| Has Digital Audio Tech Plateaued - Is It Safe To Come Out Now? @eric-squires,I concur, in particular on the implementation of Delta Sigma DACs and the fact that R2R Dacs ultimately suffer from their own set of colorations@bruce19,spot on. That said, analogue recordings have a greater affinity to vinyl than mo... | |
| Has Digital Audio Tech Plateaued - Is It Safe To Come Out Now? Properly implemented digital is far beyond vinyl. The problem is the implementation. Getting USB and ethernet connections to be noise free takes a fair amount of doing and getting the best clocking for digital is mandatory. Differences between lac... | |
| Speaker cable recommendations for DeVORE FIDELITY +1 on A23 | |
| The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts @bluemoodriver,aren’t you confounding quality of input and quality of transmission? An impact of one in no way has a bearing on differences in the other | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy @audiodwebe,The literal translation of audiophile is ‘one who likes to hear’ so you just managed spouting a tautology. Well done! | |
| Pimping your router A little addendum to the original post: In the meantime I have added a WA Quantum Tuning Chip to the incoming ISP and outgoing Ethernet cables directly at the router. Further improvement in dimensionality, location and attack as well as clarity of... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy I fully concur with @millercarbon. An alternative to springs is the Symposium Svelteshelf on rollerballs. Whatever you put under the speakers if they are floorstanders, should be relatively thin, otherwise you need to lift your seating position by... | |
| Pimping your router @timinphoenix,your basic hypothesis is wrong. Yes, digital signals travel in mHz. The problem, though is that along the way they pick up RMI/EFI as well as ground level noise, and: no, Dacs don‘t fully filter them out. The result is distortion in ... | |
| Pimping your router That equally applies to my Innuos Zenith Mk3. Nevertheless inserting the EMO isolator with a short Meicord Opal made a significant improvement. Not obvious, I agree... | |
| 2019 300B tubes that are worth the money? A word of warning if I may:the SQ of different 300b tubes is dependent on the rectifier tube used: on my Wavac EC-300b when I switch from the EAT300b to the Takatsuki, I equally switch from Svetlana Winged-C 6L6 GC to Tungsol KT66. It gives the Ta... | |
| The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts @anton_Stepichev,as far as I am aware when done in the digital domain (my experience is with puremusic) it doesn’t involve going through all sorts of additional DSP hoops. That would be dysfunctional and is one of my key issues with Roon which has... | |
| The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts What else would the phase inverter change, then? | |
| The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts Phase is 360 degrees scalar, polarity is binary | |
| The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts For the sake of clarity: I assume we are discussing polarity, not phase. And it can definitely be heard. It manifests itself as a strange hesitance in attack. As though a woodwind would suck in air rather than blowing it. Unfortunately there are n... | |
