My circa early 80's audio friend Rick collected a series of audiophile articles about how braided strands of larger solid enamel coated wire is better for audio. He set about installing replacement hand-made cables on his stereo system and measuring the results, which were actually better than the fine-wire leads he started out with. But he had to use some very high end audio gear to measure the difference and I couldn't tell much of a sonic difference.
A Class-A Krell and Threshold type amplifier generates more in- room heat than usable audio. I'm more concerned about the 300 watt space heater built into the amplifier operation vs distortion values less than 1% the average human hear can't even hear. cheers, s. > > To put this to bed once and for all, can we at least agree > > that coax does not have a low-frequency cutoff?
