    Un-Sound Advice about Cables

    John; you should visit a Monster booth at CES/CEDIA and determine if its lying when they give a demo of their speaker cable (12 awg) vs a comparible brand X (24AWG) lighting up a light bulb touting the Monster difference without telling the consumer its solely attributed to the gauge of the...

    Receiver vs. preamp/amp combo

    Oh Geez here we go again with the ACD nonsense. Why is it that the only people who argue these points are the ones buying receivers from companies whom are so behind the technology curve that they use this marketing term to justify their products as being "better"? :rolleyes: Please refer...

    Beatles - Love DVD-Audio

    I second that. This is by far my favorite multi channel recording to date and it sounds phenominal! For some reason I cannot get it to select or play DTS. It defaults to DVD-A which is fine for 2 of 3 of my reference systems. I can't seem to even find a menu option to select audio. In any...

    bose 901 seriesVI speaker/active eq. compatability

    You must definately use a BOSE eq with this system. It is the only way to achieve any level or linearity from them. Even if its the wrong series EQ, it will still likely be a better match than NO EQ or an external EQ from another company.

    My White Van Speaker Experience

    A pair of LX-44's which he abused by turning the bass up too high and leaving them outside in the screen room where the woofer surrounds dry rotted. It broke my heart seeing my babies abused so badly and I learned my lesson NOT to sell cherished audio gear to people that don't...

    Best male singing voice ever...who has it?!

    Is this thread just limited to Rock music? If NOT, than there are far better singers in the world of music than can be found in rock. Josh Groban IMO is the best male singing voice of modern time. He is simply amazing and is destined to become a legend. Frank Sinatra in his young days...

    Krabapple; Great posts and all logical to everyone but the Black Knights :) Not to add another topic into this thread, but I often love the irony of some claiming our equipment isn't good enough to discern audible differences, yet they never mention room acoustics, proper speaker...

    Yes and all of this is measurable and quantifiable. Any decent engineer understands the differences between capacitors beyond their RLC measurement on an impedance analyzer. Ah so now the agenda is clear. Self promotion of your own products. No proof other than your alleged listening...
