PS audioPower Port Receptacle
I had a power port,which I eventually replaced with an Oyadi plug. PS power ports excel in dyamics and bass, but they have a hint of harshness to them. This may be due to their nickel plating which can be magnetized. On the whole, they were a clea... 
Double up on Kimber Kable 4TC??
2chnlben,I agree. If your system is already on the bright side, they will not help your system and might make things a bit worse. 
Double up on Kimber Kable 4TC??
Todster,The latter is the right way to biwire, because the main reason to biwire is to separate the highs and lows. I should not that I was not biwiring. I was simply doubling up 4tc to increase the aggregate gage of my wire.2chnlben,I am happy wi... 
Double up on Kimber Kable 4TC??
2chnlben,I did get a chance to do some experiments. First, I doubled up my 4tc and kept the + and - cable five inches apart. It was a major improvement over a single run, better bass and no bad side effects. After several weeks, I felt that perhap... 
Double up on Kimber Kable 4TC??
HDM,Thanks for your impression of the difference between 4tc and 8tc. As to the gauge of two 4tc I am baffled. On one hand, if the wires are the same, two 4tc should equal one 8tc. On the other hand, two 13 gauge wires equal a 10 gauge wire and no... 
Double up on Kimber Kable 4TC??
2chnlben,There seems to be no problem with the way you doubled up the 4tc, and from the reports of others it seems that you create something that is very close to 8tc. My guess would be that it might even be better than 8tc, because one of the pro... 
Double up on Kimber Kable 4TC??
2chnlben and Darrylhifi,May I ask whether you connected the two 4tc the way HDM did or you you kept them separate. I am tempted by the latter, but I am worried that this configuration will increase the inductance. So I am curious about your experi... 
Input impedence for Llano Trinity 300?
I have a Trinty 100 and its input impedance is 100K. As far as I know, the Trinity 100 has essentially the same front end as the 300. 
Sony DVD9000es player not decoding hybrid SACD
This is a common problem with Sony 9000es. Call Sony. They will give you the name of a local repair representative. I had the same problem. They fixed it by replacing the laser mechanism and it works fine now. 
VMPS QSO 626 Ribbon Versus Josephs/ Tylers
I have not listened to the Linbrook, but I have listend to Jospeh 25, Dynaudio 24, Wilson-Benesch arcs, Audiophysics Virgo, and I purchased vmps 626. Vmps in its stock form is a very good speaker (transparent with lots of punch), but it was a bit ... 
Dynaudio 25th anniversary speakers
I heard them recently at a dealer. I thought they were considerably better than 1.3se, even though they were not completely broken in. They were obviously deeper than 1.3, but it seemed to me they controlled the music better. Overall, very natural...
