| Thoughts on Paradigm Studio 60's? I have to disagree with the ear adaptation idea as the cause. Speakers, however need more break-in than one day of playing, so sonic changes of further break-in and adaptation are likely to have some effect. Experimenting with speaker placement co... | |
| Cables to mitigate CD glare -upper mids/lower hi's I would not add this if it was not so on point: Email Purist Audio and/or ask around about their HDI i/c. | |

| Mail Boxes Etc. now to be called the UPS Store I am looking for forward to the change. Mail Box Etc. is sooo much better than my local UPS. A Box employee told me that UPS shipping rates out of Mail Box will be cheaper after UPS takes over than than they are right now. I know its hard not be b... | |
| Hales Revelation 3:Oldie but is it still a Goodie? I choose Hales over these, Paradigm B&WLinnPSBMagnepanMartin LoganMonitorRuark...and it was a no-brainer. If you decide to buy, you may want to find a pair with the four threaded inserts for spikes, instead of the ones that simply rest on thre... | |
| Back to the audio future, going backwards While I have not needed to downgrade in order to better enjoy my stereo, I have come to a point where I care less about audio and subsequently about the sonic defecits in my stereo. And now that I have started to invest in other interests that hav... | |

| My name is.....and I am a compliationaholic. Compilations make for good probes, but compared to albums, they are disjointed, making them tough and relatively meanlingless to sit through. Soundtracks do a little better just because the tracks are at least tied together by the film. I don't kn... | |
| This Sistrum stuff works It would have been beneficial to just ask sistrum for their technical explanation, post the exp. here, and analyze it. At least you'd be on the same page, ummm, or closer to the same page. But I get the drift that you all maybe a little too tired ... | |
| Cryo treated wires? I don't need to test or read to know that any reasonable change in an ultimate resolution system will affect the sound. Similar to what I stated at the beginning, I would be surprised if cryo had no affect/benefit on your nice system, Garfish. But... | |
| Cryo treated wires? Good suggestion, Hdm. I am not sure how cryo, that particular outlet and my system will react together. I live in an apartment and my audio interest is waning, so I may never know :) In a high resolution system, I am sure the differece would be ob... | |
| Cryo treated wires? I didn't comment on your integrity, just your reasoning. You know, I could (should!?) buy something cryo'd, but I still couldn't make any conclusions about how cryo affected what I just bought. I would still know what I know now. And yes, I have r... | |
| Hum Issues - Rega P-25 w/ Grado Reference Platnum There was a Stereophile from way back when that contained an article about covering (part) of the plinth with adhesive mu-metal. It worked, but I don't know whether there was any stubborn residue left by the adhesive. Maybe a Stereophile, Agon, AA... | |
| Cryo treated wires? Garfish - Rainchild wants to know what cryo does. I do not have cables that differ only in cryoness, so I can't comment. I have as much knowledge of its effects as you do. I would be surprised if there was not a difference under certain to many ci... |
