Virtual Dynamics Recall
I also received 1 of 2 cryo'd Power 2's today.Got a confirmation call from factory to let me know my extension was 1 or 2 days following.I have just plugged in so will wait a week or so before I post about the sound.This cable is huge and built li... 
MC cartridge with "big rich and life-like"
I would go with the Koetsu Rosewood as well.It has the warmest,lushest,most romantic sound I've ever heard.Also huge soundstage.20 years ago I worked for a high end dealer while I was going through college.We did an in-depth comparison of all the ... 
cornfedboy, signing off
Best wishes Cornfedboy. 
harmonic technology power cord
Subaru,are you not happy with the Virtual Dynamics power cord? 
Cable Fetish: Exotic, Warm and Romantic
One of the most exotic,warm and romantic cables is the Stealth Premier.They have a set on auction now.Compared to Cardas golden cross sonically but at a fraction of the cost.Highly recommended. 
Copper for Solid State / Silver for Tubes ?
Very well said Richgib.I couldn't agree more.I'm glad you detailed it out.If the dealers would only say this same thing( some do ) then they would not only make more sales of cables but would reduce buyer's remorse and uncertainty as well. 
Can use a opinion on Stealth - CWS interconects...
Driver,now that you've had a chance to listen to your Luminous interconnects how do they compare to the Stealth cables you previously had.And what other cables did you audition in between the Stealths and Luminous? Are the Luminous so good that yo... 
Virtual Dynamics Recall
I just received another call from Ann(I think that's her name.I initially said Erin)to inform me they had shipped yesterday a cryo'd Power 2 extension for my hard-wired DVD.I am now convinced without a doubt that this company's for real.Never have... 
Virtual Dynamics Recall
Denf,bottom line is what sounds best to you.What is "warm and smooth" to one man could be "colored and veiled" to another.Sometimes we get so caught up in the fervor of rave reviews that we jump into something and forget to listen for what our own... 
Virtual Dynamics Recall
Has anyone owned Shunyata,Electraglide,BMI,etc or other highly reviewed and regarded cables and then auditioned Virtual Dynamic cords to find them as good or better? Particularly when listening for what power cords do best;i.e. Black silence,wider... 
Virtual Dynamics Recall
Gunbei,I understand that the Virtual Dynamics have their own " dynamic filtering " so that line conditioners aren't necessary.Maybe Rick or someone with technical knowledge can explain the reason for direct wall plug-in.My guess is that a conditio... 
What's your profession? Age?
I'm 49.have loved music all my life.I am a musician,having played the trumpet since 12 yrs.old.I make a modest living selling chemicals and servicing injection systems in hospital and nursing home laundries.Got bit by the audio-phile bug in 1978 w... 
Anyone tried the new and improved Zen matrix?
By the way,Jaguar.Have you tried other cables? I was curious if you had tried any of the Stealth cables.Also,do you prefer copper over silver and if yes,why? I have been told that silver is higher-voiced and copper is warmer-voiced,that silver has... 
Anyone tried the new and improved Zen matrix?
Thanks,Jaguar.I look forward to your comparison.I have a pr.of wow's which are still breaking in.I would really like to get periodic posts as the cable breaks in.I understand the zens take an unusually long time to properly break in.Should you fin... 
Anyone tried the new and improved Zen matrix?
You both have a point.But what struck me was the boldness of the comparison.I have never heard the Valhalla's but based on the rave reviews they are "the" cable to beat.If this ad ,affectionately known in the advertising business as " puffery" has...
