| Audioquest Design Question @jasonbourne52 - I don't disagree. In a lot of cases the technical information provided by companies producing audiophile products is laughable. In the case of AQ, the consistent message is that the best performance from interconnects (really ca... | |
| Audioquest Design Question @ghdprentice - I spent some time today chatting with AQ support and they did answer some questions for me related to the expected quality of their two interconnect series. They did say that they are moving towards the Yukon setup with the single ... | |
| I am so happy..... I'm in a similar place. I am extremely happy with my current setup, but have an itch to try some different cables, but honestly can't decide which cable or why I would want to spend a penny while I'm still enjoying my system so much. For me, it ... | |
| Prioritizing Power Cable Upgrades by System Component. @carlsbad - This sort of aligns with my experience of hearing a significant improvement with the $50ish W Audio power cable on my Pathos integrated amplifier, but not with my other components. | |
| Sometimes you have to change you I think that a variety of factors can lead to this. The most obvious one is the listeners mindset. Sometimes I sit down to listen and discover that I listening isn't the right activity for the moment. Other times I'm am convinced that my system... | |
| Dog Owners, Do Subwoofers And Loud Noises From Your Home Theater Bother Your Dog? I don't often listen to truly loud music, but our dog really doesn't seem to care. He will on occasion go to the other room if he's annoyed. I do find that certain sounds when very detailed will catch his attention, but that's not unlike a noise... | |
| Prioritizing Power Cable Upgrades by System Component. If you have not done any upgrades yet, start with W Audio power cables that you can get for about $50 each on Amazon and then pick up a true audiophile cable brand and try it in different places in your system. A W Audio power cable made a signif... | |
| 3 things I learned from using MANY interconnect cables @stevecham - My systems has been almost exclusively Blue Jeans Cables until recently because I consider them to be a quality product from a high value company. However, when I replaced their LC-1 interconnects with Audioquest Chicago my system wa... | |
| 3 things I learned from using MANY interconnect cables @johnson0134 - I really late to this party, but found your post to be interesting. 1. The price was NOT indicative of the sound quality unless you go very cheap (less than $100). I think this point is self-explanatory so I am not adding any elabo... | |
| Ever wonder why things are screwed up? @ben_campbell - Recognizing that this thread has been dead for two decades, I stumbled upon it today and think that I can add to the mind boggling stories. The place that I work is a very large business. One of the core databases that we use req... | |
| Power Cables and Wall Sockets @imaninatural - I don't know what experience you have had personally with power cables, so I'll share my very limited experience and make a recommendation. I had been curious about the possibility of power cords making an audible difference and r... | |
| bi-amping with Tube and SS amp https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/speaker-switch-that-protects-tube-amplifier Here's my old discussion for the switch that I'm using. | |
| bi-amping with Tube and SS amp @ei001h I am not an electrical engineer, but I wouldn't connect to amplifier together with speaker cables which is essentially what this would be doing. I doubt amplifiers have a lot of circuit protection from this type of load. | |
| bi-amping with Tube and SS amp No, and this isn't bi-amping. Bi-amping is for speakers that have two sets of binding posts AND the jumper is removed so that you are, in effect, driving two separate pairs of speakers with two amplifiers in parallel. To do this, you need a swit... | |
| Sub questions I have a Martin Logan Dynamo 700 subwoofer that I have setup in the forward firing configuration. Whenever it's been in the down firing configuration it would literally move around on my laminate floor. When I put spikes on it the subfloor would... |
