| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? Uuh ooh aahwe have the ‘scientists’ disagreeing. Maybe we are finally getting somewhere... Fat Chance!Maybe we should get them to debate the conductivity aspects of molecular lattice structures in crystals next.... | |
| Best of Germany! Highly recommended,easy to drive, seamlessly integrated 2-way with very realistic soundstaging when positioned correctly. Because of horn-like characteristics great impulse and decay, no shout. Real value for money with excellent finish. | |
| The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts Single malt is directional unless you overdo it: down the hatch! | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? ...unless you lead in front (in thought) you have nuttin‘ but ***holes in front of you... Another fine example of directionality ...oooops: how decidedly unscientific of me! | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? As to science: before Galilei the world was deemed flat because scientists didn‘t know what to measure: geddit? | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? I find it astounding that one of the most eminent cable manufacturerers makes an unambiguous case for directionality and yet all manner of pundits refute it without offering any substantive argument. This sort of thread is useless. | |
| All things being equal (hypothetical) which do you prefer, XLR or RCA? If you can get your DAC or preamp near the amp there is no benefit from a balanced connection, conversely if you want to drive mononlocks near the speakers balanced is likely the preferred option. In high res systems with short cables my experienc... | |
| Benefits of adding a 10MHz Master Clock to a digital system @Big-greg,your post vindicates mine, mate: few people would want to buy a DAC where the clock alone costs $7000. That‘s the cost for a top Cybershaft, Antelope or DCS clock. That doesn‘t mean that these clocks are superfluous in a high end system.... | |
| Benefits of adding a 10MHz Master Clock to a digital system @riaa_award_collectors_on_facebookTouché! BTW there are numerous threads elsewhere that discuss the sonic influence of different 10mHz clocks on high resolution systems.The suggestion that $7000+ clocks should be incorporated in standard issue DAC... | |
| Connecting a streamer via an Ethernet cable Wifi is a good solution if you have no neighbours competing for your channels and a strong internal network. In all other instances ethernet or fibre are preferable. Nevertheless great care needs to be taken to suppress RFI/EMI when using ethernet... | |

| Best of Germany! Pay a visit to Keith Aschenbrenner at Auditorium23 near Frankfurt. You won’t find a man more knowledgeable then him.Also Scheu Analogue is a prime source for top rated turntables. In Duisburg you’ll find Acapella who build some of the best horn lo... | |
| Pimping your router @brenn,the way I check is by using the Browse tab selecting ‘relating to you‘.There may be better ways.Sounds like your extender works gets its signal via wifi rather than power lines. I have good experience with a cheap Chinese linear Ps | |
| Pimping your router As far as improving the router power supply: in my case it helped quite a bit. As far as as the FIOS is concerned: wifi network extenders as they typically use the power lines tend to be noise collectors and as such are not good for audio purposes... | |
| All things being equal (hypothetical) which do you prefer, XLR or RCA? Dual differential XLR is less prone to interference but can be a bit sluggish compared to the best single ended implementations. Single ended is preferred on purist systems based on SET amps from Kondo, Shindo, Audionote or Wavac. I guess the easi... |
