    FS: 3 sets of Audioquest interconnects

    Good grief! That's like trying to sell a Chevy to someone and not being able to tell them if it's a Cavalier or a Corvette.

    Reference level is the sound level at which your neighbors "refer" you to the po-lice :D

    The Sound of Amps

    Some people never give up :thumbsdown: Must be pretty bored to have to start another one of these wars. Why not just have your freakin' beer now and skip the middle part.:rolleyes

    Blind tests can save you money!

    I think that all the test you conducted on your friend proves is that Monster cables suck. I wonder what the results would have been with a nice cable from Blue Jean Cables or Heartland vs the freebies. And any cable you get from Best Buy, regardless of the price, should be suspect right off the...

    I know....all amps the same, all cables the same, everything the same, same, same. Chu is just no fun at all :frowning:

    Anyone hear of these stereo amplifiers?

    The Musical Fidelity A3 is awesome for around $600-$700 used. I've got one for sale now. NAD C352, C370 or C372 are good ones. How much power do you need?

    HK AVR7000 sounds better than Parasound Amp...

    Yeah, everyone knows that a Conrad Johnson Sonographe SA-250 sounds just like a 125wpc Yammy! LOL!

    eBay, drunkeness, and the audio upgrade bug

    Ebay and alcohol do not mix. It says so right on the label. Audiogon and alcohol are an even more lethal combination :frowning:

    Connecting preamp to integrated amp

    I want to connect a tube preamp to my solid state integrated. The only component I'm currently connecting to the integrated is a CD player. The integrated has a preamp-out, for connecting an external amp, but no main-in. The integrated does have tape input and record out jacks though. I believe...

    Monster Power Cords

    Well to tell you the truth I'm a little skeptical too, but now that I have a component with a detachable I'm going to give it a try out of curiousity...especially since I can try a couple for free. Jim Jones? Sheesh...was I supposed to figure that one out! :confused:

    Monster Power Cords

    Yeah, I guess if it fit that would definitely be a positive. But I was thinking more along the lines of experimenting himself so he could form his own opinion instead of yours :p) BTW, how many have you tried? BTW2, Kool-Aid is for babies.....I drink beer (and form my own opinions) :cool:

    Monster Power Cords

    I believe Good Guys has a return policy. It won't cost you to try it. That would be better than taking someone elses word for it who most likely has never tried them and bases their beliefs strictly on existing science and measurements. BTW, I've never tried them before but at least tend to keep...

    I would find that hard to believe. There is no way they wouldn't take those back, believe me.

    Funny Bose story

    Idle chat between friends in a bar doesn't do much for world peace, poverty or humankind in general either but it's an everyday fact of life. Which is what this post is....idle chat among friends. Who says it's got to help the HT community? And maybe it does by pointing out how misleading...

    Digital coaxial output to analog input ???

    You could buy a cheap digital to analog converter (DAC). Something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...746557416&rd=1 That one doesn't have a power supply but someone else has just the power supply for sale here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...747379347&rd=1

    Receiver for Studio 40's?

    Considering the Studio 40's are fairly efficient at 91dB sensitivity, and being 8ohm speakers you'd think it was plenty under normal circumstances. Having said that, I'm driving mine with a NAD C320BEE rated at 50wpc with no problem. I have a smallish, enclosed room and very rarely have to turn...

    what will permanently damage a receiver

    Plugging it into a 220V receptacle would probably not be too grand. Actually, when I was stationed in Germany they used to issue us 120V transformers for our American appliances. My wife was cooking a roast one day in a crockpot and forgot to use the transformer. We came home to a house full of...
