| Build me a system for my 11' by 15' room Hi. Since we know in Audiophile jargon $6,000.00 means $8,000, I priced it accordingly. Harbeth speakers, ($2500.00) Sound Anchor speaker stands ($250.00), CJ Premier 11a tube amp ($2000.00), Naim CDX player ($1800.00) , Placette passive preamp (7... | |
| Speltz Anti Cable Speaker Cable Hey Rsrex, I had a licensed electrician install a dedicted AC panel along with a dedicated ground for my system, separate from the general house ground. I know I am OK up to the first ground rod. I will have to check on the Speltz cable to the sec... | |
| Speltz Anti Cable Speaker Cable Not sure about for speaker applications, but it is interesting this has come up. While doing some yard work yesterday I noticed the ground wire going from one copper grounding rod to the other was dirty and not making a good connection. I decided ... | |

| Biwire posts; how to connect? Hi, I would run the stripped wire all the way through to both posts. On the other hand, I would recommend buying a double run of Speltz Anti-Cables. | |

| Harbeth SHL5 compared to Merlin VSM ? I have owned both speakers but in two totally different systems. I think for the money the Harbeth's are hard to beat. | |
| What is the best way to sell a record collection? Send me an email. I may be interested in buying. | |
| Ear protection for concerts Hi, I just got back from an ENT. Complaining of ringing in my ears. Guess what? Tinnitus, and some mild hearing loss. 4-6 K minus 2dB. They recommended a company that custom fits earpieces for musicians that are designed to lower dB level without ... |
