Neither really, when I first logged on to this site they asked for a user name other than my real name, and because I am so fanatical about Electrocompaniet amplifiers and equipment I thought "Electrohead" would be a fitting nickname, also as my real name is David it is considerably less Boring and ordinary !
OK electro, now I know your Norwegian Hi-Fi background, serious and expensive. So what are your thoughts on cables and interconnects, maybe even what are your thoughts on 911.
That is a bit unreal, having taken the time to asses your personality then I should know the answer, and I would say that you are 'underneath' deeply concerned but like so many prefer not to think about it, let alone discuss it.
On the contrary, I think about it constantly and I sometimes become quite depressed over the stupidity of the human race in general, that's not inferring that I am better that anybody else but at least I don,t deny there is a problem. As for talking about it that can be difficult , most peoples eyes glaze over and excuses are made, people want to live in their comfortable bubble and anybody with a pin is usually avoided !
Cable's , well briefly I would say they are the last things to be improved and only after the equipment is "right", a bit like the icing on a cake , not much substance but can finish a system off nicely.
Great stuff, so do take a look at the 911 thread, not an easy subject I know this is something many would rather not discuss or think about, but it is worth thinking about, and the truth will come out in time.
thought I'd check back and see how the Forum was going with regards to analogue interconnects.
Must say some people do have strong views with regards to the benefit of interconnects. Many in a similar price range seem to have little difference but has I found after spending £322 on a pair of Kimber Ag's ( .5metre length) there was a major difference. Only tried them because of the money back guarantee if I was not satisfied.
Being happy with the purchase replaced the interconnects throughout in my system with Kimber Ag's
Needed a i metre length but was reluctant to pay £600 so I purchased a cable on eBay called Straight Thru for £119. They were superior to the Kimber's in my system. Then replaced all my Kimber's with Straight Thru, luckily only needed .5 metre lengths (£69) . Sold the Kimbers on eBay
So there are differences in sound in interconnects, but dearest is not always best which I found to my cost
