| The Physics of Electricity In simple terms? I am asking for trouble (again) here, but here goes...I believe the key thing better cables do better is that they minimise time-domain errors - specifically phase errors and time-smearing. I am a cable manufacturer and our design... | |
| Anyone tried pro-audio XLR mike cable in system ? Most audiophile cables are designed for good sound over relatively short lengths. Almost all pro audio cables are designed for good sound, and particularly noise rejection, over long lengths, and so the design trade-offs made are typically quite d... | |
| Do Kimber KCAG's sound bright???? As a cable manufacturer, My experience tells me that cable geometry is a bigger determinant of perceived brightness, which is a way of agreeing with you Rockitman, but with different words.However, copper and silver have different characteristic s... | |
| XLR and RCA interconnects in the same system? Answering the OP's question - no, mixing them does not negate the benefits. There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding of how balanced topology is used to reject noise. A fully balanced system will sum the positive and negative signals at a numbe... | |
| A New Believer "This is No time to be WASTING money on NONSENSE, such as wire and power cords. And EVERYONE on this site knows it's nonsense." I think this is a good example of what T_Bone may be referring to. | |
| A New Believer I have an extensive background of study and experience in signal transmission, but recently spent some years studying human hearing and managed to make some connections between those. I have been working with some professors from two different uni... | |
| A New Believer I am not used to the level of rudeness and anger I am encountering here, and since anger comes from fear, it makes me wonder what it is that you guys are afraid of. Or maybe you are just angry people and this is a safe place for you to vent some o... | |
| A New Believer To Paul graham - what question was I required to answer? Complete bullshit? Why such an angry reaction? If your tree is being shaken then maybe your tree is the problem. | |
| A New Believer AlmargI tend to agree. We don't know, and we can't know - we can only cautiously make assumptions. I reckon that is why we have to rely to some degree on what we think we hear when we listen to something, rather than expect a scientific explanatio... | |
| A New Believer We apply our best thinking on time-domain issues to all of our cables, so the difference isn't always that. With the speaker cables the cost difference is simply using twice as much silver wire, and solid, high purity wire that has good sound char... | |
| A New Believer Who's the shill?Rok2id, that's easy. In our case it is the cost of the materials that makes almost all of the difference. I suspect most are like us too, in that the higher priced cables have a lower percentage mark-up over materials cost than our... | |
| Special Sub-Woofer IC's I agree with Stanwal. I am a cable designer and manufacturer. While designing just for bass is less demanding, you end up finding the same cable design that is best for full range sound is the best for just bass. | |
| A New Believer Very interesting. I'm a cable designer and manufacturer, so feel free to think less of me than you might of another poster. And go on and believe that anything I say is only done in order to sell you my cables.I have personally found that paying m... | |
| Who has found happiness giving up on DACs? I haven't owned a CDP for a long time and won't again. Custom-built Mac (Hackintosh) with Metric Halo LIO-8. Ditched my Purcell/Delius for it, and it is a nice step up in transparency and naturalness. It isn't easy going the computer audio route a... | |
| Anyone familiar with Bakoon Satri amplifiers? From the mid-range up the Bakoons are truly excellent - the entry model easily beats the Nuforce in these areas. Bass performance depends a lot on the speakers used - it can be very good, to too loose - nothing like the grip that the Nuforce has. ... |
