Verdinut Audioholic Spartan Aug 31, 2016 5,997 0 113 86 Montreal, Canada May 16, 2021 #4 Liutanie states that its connections eliminate any distortion induced by the wiring, canceling hum, hissing, mid-frequency nasality – basically any unnatural sound that doesn’t actually exist in the actual audio. Of course, this statement contains a lot of bullshit. A wire connection will never eliminate distortion, hum, hiss etc. Then if it did, it would modify the source signal and wouldn't qualify as a good audio conductor for loudspeakers. A simple affordable speaker wire such as the Monoprice brand does.

H highfigh Seriously, I have no life. Sep 14, 2008 24,217 0 113 May 17, 2021 #8 " The Liutanie Gold Connections have a current-carrying capacity of 100A and allow the volume to be pushed to levels that are otherwise impossible to reach without yielding or listening fatigue."- The part they didn't include- "Your ears will bleed, but you won't feel it". I want to see what specie of wood is used for the boxes- whatever it is, it's the wrong kind. It just is. I like the tweed guitar case, though. Reactions: lovinthehd
