Room rearrangement. Cable question
I've never heard of suspending speaker cables. . what's the rationale behind that? There's several. Most likely the main one is vibration control. Check out my system, and don't take my word for it but read the comments from people who have heard it. Deborah for example, had no idea, heard it with her eyes closed. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367 This is also a good example of how to do a system that maximizes performance per dollar by minimizing wire length, among other things. |
@hilde45 " there are some things that just aren't done; such as drinking Dom Perignon '53 above the temperature of 38 degrees Fahrenheit. That's as bad as listening to the Beatles without earmuffs” Perhaps. . .perhaps not. I remember reading about a guy Mike Lavigne on another blog, who supposedly was convinced his power cables made an auditory difference, but under controlled, blinded conditions, he couldn't tell the difference between his $10,000 power cables and the standard OEM power cables that come with components. |

Moving the equipment rack from between the speakers and leaving the amp there significantly improved the sound of my system. The advice from my dealer and long time audio comrade told me that to break between the preamp and amp was the one to make. Shortened speaker cables can really make an aditional improvement. I trust him and did that this time. For runs of 20 or 30 feet… single ended RCA are fine. |
