Why Power Cables Affect Sound I suspect that I am one of the few if not the only person in this discussion that has actually designed and manufactured electrical power generators used with sophisticated electronics. I have been asked by several people to write a white paper on... | |
No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need I am an engineer and designed chemical, electrical, and mechanical products. I am retired. Designed cables for instrumentation since the 80's, started recording in the 70's. The design your are suggesting might be Ok for the entry level. I would s... | |
A very good ENGINEERING explanation of why analog can not be as good as digital.. "Isn't that true for analog (vinyl in most of the above posts), too? It is an approximation, attempt to reproduce, the original event. "The microphone to the recording system, what ever it maybe is an analog device. There are no steps, no division... | |

Hot / Neutral Reversed If it was wired incorrectly at the outlet I would check the wiring all the way back to the main distribution panel and use a circuit tester just to make sure. This is a safety issue that should not be made light of in any way.As for the performanc... | |
I Need an XLR Digital Cable. I have A/B tested cables in all price ranges (up to $10K).Just based on the equipment information, regarding transport, I would suggest taking a serious look at Wireworld (good bang for buck ratio). They are in a way, my competition. I highly reco... | |
