| My system's high frequencies hurt my ears I have tried Blue Haven and it is nice but it is quite bright and slightly etched so consider another cable. Agree with pointing speakers away from towards you. Try straight forward. Beyond that, soft dome tweeter speakers -- perhaps Dynaudio or D... | |
| Bruce Springsteen, We are alive... Its posts like yours that make me buy music without stopping to sample, usually leading to disappointment. | |

| Most forgiving high end speaker 10k-20k? While i can see the point of trying to make poor recordings sound better to make more music worth listening to, and i think you can find many forgiving speakers, but will you forgive yourself for a speaker that does not show you what is recorded ?... | |
| Wilson audio Sasha vs Gryphon Atlantis I have heard Wilson before with Levinson, Gamut, AR and some others I forgot. Heard Atlantis with Gryphon, MBL and Ayre (from memory). Dont ask models. Both V. good, but not to my specific taste. | |
| What's your favorite lyric from a song? "I started out with nothing and I still got most of it left" Seasick Steve. Not my favourite but this line appealed to me recently. |
