| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Thsalmon, we are probably just looking at it from different perspectives i.e. you saying that the signal only degrades after it leaves the component and me thinking that it can be "better presevered" by using more suitable cabling. In effect, i th... | |
| Perreaux P250 Problem Probably good advice from both Rw and Mr Via. If DW Labs is the place that i think it is, they used to be the sole warranty facility for Perreaux back in the early days. I know that they were up somewhere in NY. Contacting Audio Advisor might be a... | |
| I can't really hear a big difference Nice post Newbee. Sean> | |
| Review: Purist Dominus Interconnect Nrchy, i don't think that anyone here was actually advocating "stealing" from Albert or anyone else for that matter. I think that Albert has more than shown himself to be a complete gentleman and would garner nothing less than the ultimate in resp... | |
| Listener magazine defunct ?? ahahaha..... Attainable Audio, that's a good one. I lost on that one too : ( Sean> | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Let me clarify my response a bit.Changing from Cable A to Cable B can IMPROVE the performance of a system, not necessarily take it "sideways" or "tune it" as per someone's personal preference. The cable change can achieve this by actually improvin... | |
| Has The Maker ever seen yours? Tim, that was a good question for Twl. What we really want to know is, as a small manufacturer, does he expense account all of the times that he takes this "client" out for breakfast, lunch, dinner, entertainment, etc.. : )I recently read in Bound... | |
| Cartridge frequency response specs The frequency response of most cartridges vary DRASTICALLY as the load in the phono stage, tonearm cable and interconnects are altered. IAR covered this in Journal 5 to a very great extent. Moncrieff went so far as to take 54 high end cartridges a... | |
| Listener magazine defunct ?? I like BFS ( Bound For Sound ) but would say that Marty's interaction with specific individuals & manufacturers does influence his likes / dislikes. I think that BFS is more honest than many of the other mag's out there, but not to the point t... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck I have to agree with Mr Crump. Knowing that Bob Crump markets his own line of audio cables ( TG Audio ) and therefore has a LOT to loose by saying what he did adds further weight to his statements. The fact that he is a business partner with John ... | |
| Small monitors for a dear aunt The less expensive route:An NAD integrated ( which is warm and smooth ) with a set of smaller Pinnacles ( either 6 1/2" or 8" two way's / tend to sound a TAD bright / pretty efficient ) should work well together. The more expensive route:Musical F... | |
| I can't really hear a big difference My experience with CD players is that the average ones sound like average ones. When you hit a really good one, you will know it instantaneously.Having said that, i have to agree with several of the points made above. 1) Each component will only b... | |
| Outdoor antenna setup Folks, i understand how all of this stuff works. I make my living working on, modifying and using radio communications gear. I also know that as frequency rises, ground wave transmission distance falls off. I also know that various modes of operat... | |
| Outdoor antenna setup While i forgot to look up line losses for RG-6 quad shield vs low loss foam twin-lead at work today, i just happened to run across an "antique" GC Electronics catalogue that i had handy from 1976 !!! In it, i can find a multitude of antennas that ... | |
| Outdoor antenna setup I don't want to completely contradict TWL's post, but those figures do not sound right to me at all. I think that what i've read relates to reception distances being limited to appr 15 degrees beyond the horizon. This is strictly discussing "groun... |
