Audio hobby complete - tweaks are great
Quote: Patrick.. Again another self-promoting thread.... ooh another valhalla tweak. Reading your threads makes me not even want to think about updating parts of my system. Anyway, I think you do this for the attention.... I found a link to a forum in which you pretend to not know...- peelax

The advantage of aftermarket power cables
Quote: I don't live next to a "smelting plant", nor does my apartment have a "lot of brownouts" but the power conditioner (a Furman PL-8 Series II) I added to my system definitely eliminated the hum that was produced when I plugged my amp and CD player directly into the wall outlets.

Cardas Myrtle Wood Blocks
I think all these threads degenerating into the same boring aruements is ridiculous. Although I agree with people like bigshot I think it would be nice to just leave these threads alone.

Anyone seen the million dollar cable challenge?
BTW I think if not one single "qualified" human being can tell the difference between these cables and win the money this forum should be renamed to "Paranormal Jewellery for your HiFi, and speakers", just to clear things up for everyone.

Anyone seen the million dollar cable challenge?
Quote: Sitting on a couch with headphones on is nothing like wine tasting, and sound is nothing like wine. Wine is an organic product that varies in a hundred different ways from batch to batch. It requires a keen sense and experience to discern all of the subtleties. While music itself has...- peelax

does quality of optical cables have effect on SQ?
Quote: 2. Errors This usually causes very significant changes in the sound, often loud popping noises but occasionally less offensive effects. Any data loss or errors in either are a sign of a very broken link which is probably intermittently dropping out altogether...- peelax

It is important to make sure your optical is plugged in the right way round too, contrary to popular belief glass does have a direction, preferring to let photons flow one way more than another. As manufacturers generally don't label the correct direction of photon flow it is important to...- peelax
