A-B testing of cables I would love to read a technical analysis of speaker cable "burn in" .Is someone going to suggest that the cable needs time for the electrons to "Line Up" or "configure" in a specific order so that the cables sound good?There are no moving parts i... | |
A-B testing of cables I read an article on another site that linked to about a dozen tests done over the years on "High End" audio.I can't remember the name of the company or the owner but the test was an ABX test to see if people could tell which speaker cables were b... | |
Speakers for Office/Listening Room Paradigm models to look for? Used is OKThe BA A-40 are dirt cheap as a lot of them need the foam surrounds. That's not a problem. I've done 7 Bose 802 4" surrounds and as long as you take your time it's not difficult. I could probably buy 2 pairs ... | |
Speakers for Office/Listening Room Veroman, I'll probably use a 50-70W amp. I don't plan on cranking the music. I'll play it just loud enough so it kind of fills the room but not shake the walls. | |
Speakers for Office/Listening Room I guess that narrows the field of choices a lot when one eliminates rear ported speakers. | |
Speakers for Office/Listening Room Thanks for the input so far but I have a question.If I'm going to have these speakers either on a bookshelf or close to a wall shouldn't I be looking at speakers with no or front ports? | |
Opinions on this Cable ?? No one has any experience with this Kenwood Speaker Cable ? | |
Impressions of Belles 150 Amp? Thanks TLS49. | |
Impressions of Belles 150 Amp? Thanks you for the input. The amp is relatively inexpensive and if it has an issue I do have a bench setup with load, scope, freq. counter, variac, signal gen. etc.TS49 thanks, I should have, but forgot about impedance matching.I'm thinking of get... | |
Sleeper Vintage Tube Gear? In another post I mention wanting to rip my LP's to digital because some were never offered on CD.I have a Kenwood C1 preamp that I'm thinking of doing some upgrade mods to. I love the sound of tube gear for guitar work and am wondering if somethi... | |
Sleeper Vintage Tube Gear? Thanks for the responses guys, I accidentally hit the posting twice because I had a glitch and it looked like nothing happened. | |
Sleeper Vintage Tube Gear? Thanks Rodge827. What I guess also I'm looking for are suggestion of "what" to turn it into once I purchase and amp, preamp, or integrated amp. | |
Rip LP's to Digital Yes there are opinions on both sides of the fence on this.Some say ripping an LP to software allows one to eliminate pops, clicks, hum and preserve dynamics not heard on a CD because of compression etc. while others say a remastered CD of old mate... | |
Rip LP's to Digital Thanks for your responses. The simple route I know. I'd like to use software because I do have some older material that I'd like to digitize and take the pops and clicks out of. It was suggested to me that an E-Mu 0404 or 1212m both would do a nic... | |
Rip LP's to Digital It's not an expensive system.Kenwood M1 Amp, Kenwood C1 Preamp, Kenwood KD550 TT w/Lynn Basic Arm - needs new cartridge, Pair Dayton Wright LCM-1 speakers.I'm wondering if doing cap and other component upgrades to the M1 and C1 (as I've seen on li... |
