| Why Power Cables Affect Sound I have a scenario for you. Talking with my friend via cell phones, he is driving home from work. 1st, using his vehicle's bluetooth system. He gets home, no longer Bluetooth, he is now on speaker phone, walking from his vehicle to his house. Now h... | |
| Which power cords should I look at? @dangcaonguyen. The CJ Premier 140 was definitely a step up over the mono 12's in sq. If I remember correctly, the supplied cord on the CJs were 16 gauge, maximum 14, and were 8 - 10 ft. Why a few feet of ac cable at the amps input ( or at the inp... | |
| Passive pre-amp/Quicksilver Mini Monos I own a Luminous Audio Axiom, Walker Mod, 3 in, 2 out, single ended remote unit. Never heard as much subtle, but yet dramatic, pieces of musical and spatial information contained in my recordings, until this. Incredible. HNY. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Nuforce STA200 The poster of the blown amp might be a competitor ( or owns a competitors amp ) at or near the $499 price. You never know. I do know a few individuals who returned the STA 200 because it did not work in their system, but the majority of people who... | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed Not only would you be the " skeptic king ", as you said, you will be known as the " listening test king ". Did you hear differences the 1st time around, when you replaced the ac cables, that you would need to repeat it ? If it makes you happy, jus... | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed barnettk, yes, it is all good. I do not think people being smarter than you is actually a true statement, as your test showed quite a lot of smartness. If anything, listening experience might be all that some of us have, to a greater degree. Your ... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! And this is 1 of the many reasons I stopped posting here. Happy New Year to all......and always......Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed barnettk. I appreciated your response, but I have to say, if you knew me from reading any of my posts, you would have seen that I was just playing devils advocate, and was completely messing with you. I hear pretty much everything ( specifically w... | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed I don’t know about this test. You and this audiophile buddy, discussed what it was you would be listening for : " imaging, dynamic range and overall SQ ". So, it was already " in your minds " that these differences would exist. 2ndly, 6 times ? Wa... | |
| Is it all in my head?? Thank you guys. " But sometimes the information they provide is presented as fact ". Yes, they present it, but they are not proving it. They are the ones looking for proof, for reasoning, for scientific data, as to why we are claiming sonic differ... | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed Barnettk, I cannot believe you have been " pulled in ". You already observed the break in process. Or, were you imagining it the whole time. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed Morrow, from their beginning, was always into burn in. Geoff, yes. After several years, he and his team, this summer, introduced " dramatic and improved " changes in his cable design. Read about it. Once on his website, click the box " About Techn... | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed It reads from the center out, and changes rotational speed as it plays ( faster to slower ). Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed I was an investor with a company that made cd rings ( does not matter the company or particular product ). I lost some money. I am a believer in green markers on the inner and outer edges of cds and dvds ( dvds were not available at that time ). T... | |
| Is it all in my head?? Elizabeth, it is easier to simply ignore the naysayers. I enjoy your posts, and so much appreciate your enthusiasm as a music listener. You, I and others are enjoying our money spent with after market power cords ( I still enjoy building them ), a... |
