| Anybody have an actively multi-amplified system? *um* Does employing a distribution amp (6-2chan., w/4 pairs ’out’ each) qualify? Yes, it’s not ’squeaky clean’ as SOTA allows (and neither am I, but I can always stand ’downwind’ if required), but it does allow me a lot more flexibility than most... | |
| Vacuum tube amplified headphones... ....and, Yes....it’s PRC. Sorry ’bout that, but...since it appears there’s more of a market (or an interest in finding/making one) for an item such as this that’s not US nor EU....or anyone in existence to ’run it up the flagpole’, flip, flop, or ... | |
| concrete (cinder) block tower with wood chopping block for turntable stand ....one simple and cheap suggestion, if you opt to infill the hollows in the blocks with sand.... Get a box of those heavy-duty trash bags and put one in each void to hold the sand. One brilliant day pending, you may want (or have to) dismantle ... | |
| Can a system sound too Holographic? (....well, 'that' wasn't me... *looking at the chasm...*) @nonoise ....*S*👍 Precisely....or as close as one can inch towards... Haven't gotten a lap dance nor brushed by a loose lead guitar string at necks' end yet, but have gotten the balance ... | |
| Am I defective? ...what bemuses me....is reading that some fans, upon shortly after attending the latest T. Swift extravaganza..... ...don't seem to remember a damn thing...other than having 'been there'...barely. ?!? You paid big $s' to go....and don't reme... | |
| Burn in vs perception @mrskeptic ...Yup. | |
| Can a system sound too Holographic? Best Wall of Sound parody goes to: mho, anyway..... ...so until... | |
| Can a system sound too Holographic? @mapman ...*L* Only vaguely jealous of you having heard some MBLs' IRL... I'd love to.....but, would be insanely tempted to sell what's left of my immediate family into leather slavery to the aliens and what's left of my organs to a mystery mark... | |
| Burn in vs perception "Hi, guys....my name is Jerry and I am a....*non-pg pause*.... *sigh*....a thin-skinned pansy..." *snickering in the crowd, someone laughs..* "...*softly*...byte me...no, don't....f'n vampwire...*snort*...." Physically, yes. I bruise if you l... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? @rodman99999 ...or moths, with a love/hate attraction to flames....😏 A subset of 'splinter groups'....always getting under ones' skin. That last little bit, that you have to let grow out...lest you attack with an Xacto knife. ...and make it Wor... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? @thyname ....of course we do...because some 'issues' just won't go away... Differences between speakers tend to be obvious; equipment a bit more subtle.... But cables? 8g v. 22g on a speaker I'd grant... It starts to creep into 'dog whistle' ... | |
| Tune of the Day AI the problem? Nope....just us. Something to mess your mood.... | |
| How to prevent visitors from touching your system ....am I a 'true audiophile'? Well....I still smile most of the time, when asked that. It's because 4 of the 5 voices in my head are stone crazy. The 5th is the one that smiles and hums quietly....;) ".....touch my coffee....I will slap you... | |
