    Symposium Acoustics

    Greetings all. I realise this ancillary update about upgrading Symposium Acoustics rollerballs is approximately 13-months latent from the previous entry, but for anyone interested, I can (finally!) offer "some" feedback on my Symposium Acoustics Grade 2.5 Superball upgrade. 13-month Timelapse...

    +1 on the sonic uplift my ER provides my system. +1 on Alex's customer support and attention to detail.

    InnuOS is on a roll

    +1 I hear a notable sonic uplift as well. Glad to (also) hear your confirmation, reducing my suspicion of a placebo effect.

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings all, just a brief "cable chronicle" thread update pertaining to the on-going break-in progress on my latest baseline (for reference, see thread entry # 64 ). At this time, all the new “previously cited” upgrades (i.e.: 2 new Echole LE-2 power cables, 8 new audiophile fuses, new ISP...

    10 Favorite Tracks of All Time?

    I don’t know if I categorise these 10 songs as my 'absolute' favorites, as that would be too limiting, so I will take the pressure off myself and add this list of 10 tracks that never seem to fail in bringing me enjoyment (in no particular order): (Note: someone above already mentioned the RS...

    Shunyata omega Ethernet cable

    My experience with the Omega Ethernet is not only an improvement in all the typical sonic attributes, but it also brought me "closer the music", as if the music was more alive and present in my living space.

    Greetings VPN, and thank you for your welcomed input, cited from your fascinating audio journey, of which I have been an admirer (in the forums) for a long time. Your deep experience with Echole cables is certainly noteworthy. Interesting deviation in your speaker cable selection. Did you...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings all, just another entry in my Echole "cable chronicle", picking up the thread from my last chronicled entry, which was entry #40, on July-28 (almost 5-months ago!). Well, after a several lengthy delays during our renovations, we finally moved into our flat in the 1st week of November...

    USB cable recommended?

    Greeting @Calvinj, since this thread has the appearance of turning into a long continuous sales cycle, shouldn't you have your industry affiliation disclosure posted in your signature? I believe it is part of WBF's Terms of Service (ToS).

    Shunyata omega Ethernet cable

    My experience mirrors @HughP3's experience and sentiment almost exactly. I (too) first started with a SR Omega USB cable between my Innuos Server and my DAC, and enjoyed a wonderful SQ uplift; and, then later inserted a SR Omega Ethernet further up-stream between my PhoenixNET and my Server...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings @felipe91, I am just getting back to you now. I had a pleasant week... thank you! I hope you did, too. Here are a few follow-up thoughts, if helpful: You are very welcome! That said, it is not my intention to specifically advise you within these topical thread exchanges. On the...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings @Kingrex, I am not sure. I went to the Echole website, and it mentions (under the "Echole" tab) quite a bit of descriptive details of their unique technology and manufacturing process, but they don't make a specific reference to the phrase "continuous cast". See small excerpt bolded...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings @felipe91, I will try to add on a few thoughts, if helpful for your consideration: If you are having great success with your Gobel cables so far, perhaps you should continue acquiring additional Gobel cables to your system, so their synergies "accumulate" with a Gobel "loom", as the...

    Legendary musician Jimmy Buffett dead at 76: 'Lived his life like a song til the very last breath'

    Sorry to hear this news of his passing. Such a unique character and talent; and, his heart-felt music created a quasi- music genre (Key West, vacation music, boating/sailing music, etc.). He created some very original songs with original lyrics to match. It is another good bye to another good...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings @felipe91 Will it be possible for you to "try" a pre-owned Echole Omnia 1 PC in your home prior to buying? A "taste" from an Echole PC might help inform you your buying decision(s). Also, I believe you already have a Gobel PC and Gobel XLR interconnects, which I suspect are very...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings @felipe91, and welcome to this Echole thread..! Just to gently echo what @AudioHR has reminded us, the price of an item is not always indicative of performance "outcome", especially when installed in your audio system at home according to your own goals, synergies, and personal...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings all, just a brief update in my ongoing "cable chronicle" series: Kindly pardon the latency (i.e., long silence) since my last Echole "Cable Chronicle" entry, as I have been going through a large logistical change over the last 3-months, due to a change in GEO. We have moved from the...

    Anyone try Isoacoustics Gaia’s and Townshend Seismic Podiums?

    Yes, this video (I believe from about a year ago) is what inspired me to try various combinations of both the Townshend Platforms and the Primacoutics recoil pads simultaneously in my own system (& home) to derive my preferred findings.

    Anyone try Isoacoustics Gaia’s and Townshend Seismic Podiums?

    Actually, I am currently using one Primacoutic recoil platform under my sub; and a pair of Townshend Podiums under my main speakers. After trying a few permutations, I found I like this combo best in my system (so far). YMMV.

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings @ofer58, Congratulations. How are things sounding upon insertion of the Signature pc in your Ypsilon? From my personal experience with the few Echole cables employed in my system, the sonic uplift upon insertion will sound great for the first 50-hours, and this will be a very good...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Greetings @ofer58, and welcome to WBF. I have also been on a journey learning about Echole cables. I began my journey several years ago, and have been building a small loom for my system during that time. I really like what the Echole cables do for my system - according to my personal...

    Most beautiful jazz ballad ever played......

    And, as a bonus, here is a beautiful rendition of "On Green Dolphin Street" that Bill recorded with Miles just before "Kind of Blue" was recorded/released. Bill's solemn piano on the intro, then combined with the descending bass-line to lead into Miles horn intro is beautiful. The rest of the...

    Most beautiful jazz ballad ever played......

    As a big Bill Evans fan, I can't top the beauty of the Bill Evans pieces cited above in this thread, but would rather like to mention 3 tangental pieces that I think are beautiful in there own way. Not sure any of them rank as "the most" beautiful, but they all have Bill Evans hand, and most of...

    Echole - a cable chronicle

    Just a small, yet, note-worthy update in my chronicled trek into the Echole cables ecosystem. I just received another Limited Edition Series 2 (LE-2) power cable this past Monday (now 6-days ago). Kerem and his team were great to work with (once again). Upon receiving the LE-2, it was...
