"STUNAD"?? That’s my middle name(favorite form of self-deprecation). Where does that leave them? Orecchiegats, maybe? Probably, mostly Dunning-Kruger Effected. Easily overlooked, but- detrimental to the advancement of the art/science of sound.
Are you as OCD as this audiophile?

I find his videos hilarious as he is so passionate. I'm interested and curious in all that he says, and his passion makes me respect him and laugh at times. So great.

"That’s a polarized device, but many common 15A receptacles aren’t polarized. They have the same width for both hot and neutral blades." AND- No ground. I’m trying to remember the last time I saw an audio component, that was manufactured without a grounding/polarized plug, since I owned my ST-70s and old Haflers. OR- a home built, since the 1960s, after they became CODE, without grounded/polarized outlets(and the attendant, wider neutral slot). To me(anyway), that’s, "common" and, "standard". |
I’m trying to understand the, " Because the receptacle he’s looking at is a 20A device. If he puts the wider blade on an otherwise 15A plug, it wouldn’t fit a common standard 15A receptacle." Every, "standard" 15A, grounded receptacle(or plug) I’ve seen, manufactured in the past few decades, has had a wider slot(or prong) for the neutral. 20A plugs have a horizontal, neutral prong.

Outside of having tubed main amps, speaking more about what’s new inside my equipment and using a TL woofer system; that could be me. Well, I just converted from an Acoustat/Maggie/planar worshipper(1980 ’til now), to a Emerald Physics lover, also. Then there's, HMMMM.... never mind(we're not alike, at all)! |
