Am I the only one

Not sensitive enough? Well that's the first time I've ever heard that. And then change my whole system just to fit a pair of speaker cables?? Bro,it ain't that serious. I have about five or six other pairs of cables that will do and have done just fine. Now if you want donate a two channle high end,sensitive audio only system (I have a list ready) please feel free.

I'm not saying the emperor has no clothes. I'm just saying he's naked in my house.

Coach, I was on the same boat as you back in 1999 when I got back into audio hobby again. I had the bryston/lexicon setup but Hi end Audio and HT are two different fruits. I see you already got the audio speakers, why not go for the pure audio route?

A pure audio system is in the works for another room in the house, but the family loves the HT. I'll probably never get rid of that system. But my two channle system will have to wait a while. These people seem to want real money for that stuff.

Coach,

I have the SR Signature 10 Bi-Wire cables with the active shielding. Try this unplug the shielding on your cables for 24 hours. Give your system a listen then plug the shielding back in and see if you don't notice a difference.

This is only a guess but only unplugging the shielding for a couple of minutes won't tell you anything as there is still residual capacitance left on the cables.

I personally had something very intersting happen with my system. I sat down to listen one day and the system didn't sound right something had changed for the worse. After some investigation I found that my grandson had turned off the active shielding to all of my SR cables. I turned the switch back on and that sweet sound was back.

Last of all have your cables burned in yet. That might also be the reason you arnt hearing the difference.

Good luck.
