| Longer speaker cables or interconnects Thank you steakster. It seems the preponderance of opinion is to put the amps near the speakers. However, I wonder about the wisdom of placing two Julius Futterman OTL3s converted to triode with eight 6LF6 tubes each on the floor next to Altec 604... | |
| Interconnects and non-believers Somebody - was it Prof? - mentioned speaker break in. For what it it is worth, my speakers sound different depending on weather conditions: temp, humidity, air pressure etcand somebody posted a link to The Cable Cooker. At first I thought it was a... | |
| Sellers and "Ambiguity" or "Integrity" of "item as described" descriptions on eBay What’s confusing about the experience is that the guy had a 100% rating on over 5000 transactions. He was clearly deceptive and dishonest. | |
| Sellers and "Ambiguity" or "Integrity" of "item as described" descriptions on eBay Wow, this is an old thread from 7 to 12 months ago, suddenly getting picked up again. I never paid for the item as I had bought it with Paypal credit and then withheld payment. I canceled my Paypal credit account and sent them a cease and desist l... | |

| Interconnects and non-believers Bleeds, nice try, but you and so many cable cultists and marketers here conflate my point. I am not saying that there is no difference, I am saying that the differences, small as they are, do not justify the exhorbitant prices asked for from audio... | |

| Talk but not walk? “I think most folks on a site like this who are serious about getting good sound listen carefully to everything, read up on things, and their room at home is the only ‘real empirical testing ground’ available. Once the tests are successful and m... | |

| Interconnects and non-believers Shawshank, people may hear the difference. Assuming that the difference is not a placebo effect or confirmation bias, that’s not the point. The point is: is it worth $12K? I suppose if you are spending $600K on a pair of Magico Ultimates, than wha... | |
| Building a listening room from scratch It’s a gut rehab. Left the plaster on the brick wall. Firred in the walls by 5”, filled in with rock wool. In Newburgh. | |
