Well... guess I have to jump in the rabbit hole of speaker cables... lol
Are the Belden really that bad? Can they be the cause of the raspy bad guys?
I am really looking forward to this... not so much for my wallet... she is scared.
Looking forward to the great experience here on the GON...

Knownothing: thank you. I am retired and my wife is disabled so I am doing this as easily as I can. My plan is this: 1. New amp 2. New spk cables 3. Check the preamp ( for some reason there are peeps who think the Mac is harsh) 4. Look into a DAC or CD player... I would prob need to buy used. 5. Gin and tonics and music...lol |
Here's something for perspective http://www.roger-russell.com/wire/wire.htm#conditioner Great info to help with your decisions. Some suggestions/advice(not necessarily here) really should be questioned. |
Great reading from that link in previous post. 😬 “Along with green magic markers on CDs and audio bricks is another item called the wire conditioner. The claim is that unused wires do not sound the same as wires that have been used for a period of time. The device supposedly simulates what program material will do for the wire. This is called a break-in period. The thinking is that, like a new pair of shoes that are stiff when first put on, repeated use will make them more pliable and therefore more comfortable. It would therefore seem that used speaker wire and used audio and video interconnects would be worth more than the new wire and interconnects simply because they have been used already. There could be a big savings in time and expense by doing conditioning on your own or purchasing the device. Unfortunately, this is just another way of making money. It can be considered as another “quack” remedy machine.” |
