| Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers Seems I hit a nerve. Nah, we just have nothing better to do. Which Luxman do you have? | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks Pretty sure this guy knows what he is talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOKjgiZ7kbQ | |
| Directional wires/cables Much simpler to try both directions yourself than to try to understand the elusive reasons why Absolutely @kennyc Some of us just like to hurt our brains every once in a while. I recall reading that Jay, the proprietor of Audio Bacon websit... | |
| Directional wires/cables What happens when you flip off a light switch? Light goes off immediately. I would interpret "immediately" to mean small fractions of a second after flipping the switch, after the energy in the lines has completely been absorbed by the load. J... | |
| Directional wires/cables @jea48 The Energy travels from the source >>> to the load (in one direction) Okay, I got a simpler question, what if the load is disconnected before the energy gets there, what happens to that energy? | |

| Directional wires/cables @jea48 I believe that’s why Teflon, for one, is used instead of cheap PVC insulation. Other than a vacuum, the best dielectric is air: Check out the construction of Inakustik and their very transparent communications regarding audio cable con... | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks Is he referring to the neutral/ground bar? All the busbars- neutral, hot and ground. The breakers will snap into the busbar, you want paste between the two, so you just need to paste the breaker contacts. Likewise if one wants paste in their r... | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks @chuck I see the article was produced back in 2016 and updated since. Quite the sound room they have at MSB- I am sure every one of those suggestions were employed in the construction of this room. I've often wondered how does one know when to sto... | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks Yeah who knows; hospitals are great places to pick up strange stuff. And It's amazing all the hazardous materials our older buildings were made from, like lead and asbestos, not to mention what else may be up in attics: Mold, other spores, feces f... | |
| Check This Out! The biggest difference to me was in this one area; at lower volume levels, 40-50db average, the Galle sounded a little more vibrant and impactful. That's interesting. I wonder what it is that would be affect that? There is another thread goin... | |
| A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks Which will put me back up in the attic again, which is my lest favorite plaace in this house, I hear ya; wear a dust mask. |
