| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? Until then I can be found elsewhere on the Internet properly explaining this subject to people who are actually interested in learning something So you're on a mission. You're an audio Knights Templar, out to save the world from itself and destroy... | |
| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? I remember when soda was 10 cents and they came out of a vertical rack that was hard for a kid to pull on. Sometimes they'd stick. I also grew up with this black ring around my finger from dialing for those rock concert tickets. And I do remember ... | |
| What is the most important component in your system. I'd like to contradict myself and now say it's my integrated (or amp).My Kinki Studio EX-M1 has completely changed the way I see, and hear, things. A game changer for sure.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? Do you keep a stash of meth next to your keyboard? | |
| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? You seem close enough to an expert - do you think they’ll do that? Or can I expect to be able to sit around here and make fun of the aforementioned individuals indefinitely? Dude, knock yourself out. Also, I've never flagged a post in my life. Peo... | |
| Kinki Studio EX-M1 The gain is high, comparatively speaking, but I now enjoy not having to crank things up to hear them. Also, with 256 steps, each @ .5db, I can finely tune things, sometimes from track to track. I find this most useful and wonder why no one else ha... | |

| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? You're wrapped way too tight for folks around here. You're not the first to go around, banging your drum about double blind testing and proffering wagers, which the mods frown upon. You'll find out soon enough. | |
| Value of burn/break in? I like to listen as my new component breaks in and occasionally speed it up with Ayre's Irrational but Efficacious! CD system enhancement disc.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday! Congrats on your epiphany! I have the lowly (😃) Marantz SA-15S2b SACD player and concur with your findings. Better base, extension, clarity and whatever else you care to cite. I primarily listen to CDs and the occasional SACD and it can sound top ... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? Glupson,I can see your viewpoint as a starting off of sorts, to those of us who've racked up some years in this hobby. Looks were important to me as a beginner as well but I've gotten over that a long time ago. Now I just rely on my ears, looks be... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? I suspect that some, probably not all, of the buyers fall in the similar category. They want finishing touches to their equipment, a final stroke they may feel is missing. Something that, at least in their minds, matches the rest of their system. ... |
