When a hobby turns into obsession

[bigrod]

Apart from carpet , which Diane has now chosen and spot lights, the mancave is close to completion , so it’s time to open boxes of stuff that has been in storage since late 2018

i didn’t realise I had so many cables and I don’t think this is all of them

but they’re all “ burnt in”

Diane will go

Show us your obsession pile

Oh. It would take too long. And I live in a small flat....

It would be worse if I had to include the 'spare' kit. But you have my sympathies.

Bloody amateur.

Mine are all in two huge boxes and I had to wrestle the blighters to find an I2S cable. And I have a nice box from Audioquest with er.....a few cables in it.

Not as tidy as yours, as the Transparent Audio cables would take the door down. Transparent Audio know how to make hosepipes speaker cables.

I have one short DIY and one long Cyrus pair of ICs, one short DNM and one long Ixos pair of speaker cables, one short Lindy and one long Fisual USB cable, two Lindy kettle leads, six Ethernet cables from Lindy and Belkin, one short and one long Lindy plastic opticals. Half of those are being used, didn’t pay more the £100 for the whole loom.

Skimpy, miser I don't mind but never call me hero ff:

Malteser isolation balls. Certainly taste better than they sound. Great alternative when you have no Hifi set up yet

Then stop wasting time on here, and get back to waving that paintbrush.

Not if they've been disconnected for a while...

Unfortunately due to the lovely weather, I’m forced to take advantage and clear the garden and cut trees

Does this mean the drivers of the speakers I'm not currently using will now be burnt out?  :shock:

Whilst I'm currently toying with the idea of taking advantage of the weather by having a go at some outdoor loudspeaker measurements...

No, you're getting them confused with old 'Wammers.

Good effort Julian!

Those 2 sets of speaker cables look interesting?

I guess this may meet the thread title criteria?

I would say thorough, not obsessed.

Which speaker is that by the way? Can you post a plot of the frequency response and one of the impulse response showing the reflection of the ground?

Edifier S3000Pro. I'll post data elsewhere later.
