| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I have noticed that when I express opinions similar to Mapman's here my posts sometimes do not make it to the thread -- but Mapman's posts are allowed. I wonder why? | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Jmcgrogan2,You stated, "The problem with this thread is there is no tolerance for anything except gushing about the products." And I agree. It's obvious, especially from DD's posts. He sounds like he wants to set the agenda -- with parental guidan... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz DD,With all due respect, it may have eluded you but everyone has the right to their opinions. So, it may surprise you to learn that "meaningful posts" may contain observations that you do not agree with. Cheer leading is not the only acceptable fo... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Ddraudt and Calvinj,With all due respect -- once again, it looks like you have completely missed my point. My point is not about the sonic merits of High Fidelity cables. I have been using magnets in my DIY cables for years and am well aware of th... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Calloway,My invitation is made in all sincerity. With all due respect, we live where we live. Changing locations is not an audiophile option.I do not have spares cables lying around. Just go to Ozzy's instructions on how to make the silver speaker... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Tbg,I agree with you about solder. Which is why I use none in my speaker wires. I don't think DD is as rapid as he is rabid. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Calvinj,You stated "If you like to build your own I applaud you. But, it's not going to be this good." You are welcome to drop over the next time you visit Asia so you can judge for yourself. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Mapman,You stated "... DD is a shill for this product plain and simple." It certainly looks that way, IMO. The gushing descriptions -- followed by more gushing descriptions. The fawning over Rick Schultz -- followed by more fawning. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Lak,Look up Ozzy's posts and you'll find how he does his speaker wires. I did mine with no dialectric. With speaker wires I do the magnets with my own DIY tweaks attached to Bybee GG speaker bullets. | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Swampwalker,You stated "$100K (or more) for a full loom of cables? Get real...this is one of the key reasons why people think audiophiles are crazy!"This is precisely my point. Unless you are a multi-millionaire and could not give a hoot about the... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Agisthos,What people call tweaks can make as big a difference to SQ as a component or a cable. This is what my experience tells me. I also believe that "almost all high end cables are just another flavour of sound ..." There is also "a lot more go... | |
| Grover Huffman GH RCA ZX+ cables vs... When I look back to the days when I had Huffman cables in my system it's embarrassing reading my enthusiasm and effusiveness. This also goes for my enthusiasm for Synergistic Research cables and HiDiamond cables, among others. Things change. What ... | |
| Grover Huffman GH RCA ZX+ cables vs... As I have stated earlier on the Huffman thread, IMO Huffman cables are indeed good value for the money, but no more than that -- in spite of the cheerleaders and the marketing bravado. We see this sort of thing month in and month out, year in and ... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Ddraudt,Sad Sabai with the empty life here. I believe my points are well made regarding the price/performance ratio of cables. If I look at my system and consider the components, the tweaks and accessories, and the cables that have visited my home... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Calloway,Thanks for the suggestion, but I live in Asia. It is buy and try for me, alas. Very costly, needless to say. I have gear shipped in principally from the States and the UK and I bring things over from Singapore, as well. Singapore is great... |
