    Jay, that's a sadness. Not sure why you don't keep the system for yourself. Where in PA are you located? Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    Will do. Just out of curiosity, what sort of glue or cement would one use? I already had a little separation along the long side of one panel before showering, so I might give a shot at re-glueing it if I knew what to use. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

    I've Seen The Light! Last night I decided to take the risk and use some Simple Green along with the 'shower technique'. In my home, the speakers are uncomfortably close to the cooking area and that's never a good combination. I clamped the sides (thanks for the reminder), filled a mist bottle...

    Exhausted with research...Need help...

    James, I didn't read through the whole thread, but perhaps my experience can help. I've wanted a pair of ML speakers since the 1980's when I first heard the CLS. But fate plays its own role in life, and it wasn't until a couple summers ago that I stumbled across a seller with an entire reQuest...

    Ah. Didn't catch that post. Even something gentle and biodegradable like diluted Simple Green would be a problem? I can see where Dawn might be too aggressive, but my plan was to use a diluted mixture of something to break up whatever oils or grease may have floated in there by misting it...

    What about Cables ?

    Ah. Sorry - you asked about the POWER cables. So, partially the same answer as I gave above. Depends on who you ask. IMO, you'd do better to work on other areas like speaker signal cables, interconnects, preamp, amplifier and source before worrying about power cables. Others would tell you...

    Does anyone have an opinion on using a mild detergent like diluted Dawn or Simple Green to break up any oil or grease that no doubt many of us have from either environmental or household (cooking) factors? Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    What about Cables ?

    Just went through this myself. I'm in the "cables really do make a difference" school of thought, but I'm also a "substance over style" kida guy, and look for a high ROI by buying based on fundamentals, not brand cache. On the advice of others in this forum, look at www.signalcable.com for some...

    Cables: How Important is Equal Length?

    This is what happens when a thread runs too long and extraneous posts (I'll leave the names out of it) muddy the water. I have a Powermax conditioner. So at least to a degree, the ill effects of 'dirty' power are filtered, or so my comprehension goes. Assuming that power cords can affect...

    Cables: How Important is Equal Length?

    But if the water is turbid up to the faucet, a filter clears out the sediment, no? Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    Cables: How Important is Equal Length?

    I'm not wiring back to the panel. I need 2' lengths for Amp and preamp I need 15' lengths for the speakers. How did the breaker box come into this? Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    Cables: How Important is Equal Length?

    LOL. Yep. Happens to me all the time. So, here's what I've come up with. There seem to be a couple different schools of thought where power cable geometry is concerned. Since everything in my system is grounded, here are some options by way of construction I've found in my travels: 1)...

    Cables: How Important is Equal Length?

    You certainly do have a talent for making posts all about you. I look forward to an opportunity to return your unique brand of attention when you're in need of clarification on a subject. Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    Cables: How Important is Equal Length?

    The situation is this. Per my other posts, I have my reQuests on the short wall of a long room. Because there's a fireplace/stove in between, I have to move my electronics to one side, hence the need for a 15' length and my original question about the importance of equal length to performance...
