| Bi-wire Cable Choices?... Tvad, I just hooked up the MAS signatures in a true bi-wire configuration and compared them to the Canares in the same configuration. In both cases, I left the Dakiom feedback stabilizers on. The Canares sounded great! The MAS Signatures sounded e... | |
| Bi-wire Cable Choices?... Thank you. I've read another post asserting that there's no benefit to bi-wiring as described above because the separated leads bridge back together at the speakers' binding posts if those posts are mounted on a metal plate. Supposedly, the biwiri... | |
| Review: Dakiom A103 and R103 Tweak Rpatrick,I'll take your word on that one. For now, it's going to stay at room temperature. | |

| Bi-wire Cable Choices?... I own Canare Star Quad 4S11 too!! I never really compared them to anything else. They seem pretty good to me. | |
| Review: Dakiom A103 and R103 Tweak Tvad, it IS remarkable that they vary (or are perceived to vary) so much in their sonic attributes among various systems. Given all the different equipment designs and musical tastes, it doesn't necessarily surprise me. Your points about "objectiv... | |
| Review: Dakiom A103 and R103 Tweak The listening experience is a subjective one, to be sure. In my system, with Paradigm Monitor 100 V3's and their metal dome tweeters plus solid state amp and preamp, the highs didn't seem rolled off but were tamed--but still more detailed and swee... |
