| Moving away from inefficient/low impedance speaker in order to move to a Tube Amp +++ @daveyf right you are, BOTH ( or more ) transformers…power supply , output…and ? | |
| Moving away from inefficient/low impedance speaker in order to move to a Tube Amp i suppose IF ya think of mechanical amplifiers aka compression driver / horn and cone breakup as not lossy, a bit of uniform compression ain't the devil you think it is… For those seeking stunningly well designed and executed output transformers ... | |

| Audioquest speaker cables both models of AQ you cite are available in copper or silver. I use a 30” pair of silver in my Reference system, a 7’ shotgun biwire copper set in my other system. | |

| Bluesound Node (2021) PS upgrade to Teddy Pardo; is it worth it? some thoughts reterminate the Cullen C7 to IEC for the Pardo. I use a Kimber PK-10 on my Unitiserve Pardo LPS along w Stillpoints and an ancient VPI Magic Brick. I think this is a case where the frugality of Nobosound springs may be worthwhile… H... | |
| Audioquest speaker cables I looked at your system, i think the copper might sound better w brick fireplace and the B and W tweeter. Save some significant $ You could also try single cable w jumper to ease in cost wise, then add 2nd run later. jim | |
| Audioquest speaker cables Yes. Both @ctsooner @gdnrbob have the better AQ after hearing both. 15’ is a significant performance hit, no matter the cable - i am sure you are aware. Yes the AQ can and should be two sets of cables, so no concern about awg. hope this he... | |
