    <font color='#000000'>Richard; Just a few suggestions, perhaps you should tell others what you plan on using for mains, rears, sub, and electronics, also room size and listening preferences. IMO it is imperative to voice match front and center speakers for a more seemless blend of the front...

    How much is your main home audio system worth?

    <font color='#000000'>Yamahaluver/All; I have been monitoring this forum with much interest and rather than adding my own 2cents, I sent a quick email to Yamaha USA Products Director Bruce Bernstein.  He has given me permission to reprint this in this forum. <table border="0" align="center"...

    audio CD sound quality

    <font color='#000000'>Most of the audible differences between CD/DVD players playing back Redbook CD become moot if you use the digital outputs and let your high end Receiver/Pre/Pro do the D/A conversion.  If you don't plan on using the analog outputs of your CD/DVD player, then it shouldn't be...

    Zip Cord VS Cross Connected Coax Article

    <font color='#000000'>John; It sounds like we are saying the same basic stuff now.  I think I may have been mixing up terms and that is where the confusion began.  I am writing a paper based on this and plan to have Henry and you, if you would like, to peer review it before posting it and...

    <font color='#000000'>Jon; Zobels are effective at making high inductive loads look resistive. &nbsp;Lets say for example you have a tweeter that impedance increases without bounds with frequency, this is where a zobel will help reduce this problem. &nbsp;As far as I know, the most effective...

    Zip Cord VS Cross Connected Coax Article

    <font color='#000000'>John; My excuse is pure carelessness.  I should have known better than to use 1ft of cable in my measurement, and Jon is 100% correct that using 10ft/10 will reduce error. In my up and coming cable faceoff article, I will be using 8ft lengths for all of my measurements...

    Zip Cord VS Cross Connected Coax Article

    <font color='#000000'>It appears we have all been hit with the “error bug”. Jon – overstated attenuation and inductance figures for 12AWG Zip and understated attenuation figures for Cross Coax. John – set-up errors of LCR meters yielding too high inductance measurements. Me – Using too short...

    <font color='#000000'>John; I realize with you I must be very clear and specific as you pay close attention to details When I shorted the leads of the LCR meter, they didn't stay fixed at .1uH, but jumped around. &nbsp;After calibrating, it nearly zerod out. &nbsp;Even if cable length were an...

    <font color='#000000'>Jon; Your implications are correct.  I should not have discouraged people from your cable receipt designs, even if most of your claims about cables are either wrong, misapplied or overstated.  I apologize for being abrupt and making a blanket statement about your website...

    <font color='#000000'>lord helmet; Please refrain from posting links to Jon Rischs cable receipts as we feel that his designs can do more harm than good.  IE. his psuedo twin feeder coax cable receipts where he shorts the center conductor to the adjacent ground shield of the other cable may reduce...
