| What is wrong with audiophiles? Cool, Then there must be lots of published double blind listening tests, published papers (no, not some guy shilling a magazine/review site). What? There isn’t? Say it isn’t so!!! Cue the extend diatribes and excuses that will now followOne of the... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? +2 glupson2,911 posts11-14-2019 3:57pmReminder, this thread is, allegedly, about what is wrong with audiophiles, not about wwhat is wrong with cables.Unless you actually start thinking about d orbital splitting. | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? +1, but GK doesn't even understand the basics, so this will fly right over his head. glupson2,908 posts11-14-2019 1:05pmgeoffkait,I think you may want to focus on d orbital splitting. | |
| The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance When you have base Porsche Cayman owners claiming their base Porsche will blow the doors off a 2020 Supra just because it is a Porsche or that their $2,500, 5 liter capacity Louis Vuitton shoulder bag will carry twice as much as someone else's $... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? Someone with the initials GK lacking in self-awareness.geoffkait18,247 posts11-14-2019 2:51pOK, here’s a joke. What do you get when you mix a mentally mixed up loner with a society that abandons him and treats him like trash? You get what you d... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? Newsflash GK, just because someone knows more than you ... or a lot more than you, does not mean they have to consult Wikipedia for something as basic as the definition of the Coulomb to refute what you write. Most EE’s will learn what the Coulomb... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? Technically, the Coulomb is defined by the charge on a proton, which is exactly the same as the charge on an electron (but -) ... so your statement below, that we know it’s charge in Coulombs while not technically incorrect, carries negative infor... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? We know that the electron is an actual "physical" thing. We think it is an elemental particle because we have never been able to break one down into constituent parts. We have even been able to take video of an electron:https://www.youtube.com/wa... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? And once again GK is wrong. Usually your "wrongness" is buried in stuff that seems right, but this time, You are all wrong. It is like you don’t even understand or know about the "Hall Effect" ... Yes, this time I will link to Wikipedia, as it wil... | |
| How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog? And this I agree of wholeheartedly. It is the same with the ridiculous turntable/digital debate. Some people prefer what comes out of turntables, some prefer what comes out of DACs, and some prefer what comes out of NOS DACs, and whether what come... | |
| How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog? Well one thing we can be 100% sure of is that GK will at some point make a post that is totally irrelevant to the topic at hand.geoffkait18,240 posts11-14-2019 11:05amI’ve said this before, gentle readers, but I’ll say it again. By the time the ... | |
| How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog? Most music in the last several decades was recorded with DSD ADCs, then converted to PCM for mixing and mastering. Conversion from DSD(Delta-Sigma) to PCM and back is a mathematical process and if done with enough mathematical precision introduces... | |
| How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog? mahjister,To say that "imaging" in headphones is all in your head, would be completely accurate. There are many imaging cues that your auditory system has for localization that simply do not exist in headphones. That makes the rest of your asserti... | |
| The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance There is nothing factual about claiming that humans hear "Principally via that transient" or most of the rest of that paragraph.While it is true that the initial arrival wavefront is dominant in sound localization, that is primarily due to group-d... | |
| The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance That 10A Skillsaw can draw 60+ amps on startup, and can also draw temporarily when loaded much more than 10A as well.A large ClassAB, ClassD, or Class A/AB amplifier turned up loud can also pull greater than 15A for a small portion of the AC wavef... |
