| Interconnect for sweet, silky violin sound I agree with Audiofeil here. In addition, why should I care if "MIT has the market cornered"? That is irrelevant to me, since in the final analysis, my only concern is does a particular cable help give me what I'm looking for in my system ? | |
| Why don't gold based cable fans try Synergistic Frank: I agree with Blindjim, but also think you touched on something else that coincides with my impression when you said"...the general tone was not much different than my cheaper and conventional...interconnects." Speaking from my own perceptiv... | |
| Why don't gold based cable fans try Synergistic I owned the Tesla Accelerator interconnects, but found they did little for me in terms of providing a relaxed presentation. I burned them in for about 200 hours on my Frykleaner Pro and I spent a good deal of time listening to them in my system. T... | |
| Interconnect for sweet, silky violin sound Samhar...Interesting that you should mention the Purist Proteus Provectus. I seriously had been considering that along with some of the golds above prior to launching this thread. Both the golden hued and slightly dark sounding quality cables comm... | |
| Interconnect for sweet, silky violin sound Snopro...Though I haven't auditioned these, I've been reading AGon thread comments about them, and also the Jade Hybrid. For those who are following this thread,aside from what I mentioned in my lead in remarks,I seek a sound that is not sharp edg... | |

| Interconnect for sweet, silky violin sound Hi Neutron...Kind thanks for your nice comments. I'm certainly with you on the equilateral triangle arrangement. Have stuck with that for a very long time. It has always seemed to work optimally for me. Haven't checked up on the 83% matter, but I ... | |
| Interconnect for sweet, silky violin sound Though at times there are other "issues" that arise with some cables that bump the emphasis just a bit from the midrange downward, in many cases, that bump adds a more spacious, slightly dark emphasis that I find satisfying. It tends to give a mid... | |
| Tube el34 I have used the original Tesla E34Ls for almost 20 years, and still have enough in reserve(not for sale, by the way) to last me for some time. I also have a good number of the later issued JJTeslas, and yes, I have compared the two, and also feel ... | |
| Which Moscode 300 vs 600 Actually, the 600 didn't impress me as sounding solid state at all. Though I have long preferred tubes to transistors, the all tube 600 just sounded comparatively lifeless to me. And as much as I enjoyed the hybrid 300s, I have since never owned a... | |
| Which Moscode 300 vs 600 Interesting that you found the 600 "a little more lively...and maybe a little more analytical" than the 300. A number of years back I owned a pair of the 300s(which, as you know, were hybrids). I also had the opportunity to give a good listen to t... | |
| The Best Phono cable I have used the Synergistic Research Tricon, Cardas Golden Reference, Furutech AG-12, Audio Horizons Dimension and Hovland Music Groove 2 tonearm cables. In my system, the one that has consistently given me the most textured, musical and enjoyable... | |
| Groove Tubes EL34LS vs SED Generally speaking, and relative to the other biggies, EL 34s tend to be a bit bass shy, however, with the right match of components, including cables and other smaller tubes like the 12au/ax7s, one can cull some very respectable bass reproduction... | |
| Groove Tubes EL34LS vs SED By the way, For what it's worth, I have tried the Brimar 13D5s with my Air Tights. Though they present a very nice sound, I found them somewhat light in the bass (the area you are concerned with). I strongly recommend you try those Mullard "boxpla... | |
| Groove Tubes EL34LS vs SED Whodiini...Aside from the original TeslaE34Ls I also have JJ Tesla E34Ls which, to my ears, sound extremely good too. You might want to check out the BOI AudioWorks site. |
