Re: Anyone play around with Duelund wire?
Speaking to lower efficiency, I have Harbeth 40.2 speakers, which are only 86db sensitivity... Is this to low to even try Duelund wire as speaker cables?? (Jim?)
I’ve used 16ga w/ KLEI Absolute... -

Re: At what dB level do you begin to have hearing damage?
The Wrong frequency weighting for the situation can give wrong data. A-weighting Or C-weighting? Cus no way a plane was only in the 50’s.

Re: Denafrips Terminator dac ...
One reason for varying reviews of the Termi may be break-in time. I aquiered one with supposedly around 250 hours +/- on it. It was good. But midrange texture and detail, and high-end extension,...

Re: AV RoomService-EVP (Equipment Vibration Protectors)
calloway,
actually I was wondering, how much up the shims balanced your particular speakers? Regular wood shims I presume? And did you cut your shims length off once settled?
Thanks -

Re: Show us your Harbeth stands
Should someone that needs a bit of leveling on one side choose a different stand over the Ton Trager? They do not have spikes or a way to level, correct?

Re: New 40th Anniversary Edition
Thanks Dskip!
This is confirms my theory that the 30.2 has a little more of a brown veneer used than the 40.2 does; being a little more grey. I actually really like both looks. -

Re: What amp on Harbeth speakers ?
It would help a lot to know how loud they were playing. But even through my iPad Pro speakers the transient dynamics on that ‘chirp’ was kinda crazy.
