The Van Den Hul and Cardas are both fairly similar and easy to work with but skill is definately an advantage.. Also depends on soldering iron. I have a temp controlled Magnum and it is definitely more difficult to work with but yield better results.. You can get the cheap and nasty stuff from...

I have spent big bucks on wire to make up the cable. So still have not made any up as i have not recently had time to search for the answer.  :yawn:

I had a buddy who is a retired engineer from Austria. He is an audio perfectionist and audio tweeker of note. He had the whole day to tweek and test stuff. This man  extracted unbelievable performance from relatively budget equipment. He has unfortunately left the country. He swears by...

An inspiring design cant wait to hear your results and impressions

Nice one  :whip: Vanity should be cast out of your persuit of audio Pleasant

No help out there?  :faint:

Thanks for the technical know how but looking more for experinces with homemade interconnects. What has worked and what has not

Thanks for the info but is there any more detailed info on what materials and what conformation works best.. :Ooooooh: I am going to use plain copper coated with Teflon to be made from scratch...  Pleasant :giggle: Should i braid the cable or weave the cable.. :thinking: If weaving or...

A fairly Detailed summary of Hifi and the Audio Field.  :thinking: What this article fails to mention is the Law of Diminishing returns. The more you spend incrementally the less the improvement in sound  :nutter: This Law generally applies to the two things boys and men love most Hifi and...

Cant seem to find post on hinge repair as i have a few broken hinges here for Linn TT :thinking:

Kudos to you  :comfort:

Plugs look very good almost like the WBT ones. My audio Guru says that spades are better sonically if your speakers allow. " They allow a firmer contact to be made " IMO spades vs banana plugs are a trade off. Ease of connecting and removal but perhaps 1,5% better sonically??? :teach: :yawn:

Any word on difference iyo between inside and outside driver mounting?

I want to make up some balanced line interconnects. Any info that you could give as to what cable and what configuration to use?  Any sources for these cables? :whistler: :thinking:

Have a look at ardendoff tools for brand new. Generally better value to be had for second hand tools. Also depends on the type of work you do as the drilling height of the drill press is of most importance. Have a drill press but had to use my mechanics drill presses to complete my hifi...

Hey my  :2c: :blah: worth again. Most if not all speakers have drive units mounted from front. This leads to better dispersion of sound resulting in wider soundstage and better instrument placing. Mounting from inside leads to a tunnel effect if this means anything to you

Not to sound pompous but the cable is only as strong as its weakest point and the aluminium ferrule creates too many transitions. Consider this fact international annealed copper standard (IACS) where copper has a conductivity taken as 100 as a relative measure. All other metals are measured...

Me thinks me been the victim of fake Paradox PIR sensors too Fitted new one and lasted only few months But off the topic

Be sure to use a drill press when drilling holes for the treaded inserts and use a bit of wood glue there. The worst thing is spikes that are crooked. The speakers are never stable and your sound goes all over the show

Hey just got some stuff from them. Very good range,  service and prompt delivery. Postage is a bit expensive but stuff not available here so no choice  Dop
