| Pure Silver Wire @piebaldpython Where have you been for the last 20 years? Silver speaker cables are everywhere. | |
| LoFi I would trade all of the gear that I have ever owned to have friends to listen with like I once had. Listening by myself has its own charms, but I really miss the listening/conversing of my late teens. @stereo5 That was my first thought...what'... | |
| MoFi Sourcepoint 888 Speakers @helomech and @deep_333 I want to be clear in my feelings about the Kismet Reference. I believe that Klaus, and whomever else was responsible for the design, have squeezed every bit of performance from these two fine drivers, and in some ways i... | |
| Xangsane Cryo OCC vs Sterling Silver XLRs @ted_b Correction. One of the things that I like best about the Xangsane RCA interconnects is that they specify that the terminations are solid copper with either gold or rhodium plating, unlike many American brands. | |

| Xangsane Cryo OCC vs Sterling Silver XLRs Yes, the "sterling silver" thing is something that they need to correct. It's frustrating, but apparently, it's a Chinese thing, because other vendors on the site make the same error. | |
| MoFi Sourcepoint 888 Speakers @kennyc Thanks. I think he’s a pretty brilliant guy. I was really interested in the sourcepoint 8 and 10 when they came out because I understood the advantages of concentric drivers having a little second hand experience with Tannoy speakers. Th... | |
| Xangsane Cryo OCC vs Sterling Silver XLRs They are not at all thin or bright. They are smooth and well balanced with excellent bass and detail retrieval. | |
| Xangsane Cryo OCC vs Sterling Silver XLRs @stillbuyingtoys The cryo thing is apparently new for them, because I bought a set of RCA's pretty recently and I didn't see anything that was cryo'ed. I can say that i have been using their solid core silver interconnects for several years, and... | |
| MoFi Sourcepoint 888 Speakers @mapman Thanks for that info. @immatthewj Thanks for the good wishes. | |
