I see rainbows on every single DLP set Ive come across, the Good Guys sale person showed me one of the top dlp sets and I told him I saw rainbows in it before he mentioned what type of tv it was. then he looked at me like a freak as if seeing rainbows in a tube dlp is abnormal. anyhow... I...
Well, Ive made a billion cables since I got into audio NOTE: I know many do not believe in cables, those into this stuff may find this a fun read. This is however not a form of advertisement in any way, and just a fun test to conduct for those that may find it an interesting read. So please...
I was plugging some SLVR Cardas conectors into my HK to test them out, the connectors were oxidized, but I didnt think silver oxide was anything bad, I noticed that the grip was temendous, possibly friction to to oxide, and when I pulled out the connector it took out the ground ring from the...

If I get two runs or regular 2-conductor speaker cable and stackone on top of the other and keep them together using tech flex and heat shrink. then on one end twist two conductors together to creat a single lead and the other end leave open as 4 leads? I see a lot of cables twisting, but...
