Sounds like you need a job. Can you swing a hammer? I’m looking for another carpenter who can still hear.
You cable haters please DO this.
Yo, haters, can you please do this..??
First, you need to go find some old useless stuff, you have tossed some where in..basement or attic or closet.
-- Those interconnect that came with cheap DVD player or CD player or whatever...you know what I mean. Those plastic red and white ones.
-- Find some few cheapest and thinnest power cords.
-- Lamp cord to use it as speaker cable.
Now, replace all of your systems cables and cord with above and listen for ONE WEEK.
After one week is where you need to have a good friend with some good quality ICs and power and speaker cables. Or if you have a friend you want to shut him or her up......go over with your cables.
-- Hook up the good cables.
You see, I always thought and still think cables are important part of links of chain. My ears included. For fun, last Friday I did what I outlined above. If, changing one ICs...PC...or speaker cables at a time doesn't change the sonic then it shouldn't change at all when changing out ALL the cables at once right? Or am I right? Anyway my system is
VPI Classic 1 with Lyra Dleos
Zesto Andros 1.2
Sony XA5400es
Bryston BDA 3
Bluesound node2
Custom tube pre amp
Custom el34 tube mono power amp
Morrow MA3 and PH3 ICs
Clear Day double shotgun speaker cable
Signal Cables Power cable
Equi=Tech 1.5Q
Oh, I did not use equi= tech with cheap cables. I just used dollar store power bar. I mean, it shouldn't make any difference right? Power is POWER.
So...how did it go? I let the system sing everyday for a least 4 hours. All day when I was home. I wanted to run this for whole week and I did it and I'm glad it's over. Here is what I find.
In one word to describe system with cheap cables is Muddy. Just muddy from day one until last night. I Don't want to go into details of sonic. Just muddy. Once I changed back to good stuff.... Eargasm. Better than pissing. And they say good pissing is better than....you know what.lol.
My money was not wasted on cables. My cables are all so call budget cables and money well spend. I did it for fun and because I forgot how I started out in this hobby. Anyway, people who keep saying cables Don't do shi* should try this.
And you have to have a lots of patience. I wanted to stop just after few minutes..Lol. I was hoping for sound to improve after day or two but never did.
Now I know.
