Since my “End of Life" Phonostage have materialized I got exposed to a temptation of finding a “right” cable between my tonearm to the phonostage. The most critical cable between the step-up transformer and phonostage does not exist in my system anym...

Thanks, Paul, I defiantly not going to do DIY cables. I went to

… and “designed” my own cable. It cost penny, it might not be good but it will be with AES/EBU specifications and it will make me start d...

Paul, o/
apparently you use Neotech cables (under another brand), I would like to ask you if you have experience with their rectangular cables and if they have a specific (interesting) sound?

I have absolutely no idea what you people are pissed about
the new MIT’s ACC 268 cables. You need to separate in your heads two separate things.
The MIT new cable as a product and the MIT new cable as a concept.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I did not say how my saga with APS Pure Power regenerator finish but it never finished. Since the end of the last year the regenerators is sitting in my closet and I have sent the unit’s main board to APS people for the “re...

[quote user="drdna"]I had tried this before, a few years back, using parallel runs for interconnect and speaker cable of uninsulated and insulated wire of different metals. The end result was that the tonal result was very similar and basically the t...

[quote user="Gregm"][quote user="be"]I recognise your observations about the Ag vs. Cu sound, but instead of mixing the two materials I think it is better to change the diameter.I experienced 0.5 mm silver wire to be too thin soundvice, have you trie...

I have a question, person someone have investigated it. I have my DAW, with all it fans and sitting it basement, then I have a bunch of the 10-15” cables to all of my peripherals running to my listening room. What however I do not have in listening ...

Hi Alex,I am sorry, what you claim can not be. No cap is going to separate bass instruments better.The brilliance of the 834p circuit is that the EQ also uses the miller capacitance of the tubes in a very brilliant way. The power supply caps are very...

When I said “cable” then I meant whatever cable might mean, the sonic qualities and whatever comes with it. You cartridge with it 2mV drives a cable to a transformer, for instance 1M that has impedance, capacitance and so on. The transformer has 26dB...

I have been thinking about this video and am now seeing another cut on the shear magnitude of what Brian has demonstrated here. I mean, this guy has just crushed Newton under his own apple! Smashed him to pieces, made apple sauce of him if you will a...

I do not think Genn is close to an answer, he spent too much time to read the Lehnitsky’s brain-massage that made him to feel this way.
I am sure that there are some kinds of very pragmatic, predicable and manageable explanations for the effect that...

I do not know how about 5dB attenuation
via cable but for sure cables sound very different. Hey you are talking to a person
who have a small fortune spent for wiring my entire system with vintage Dominos
and I never felt that it was waste of money...

In my case, there are only three 12 gauge wires in each AC cord. I only connect a hot and a "neutral" (circuit ground) at both ends. The "safety ground" wire is "lifted" at the amp (or whatever; it runs short/is not connected to the component-end p...

Thanks, Jim, and thanks to everyone who replied in direct emails. Summarizing what was advised to me it looks like as now the input impedance of the amp is around 4.5K. That was roughly what I would like to have, though I would like to go even furthe...

The benefits of treating wire are not truly debatable – put in this way I would not debate it. My interests is not to debate the benefits but rather to be able to confirm that atoms were aliened by cryo treatment. You are right – none of the wire man...

Chris,
I’m not familiar with PHY-HP cables from France. January the cotton-insulation on the cables is very nice idea but there is a lot more to it then juts the isolation material. Anyhow. If you do not mine then I would like to keep the subject of...

If I have learned anything in my time with audio, it is that EVERYTHING can make a difference because we do not understand all of the interactions. The question is where do the differences come from? The level of perception where these things become ...

Hi Romy,I am designing the power supply chassis for the DSET at the moment and hope that you can remember some things about how you managed the grounding.All power supply components up to but not including the filter caps for each power supply will b...

It's quite a marvel from what I can tell now. The overall sound is somewhat on the darker side but the preamp is still breaking in (although I gave it 30h benchtop burn in with the frybaby track). I also suppose it reveals the Dannoy and the room int...

If a car engine does not stat then among zillion reasons why it does not start there are only two main reasons - there is nothing to burn or there is nothing to light up. The very same I think is about my Second Tonearm. Since all cartridges on this ...

We have long spoken of the "electrical" event as something that is +/- "routed" by cables rather than being "contained" by the cables.Whatever the "source" or "nature" of the electricity, the gear does use it. Sometimes "conditions favor electricity...

I need to note that the methods that Purist uses are superbly powerful. A few years ago, inspired by what POD does I did number experiments damping cables with liquid. It is astonishing how sound was affected with different liquids. I was running at ...

The BP30-2 post has hex head. You might get any hex wrench and it is no problem anymore. I found that that the Audioquest wrench is VERY comfortable as my posts are flimsy for my cables (Dominus is VERY heavy) and I shall not apply overly high to...

Hard to generalize, since different cables should be made differently for different applications and different goals. If you tell me specifically what you are trying to do, I might be able to make some suggestions. For some general ideas, thoug...

these are my findings about computer audio after some trial error:1. computer audio is very very hardware/OS/software dependent. computer structure is multi task (time sharing) and using it as a real time single task processor is not easy.even small ...
