spot on

Well they say psychedelics are mind expanding. Maybe you should give it a try. Any frogs down there in the sand where your head is buried?

haha yep these forums are quite feisty. Not a wasted thread Cno. Thanks for your efforts. I've leaned a fair bit in the last few days.

So many people have said they hear no difference with expensive cables. I do believe they can make a big difference, but probably only with hi end systems. Maybe that's why most people notice no improvement. I just can't justify spending so much on a cable, as much I want to! If I was convinced...

Yes. What's your pointCno?

Just to end this thread with an interesting article , here's a review of Wireworld cables I found. http://www.wireworldaudio.com/reviews/SchroederReview.pdf He does say you need a hi end system to hear the benefit of these cables. This article rings true to me. I think he's genuine. I'm sure...

Agreed. He's giving some helpful tips and basically saying try it and see for yourself. Science and scientists have said many things are impossible, only to be proved completely wrong! An open mind is the only reasonable attitude IMHO. I'll be back if/when I try this cable...

Cno, Of course he is imagining it. Stereo is an illusion, there really isn't a soundstage, and I can see that the vocalist isn't sitting in between my speakers because she isn't there. There isn't a group of small musicians in each speaker either. The whole damn thing is an illusion. So all...

I'm using a Tacima mains block and had everything plugged in to that. Trying with the amp straight into the wall socket. It seems more lively. I may be imagining it?? I thought the dac would be better plugged into the Tacima though. If not, what woud I use the Tacima for? Just the laptop?

No prob Drummerman. It's just tricky placing the speakers in this room so that they sound good but don't take the whole room over. But moving them away from side walls really does improve the sound. Also, I think some room treatment could help. I'm learning but by bit...

Thanks bigfish. I've done some googling. Trying the speakers in different positions has made quite an improvement. Good advice! I am learning :)

http://www.stevehuffphoto.com/nordost-valhalla-2-the-importance-of-cables-in-high-end-audio/ This cable review did get me excited. With the insane prices of the cables he was reviewing it kind of made spending £170 seem a lot more reasonable. He was absolutely blown away by the difference...

So are you saying all audiophile cables are a complete con? do you only use the cheapest cables in your system? If so, have you tried 'better' cables and found no difference? Just asking. I'm not trying to provoke anyone. I just want people with first hand experience. That is why I started this...

I feel silly most of the time Trev. So are mains conditioners worthless too, if power supplies perfect to power? Is that a daft question? I'm not tying to start a row.
