| Why Power Cables Affect Sound I tried some version of the AC9 a while ago, and the darned thing was so heavy that it almost pulled itself out of the socket on the back of the unit. Returned. | |
| Too much of a good thing... Wireworld. | |
| PMC Speakers @rosami What are you driving the Thiels with? I endorse Milpai's advice. BTW, I went from B&W to Thiels to ProAc, then to PMC.Spendors are the other obvious one for you to listen to, but again there's limited availability. Try if you can to... | |
| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? Inches vs. feet. Hence the use of the binaural recording head."hanging in front of the speakers".

| Recommendation for DAC needed. No mention of Denafrips? I'm shocked. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Tonight: Dvorak piano concerto. I can't imagine there can be much better ambassadors for a piece than Sviatoslav Richter and Carlos Kleiber. That being said, I think I see why it hasn't caught on more--not as inspired, or at least not as catchy,... | |
| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? @rvpiano Semantics, yes. Imaging and soundstaging are not the same thing, but *are* complementary. Simply (simplistically?) imaging~clear definition/location of a particular sound source in the space; soundstaging~the sonic painting of the limi... | |
