Last day of the CSO season Sunday, also last day of the Beethoven festival.

9th by Haitink with full supporting cast, ive been looking forward to this one for over a year.

My biggest concern has been learning the whole peice so i dont waste away the first 80% waiting for the chorus !!

Hi
I'm using an Cambridge Audio Azur 840 integrated, which seems to be doing fine, but I have upgrade-itis. I don't necessarily want to spend more than I did on the Azur 840 (ca. 1500, or maybe it was less), but I'm open to suggestions.
Regards

Lowest Note?

I am not very happy to report this, but it seems there is a slight difference with and without a reef knot on my Vincent XLR IC's

I can't be that sure, but it is like the high treble is a tad bit smoother and more natural with a reef knot on the interconnects. May? Anyone?

My friend and neighbor, Tris McCall, reviewed Joanna Newsom's epic, three-disc set, Have One On Me. It's an impressive and comprehensive review. Tris has studied Newsom and is sharing what he's learned. For instance:

After having upgraded with a new power cable on my CDP and sub, I tried measuring the exact distance from the CDP (in the center of my soundstage) to the left and right speaker respectively. They didn't stand in the exact same distance, and I had wondered why my soundstage was a little skewed. Only an inch too much distance with the left speaker did all the difference! When I moved the speaker so they were both in the exact same distance (to a fraction of an centimeter) the soundstage came just right.
