IF you leave now, it will seem like you take breaks from taking breaks from this place, rather than just taking breaks from this place.

I guess what I'm trying to say is you just got back.

pmb: please don't take this the wrong way, but I am not going to change when it comes to Fact versus Fiction. I will speak up. I am tired of such crap. It has no place on this board.

My we kill this dead horse and end this thread?

Is there a full moon on these boards lately?

I guess it keeps life interesting - so long as we don't hurt anyone's feelings so much that they decide to sue everyone else. Case in Point

I too, once made the unfortunate error of posting about my "discovery" regarding bi-wire Monster cables........you can guess the rest, I'm sure.

I just want to say....don't believe ANYONE, who gets so hysterical over speaker wires in the first place, (USUALLY haters) and secondly, about 100% of those that make polite, technical, or even the "flame" replies............have NEVER owned, or even heard the products they slam.

Do I really need to have owned or heard a pair of $1000/ft speaker cables to tell someone not to waste their money on them because they can't possibly get the signal from their amplifier to their speakers any better than, say 12-gauge zip cord can?

I would not have used such an extreme example...($1000.00 cables) but,.........YES.

Yesterday I had the day off so I finally installed the my new Axiom 12 gauge speaker cable. I also put nice AR bannana plug terminators at the speaker end and left the amp end bare wire. I am very happy with the up grade and immediately noticed improved mid tones, wider and deeper soundstage and more bass slam. I can't believe I have had these since Christmas and I just got around to doing this now. Could I be imagining all this, I don't think so, but mamma always said I was a half bubble off plumb. Anyway not the least important thing is, they look sweet and with the bannana plugs I can change things out a lot quicker.

Could be, that it sounds better cuz you really want it to!

Could be, cuz you have cleaner connections!

Could be, cuz your previous wires were defective or inadequate!

Could be, that there is some kind of inexplicable and unexplainable improvement not covered by electrical theory and residing in the realm of feelings and sonic interpretation.

Certain that, you're a happy camper and that's all that matters!!
