Mogami wire quality?
Mogami is high quality wire. Many love it and those that do seem to stick with it and forget about wires. Others try it and move on to other brands, usually saying its a bit dull or lifeless in their systems. I like it a lot for pro audio and for ... 
Any word on possible new line of AudioQuest power cables?
AQ makes great products. But I find the product lines, names and descriptions so confusing I have avoided purchasing them.  Perhaps working with a dealer would help. Water, river, oaktree, etc.  
Upgrading power cord.. proven upgrade? or crap?
Ill give two somewhat contradictory observations. First I agree that technically it doesnt make sense that two meters of good power connections would change the sound. Like high end speaker wires going into pedestrian wires inside the speaker cros... 
Reclocking device for the Schiit Gungnir?
A lot of the discussion on dacs - particularly schiit - is on specs rather than sound. if the chord spunds better why not stay with it? we all agree specs dont correlate exactly to good sound.  
Apple TV and Sound Quality
Im sure many will disagree but I compared the apple tv optical out to my macbook pro optical out and usb out to my rega dac and found zero audible difference. This was to my rega dac to my hegel h200 amp using "lossles" files. I can hear a differe... 
I NEED AN AMP!! BUT WHAT?? HELP PLEASE!!
i second the class d audio - great sounding very powerful and affordable amp. could look at emotiva too.  
Electronics for Harbeth, Especially Monitor 40 series
they work very well with hegel amps  
Doubling a Set of Speaker Cables
how can you effectively connect double runs to the binding posts?  
New Audioquest cables equivalent to Audioquest to the old ones
i find the entire aq line very confusing which is why I havent purchased them.  
Hi Resolution download - question on authencity of the files
Correct - the downloaded high res files are very etched sounding and hard to listen to. also they seem to lack bass. i purchased them all from known online companies. I use macbook - audirvanna - a rega dac and also a halide hd dac, to hegel h200 ... 
Hi Resolution download - question on authencity of the files
I have purchased about 15 high res from hdtraks. I frankly do not like any of them and a few compare unfavorably to my ripped files from cd - for example, two rem albums. it could be me or my system but thats my experience.  
Tekton 1812 ?
Eric makes great speakers. I would like to hear feedback as well on these. However, aims of this design dont really appeal to me. I dont want a club or rock concert in my living room as much as I love those experiences. For me a pair of Harbeths a... 
Bob Weir "Blue Mountain"
thanks for the rec. i like posts about goid music to check out. one question - by album you meant you bought the vinyl or another format?  
Building second system around Harbeth P3 esr
just reading the headline i was going to say croft too. great match. others that would go well are the vinnie rossi lio, and hegel is great but no phono stage.  
Vocals and upper midrange too forward?
In general I agree with Marty - this is one reason I dont like a lot of "high end" speakers and prefer classics like harbeth. Bigger issue is if you dont love them now - and its clear you do not -  its unlikely tweaking will help. You might end up...
