| Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free? I tend to agree with atmashpere on this without even paying attention to the engineering jargon.

| Black Cat Cable's/Coppertone wires are amazing good! I have pretty much a complete Black Cat Cable loom in both of my systems and yes they are very good. I too play in the shallow end with the copper cables such as The Tube and the 3200 series. I do find it funny that Teajay gives Coppertone a rav... |
