| It was 50 years ago today.... I think the Beatles songwriting, singing and arranging talents will never be equaled in the realm of pop/rock. In most interviews with musicians of that era and shortly thereafter,they say that listening to the Beatles caused them to pick up a gui... | |
| Which would you choose; Pass 250.8, arc 75SE or luxman m900u? Troy is the energizer bunny of self promotion. He's been doing it for years. Lately, the moderators have been deleting my posts re Troy--but they don't delete his promotional posts which either laud his wares or backhand the competition. It is tru... | |

| Paradigm Persona series Troy:Of course I said something nice about the Paradigms. They are good speakers--but not as good IMHO as you maintain. The only reason I bother to respond to your posts is not to criticize the gear you carry (I very much like T&A) but to crit... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound mzkmxcv:I have said everything relevant regarding my ability to distinguish between the cable manufacturers I mentioned above. I have no need to win an argument against alleged measurements as to why I do. But I can assure you it is not confirmati... | |

| Why Power Cables Affect Sound mzkmxcv:You can build your system based upon measurements. I’ll build mine, as I have over the past 40+ years, based to some extent on measurements, but to a greater extent on what I hear. As for the science you believe to be definitively on poin... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Audiotroy sells again. He just can’t help it. Like the tale of the scorpion and the frog---it’s in his nature. When I first heard the Persona 9Hs at the NY audio show a few years ago, I thought they were good for the $ but a bit on the bright side... | |

| Why Power Cables Affect Sound I can tell the difference between stock power cords and say, Audience, Audioquest or Shunyata high end cables--all of which I have, had or listened to in my system at length. I hear better and tighter bass, better microdynamics, dimensionality and... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound I feel sorry for anyone who believes that reputable high end PCs cannot improve the sound of a system in many ways--in fact, too numerous to list. | |
