Wire is not a tone control
Says who? Is that a “rule” you thought up yourself or did one of your narrow minded buddies tell you that?
People can do whatever they wish, they most certainly don’t need approval from the likes of you.
warmest speaker cables you've heard?
@docroasty My Cardas Cross bi-wire set can be a little warm'ish and lush with less grain (on poor recordings) compared to some other AQ Type 4,6 Apature Silver over copper, many others I've owned and tried. I'm looking to possibly compare them to Golden Reference this winter. |
@jasonbourne52 Wire is not a tone control - contrary to what the "golden ears" crowd claims! Disagree 100%. With moderate hearing, some (not all) interconnect and speaker cabling absolutely CAN function as a passive tone control, grain & edge control, even to the degree it can ruin and collapse a sound stage when using poorly designed cabling. Matching up good cabling can be rewarding in lieu of rotating through various amps or tubes like some people do obsessively. A good cable synergy can be truly rewarding when you hit the target, particularly when 50% or more of the recordings out there are not that great. Or do like some of my colleagues have and finally caved after decades and pick up a preamp with tone controls. Not for me, decent cabling can do the trick too! Home Depot zip cord ain't gonna cut it. |
