Virtual Dynamics -- what has it beaten?

Cosmic, can't you just swap the pos and neg leads at the speaker for one pair?

In performance vs. cost? Everything, IMHO

leme,
Thankyou for your comment. The problem isn't one solved by swapping the + and -. In a biwire setup you will have phase relationships with the mid/highs and the bass. If using two different cables on the same speaker of two different lengths you will get phase errors according to Rick. As it sits now with the Auditions on the mid/high and the HT Pro-11's on the bass things sound pretty damn good. This is with the Audition cables on everything else as well. 3 PC's, 2 IC's. I will have more to say once the Audition biwire speaker cables come.

Slipknot1 - the performance vs. the cost on the Audition package is excellent in my opinion. I'd like to hear what the Nite cables sound like but alas I haven't won the lottery yet. =;-)

Another thing: My preamp has absolute phase inversion which inverts the phase angle 180°. This has the effect on some material of extending the soundstage way back. This can be done from a switch on my remote. Interesting but I don't use it too often.

for me it has beaten (speaker cable wise) (i now have the reference cable.

analysis plus 9's. QED's silver 12, Cambreidge flat solid core, power snake,a bunch of MIT, alumiloy and a few others.

Not in all aspects mind you, all of the cables had their own sound. But when doing the qualities vs cost thing, the references have won big time in my system.

cheers

Cosmic_void,

I'm with you. I would love to get into the Nite package as well, but alas, my spouse would freak over "wire" costs.

The last batch of VD Power 3's that came into the house caused a: "you spent how much on extension cords?" Compared what i could have spent on a PC that comes close to what Rick's products do for my system, she has no idea ;)
