| Whom to invite to a Powercord shootout party Signal Cable Silver Resolution AC terminated with Onix Silver AC and IEC Plug. Yummy clarity for my Tube Amp. | |
| What wall outlets? Furutech or Oyaide? I have used PS Audio original for my sub and have used FIM 886 and Porter Equivilent for my CDPlayer. The Atl Newcablestudio 1000 is for my tube amp. The PS audio is agressive in the highs so is relegated to the Sub. The FIM 866 is a bit better th... | |
| interconnects & powercords on subwoofers??? I use Signal Cable's best power cable on my sub and it has made a world of difference. Using VH Audio DIY instructions I have built 7foot solid core silver interconnects for the sub which was a major improvement over Monster etc. | |
| Smooth sounding copper IC like Kubala Sosna Why not build a pair of VH Audio's DIY Silver IC's using High Quality Copper? I just built a couple of pair using their DIY instructions and NOS Western Electric 24 AWG silk covered copper speaker wire. Yummy!! | |
| How to tame brightness I have just replaced the Mundorf Silver/Gold Cap in a monitor Speaker Crossover. An Ampohm Polyester in Oil cap of the same value has smoothed out the brightness of the MB Quart Metal Dome. I believe your Speakers use a metal dome with a simple Fi... | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? I am using a Diy Passive at the moment as I am comparing different designs of Power Cables on my CD Player. Although I enjoy listening with my active, it is warm and colored. It is however, refreshing to have the clarity,transparency and detail of... | |
| Who is using passive preamps and why? I am using a DIY ALPS 10k passive to feed an Audio Research VT50 and a Powered Sub. The IC's to both amps are low capacitance. This has resulted in a very spacious lifelike and tonally neutral sound with all the dynamics I need. | |
| Power Chord For Cambridge 640C v2 I have tried an number of inexpensive Power Cables with a Cambridge Audio 550c and have settled on a Signal Cable Silver. It seems to open things up a bit and reduce some of the glare I had been experiencing. | |

| Anyone Tried Solen Film & Foil Teflon Capacitors? In an Audio Research SP14 I am using a Solen Teflon .47 bypassed with a .033 of the same with superb results. They replaced the stock .47 and .01 Bypass which were Wondercaps at the input of the Line Stage. This improved clarity a great deal. I th... | |
| Dedicated line help I originally ran 2 dedicated 20 amp lines. 1 for digital and 1 for analogue. I was impressed. I have since added 3 dedicated 30 amp lines, now having a seperate line for each component in my rig. I am completely floored by the improvement! The res... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? In the 80's a pair of Infinity IRS playing a recording of Holst's Planets. I was astounded and instantly hooked into this addiction!! | |
| Virtue Audio Speaker Cables I have also!! They've replaced some aging MIT. Opened up the soundstage,improved timbres and clarity. At first they sounded a bit bright, however they have mellowed with use. The midbass in my rig is tuneful again!The IC's are terrific. They have ... |
