| Power Cable Suggestions. The willful ignorance in here is astounding. Truly. It's like an alien world where physics and the science of sound don't matter. So many fake audiophiles perpetuating nonsense; no wonder this hobby is dying. | |
| audiophile folklore - cables and claims from manufacturers The only way a cable matters is if the OFC gauge is not large enough for the length of the run. That's it. Everything else is marketing (read: lies). | |

| An Audio Amateur's question about McIntosh Audio McIntosh amps are good but they don't measure great, even compared to amps that cost MUCH less. You're paying for the look and the name, that's it. | |

| BEST HORN LOUDSPEAKER TO PURCHASE Klipsch RF-7 III are actually pretty good, for those looking for horns. | |
| Is my new amp TOO GOOD? If you don't like the sound, the problem is your room/acoustics or the speakers themselves, not the amp. | |
| Mono Blocks / why are they not more prevalent? + Wyrded4Sound SX1000R They aren't used more because they don't provide said benefits. Simple as that. Enjoy your cheap AVR amps that sound the same. | |
| Cables & streamers The OP is just gaslighting here. Nobody is that ignorant. He's just pretending that physics and the science of sound don't exist. Whole thread should be closed for intentionally lying and starting arguments. |
