Synergistic Research Foundation Cables High voltage conditioning process is voodoo science! Another chapter in the Flat Earth Science textbook. | |
How far is your SUT from your Phono Pre/Preamp? Cable from SUT to phono stage should be kept short (less than 1 ft) to avoid capacitive loading/hi frequency roll off. Ground wire from SUT to phono. | |
Bose 901's in an acoustically treated room? The 901's sold well because they looked futuristic on their pedestal stands - not because of their SQ. They didn't look like all those boring box speakers of the late 60's! | |
Zavfino Fusion versus Cardas Clear/Refection: anyone compare? I read the Cardas marketing baloney! And baloney it is! | |

Bose 901's in an acoustically treated room? Regarding the 901’s: you cannot get good bass out of 9 small 3inch drivers no matter how many watts you pump into them! They are strictly midrange speakers! | |

Shielded cable between pre and SET amp Try moving your ICs around to a different location. | |
Cable curmudgeon The greater the cost the more influence confirmation bias is a factor. This applies to all components. Someone buying a $600 power cord is naturally going to hear it as "better" than a $6 cord. Blind testing between these should be done but rarely... | |
Is This the Essence of "The Audiophile Dilemma? Take a look at Jays Audio Lab on FB! He's gone through over 60 amps in his search for perfection! IMO this is certifiable behavior - time to call the men in white coats! |
