| Snake River Audio Power Cables - Best Unboxing I'd like to know how much better are the Takshakas than the previous versions? Day and night or 20% more? If 20% more then picking up some used, older versions might make sense to try. The newest cables is quite a bit higher in price. | |
| "The room can totally wreck, or make, a system" @grannyring Looking forward to you hearing my room soon. I have not posted a sweep of the totally untreated room, just the partially treated room (first reflections at sides and on the ceiling slopes)[orange line]. Regardless, having a room almo... | |
| An IEC with grip IEC320 Male Over-Mold Contact Retention Inserts - Secure Sleeve Tab For Plugs It can be frustrating when this happens. I'd consider removing the Puritan connector and transferring it to your target cable as an option. | |
| Balanced vs RCA preamps I have not owned a single ended tubed preamp that did not produce unwanted noise over the cabling. I made the switch to an ARC preamp and was able to put balanced cables in all the way through from DAC to amp. Best move I ever made to significantl... | |

| NSFW pop ups. C'mon Audiogon, get it together. I use Opera and it blocks everything you ask it to. No spam for me. I will admit Edge can be faster, but I get so much less spam and advertisements. My son set me up with it - as a gamer he only wants the game and no distractions. I like it so far. | |
| Frank is gone. AVA lives on! @wideload Did you also snuggle with his cat? Frank always had a cat hanging around the house. Two of us from work were in Minny one week and we stopped in to visit Frank and company. He was of course playing Salk speakers in the shop. I wish I co... | |

| Any Nashville enthusiasts? I have left bread crumbs for folks to get onto the email list which is now at 9 but it could be more. I'll send out an email soon so we can chat among ourselves offline and get some listening sessions going. | |
| Power Distribution - to separate source components from amplification? Every component in my system is plugged into the PSM156. I've tried amps into the wall or other devices and heard no advantage. Work for me anyways. Quiet power cables help quite a bit. I presently switched to SR power cables and found them to be ... | |
| HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? Original posting question: Yes, cables were my last frontier. In short I was not a big believer in power cables but am now. Synergistic Research are predominant in my system now on the power side. My system page lists all the cables I have t... | |
