btw, Simply Q---would you care to disclose why you only respond to cable oriented threads on Audiogon?

I wasn't saying anything about claims or not---just about that it was one place you could read more about it.chill out Simply Q.

you can read a much more detailed analysis on the US Patent website---Bill Low patented this technology. then make up your own mind.that said, all the reviews i've read say its difficult to hear a difference, so ymmv bigtime here. 
How does the Bryston BDA-1 DAC sound?
macdad- can you compare the BDA1 to the Berkeley? I have often thought about upgrading to the Berkeley from my Bryston and using the volume control.... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Bacardi- i'm sorry, i'm still confused. minimal bass compared to longer running components? what does that mean?in general, i'm not sure why a MIG should have break-in at all---no current is running through it at all. either they work or don't. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Ted- noticed for some time that the Tesla technology is "patent pending"---despite the fact this thread is 3 years old.I would love to read about it in more detail, but don't see it on the US patent site--can you post up the link if its been appro...

Audience vs. Auditorium speaker cables

Zu Soul Superfly
Putting basic room treatments is certainly better than the audiophile who has 10k+ in cables, vibration pods, racks, stones, rca caps, cd demag machines, power conditioning boxes, power cords, voltage machines, etc. unfortunately i know too many o... 
Amp s choices to match with Wilson Sophias ?
you might try a search. this topic has been discussed ad nauseum. 
How close dynaudio s1.4 to c1
I strongly disagree with the statement the 1.4 is 95% of the C1 as well as the statement they have better bass than the C1.To me, the 1.3SE is better than the 1.4. The C1 is in a completely different level---as should a speaker that is over 2x the...

for you Zu guys---i just ordered a Triode 845SE integrated amp for my Definition 2s. It's a 20 watt SET driven by 845s, of course. Can report back on the sound---but the build quality at its price level seems impressive.I also have a Mcintosh MA66...
