Let's talk power cords
Actually I did.  I agree that power cords make a difference because I had first hand experience.  I bought some beefy power cords and the sound becomes noticeably better - the soundstage becomes more stable, better separation, and the mass string ...

After a near death experience, I've thought about "directionality" and I think I may have to agree with geoffkait.  Yes, the cable is directional.  For example if you send a pulse from the source to the load, the pulse travels from the sender to t... 
Will the Thiel CS2.4 fit in my car?
I plan to fold down the back seat.  The Thiels is a bit narrow so I will place one on the side in the trunk length-wise.  The front passenger side should fit one.

I once took a pair of Spendor S9 in my 1998 Accord, but the Accord is slightly bigger than my BMW 3's series.  So hopefully they'll fit.

We need some specific explanations.

some people have a talent for wasting words.

Has anyone been able to explain why power cable would make a difference?  Or this thread is basically a pissing contest.

Some people here can travel backward in time.  He claims he can measure and obtain data of an equipment before it was built.  Now I need proof and data how he can travel back in time.

I think data is only part of the equation. If anything, dataprobably comes last. If you want to build anything, first youneed a vision, some intuition, and some sound underlying reasons. Then you build a prototype. Then you measure and collect...

Believing in data regardless is in someway a dogma.  All dogma's are bad.

geoffkait could use a bit of restraints in his posting and his reasoning.  Saying I believe this or I don't believe this without exploring and thinking it through is just as bad.Einstein was known for this thought experiments.  Nobody back there w...

I am just presenting the cases.  As I mention, I am not either a proponent or opponent of "directionality".  People believe however they believe.  But I feel responsible for at least exploring the topic.

We have gone from burn-in to directionality.  I think the next pseudoscience ... err ... I mean cable topic to get a bunch of people worked up is does it make any difference if you let your speaker cables lying on the ground vs. having it lift off...

I got two hands for posting.

Another case for the "directionality" people, is that even if both ends are not being bias differently and the current is truely AC, on the drivingterminal in this case is the amp, the voltage is always slightly higherthan the other end since ther...
