| Do Cables Wear Out? 05-30-06: GunbeiTvad, using a penny or dime is how old timers determined if it was time to buy a new set of tires. If you could see the top of the President's head you have enough tread left. If not, time to fork out the dough!Ah, of course...I sh... | |
| DK Design Review 05-30-06: JohnrobMost of Pathos amps utilize this design and does the BAT hybrid.As does Consonance in the Forbidden City Calaf, and Blue Circle in the FtTH. | |
| Do Cables Wear Out? 05-30-06: GunbeiTvad, would this be like checking to see if you can still see the top of Abe Lincoln or FDR's head?Dunno. Does that involve mirrors and lasers?I'd have a marginally witty response if I knew what the heck you were talking about. | |

| CAT or VAC for Shahinian Obelsik Odyssey SS amps are a overbuilt bargains, and they deliver massive current. Underrated and underappreciated by audiophiles accustomed to spending more. They are really good, IMO. | |
| Full-range Floorstanders: Can you recommend? Von Schweikert VR4 Gen III HSE are a screaming value in this price range. Yes, I have a pair listed for sale, but I'm not sure I really want to let them go...Used Tyler Signature System, Silverline Sonata II and III would be on my short list for r... |
