    Magnet Wire differences?

    I've been using the Speltz Anti-Cable for the past few days and like it. There is the visual amusement of its skinniness apparently offering no reduction of current between my 200wpc and 85db speakers. Out of pure audio greed I was pondering getting two more pairs for these tri-wireable speakers...

    WattGate, Marinco,Furutech,Oyaide,etc real world differences?

    I was going to put together a power cord (just for fun, and curiosity) and when looking at parts options stumbled when confronted by the options. I'm not a placebo guy but I do believe in simple solid connections being a sonic benefit (for example, removing my spades & bananas and going bare...

    Tool Ænima: happy 10th anniversary!

    Just a salute to one of my desert island discs Tool's Ænima. "It's not enough. I need more. Nothing seems to satisfy. I don't want it. I just need it. To feel, to breathe, to know I'm alive."

    PS Audio DAC claims are correct?

    http://www.psaudio.com/products/digi...i_overview.asp Sorry I'm not a technical type but I know many here are very well versed on the technical front. And I know who ever is making something will say their approach is best at that price. Is PS Audio correct or just totally BS-ing? I know...

    Fun:a big fat box of Nordost arrives for a visit

    I was handed a suitcase full of Nordost cables and cords. This will be fun to play with! No I'm not a dealer just a guy dumb enough to listen. Right now I have the Baldur, Heimdall and Frey hooked up for comparison. This comes at a funny time as I'm a bit anti-cable at the moment. Money is...

    Essential electronic based music titles?

    From picking up anything that caught my ear or eye over the years I inevitably now have a number of electronic based CDs that don't seem to belong to any grouping genre other than being 'electronic'. From Wendy Carlos' electronic Beethoven to dark ambient Lustmord to Depeche Mode I realize the...

    The latest music you liked that others hated?

    I was really enjoying 'Driving Me Backwards' from the 'Here Come The Warm Jets' album by Brian Eno when SHE said "that's just awful".

    Is the price of premium connection returning to Earth?

    I ask because it seems so. Others here have been in the game longer than I and have more experience than I but it seems that there has been a recent drop in price, a boost in performance in cabling. I don't know if it's the excellent affordable offerings of the multitude of little guys poping up...

    Fooling with:APC H15 + PS Audio UPC200 + Shunyata Guardian

    My Anyone have no surge protection? thread evolved in the real world (audio, power products, real world,...um we won't go there thanks!) to my borrowing a pair of boxes from my very good nearest dealer. As I went off topic I started this thread just to share what I've heard with my stuff through...

    Anyone have no surge protection?

    I'm just wondering if anyone is an electrical nudist? I do want to try a purist approach, plug eveything into something like a PS Audio Juice Bar. No filters, no constraints. But of course there's the fear of catastrophy and like any insurance you feel better having it.

    Nordost Shiva:great little entry level power cord

    Is a power cord that can be had for $200 used entry level? I think so...generally. I didn't have a spontaneous, thunder clap of a holy smokes of a revelation, but more of an instantaneous slow smile of recognition and appreciation. Yep the Shiva is just fine. It's not running up against...

    E.A.R. 834P phonostage tweakers experience/advice?

    After way too long I finally bit the bullet and decided on the E.A.R. 834P phonostage as my upgrade. 10,000,000,000 users can't be wrong! So anyone experiment with different tubes, power cords, isolation devices and if so what results good or bad did you get? Thanks in advance. (Why...

    "We're not astronauts. We're just asses."

    Space cadets taken in by TV hoax 'Three contestants have spoken of their disbelief after being fooled into thinking they went into space for the UK reality show Space Cadets.' I want to do a poll of if you'd go ballistic at first or not but it looks like polls have been disabled. The...

    I AM AN OWL!!!

    How could I have known that as I watched a doc about owls on the Discovery channel last night, which of course focused on their extraordinary night vision with those massive pupils, that today I would be afflicted with the same condition! Or please bring your sunglasses with you to any eye...

    Fav song? Nirvana:In Utero

    I randomly chose this to play today for the first time in about 8 years and was wowed all over again by it. I thought every track was strong and had to play it in it's entirety a second time. Although having a favourite track isn't all that important, I'd be stumped if I had to choose and was...

    Are 4 word posts crap?

    I'm just wondering if anyone else has come to view the under 10 word poster as a waste of bandwidth? Or are they just more frequent and becoming glaring? Some posts are a "LOL" and half clever remark of a few words, the clever remark usually the first and easiest cultural reference to come to...

    Referencing the 'Reference' cables? D'oh!

    So which of these 'Reference' cables is better than the other? Not into jewelry so I'm not sure which is more valuable between the 'Silver Crystal', 'Golden' and 'White Gold'? And with the Kharma, is 'Grand' less than 'Supreme'? The Kharma 'Grand Reference' is $3,500 1 metre but surely it must...

    First movie you ever saw in a theatre (without your parents)

    What is the first movie you ever saw in a theatre without your parents or any other adult supervision? For my 8th birthday I was allowed to bring a friend with me unsupervised "to any movie you want to see". A two cinema theatre, as was the norm in those days, with my mom present we paid...

    How can a belt driven transport sound better than direct drive?

    In my searches for transport solutions I do come across C.E.C belt drive transports like the C.E.C. TL51X. Belt driven analog turntables I understand. But transports I do not. Someone please enlighten me. The digital data is less noisy? This seems crazy.
