Network Switches
Leave Stewart Pinkerton out of this :-) :-)   While I don't agree with his methods and he is way too quick to jump (at times to conclusions) at everything he perceives as snake oil, he actually is a fairly experienced engineer and would have under... 
Network Switches
No, I would just say you are a bit slower in the UK .....Would you rather I said encoding of the baseband signal into digital and decoding of the baseband signal into audio instead of ADC and DAC? The baseband signal will be encoded once with an A...

I guess pointing out some of the obvious would be useful (for some):TV and Radio stations are high noise floor environments. You are not exploring the limits of human hearing, so you can almost take those out of the discussion.They do care about E...

What ruins the informational value of a forum more?Unchallenged opinion?Challenging not based on content, but your personal emotional response? 
Cryogenically treated cables
Geoff, do you have detachment from honest discord. If we are to believe what you meant on this last post (which you will probably edit), then the statement below is false, since they don’t use cryogenics they use cryo treatment which you have now ... 
The science of opinion ...
We are all just fish in the sea elizabeth,The first attractor is the presence of a critical mass of uncertain individuals who happen to share a similar opinion. In fact, when such a cluster of individuals is initially present in the system­—eith... 
Cryogenically treated cables
If you want to make a bet about whether the majority of cables in Ligo were cryogenically treated (and not just used at cryogenic temperatures), I will gladly take that bet.What are you willing to wager?p.s. CRYCONNECT specializes in cabling and o... 
How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog?
You only answered a very small portion of the question I asked and effectively ignored the most significant part of it.As well, are you implying it would be impossible to build an analog limiter that soft-clips like magnetic tape and put that in t... 
Power amps into surge protector/Conditioner or DIRECT to wall? Final verdict?
sadono,  Can you please describe what "real" series mode surge protection is?The picture of the Furman unit here: https://www.furmanpower.com/series-multi-stage-protection-smp on the left (from the large inductor and over) seems to match what is d... 
Power amps into surge protector/Conditioner or DIRECT to wall? Final verdict?
I just did a little bit of research sadono and I believe you have you facts wrong.SurgeX sued Furman for trade-mark infringement and false advertising. They did not sue them for patent infringement. They cannot legally use a term/logo like SMP (Se...

Some would argue that it is painfully obvious that that statement is gobbly-gook :-) Not yours, the one you quoted. 
Perfect Path Tecnologies ‘The Gate’
You will perhaps notice Frank,That until you attacked me, I never questioned anything on the audio side, I merely pointed out that their was a disconnect between the claims for the product, how products that make such claims work, and the details ...

Cryogenically treated cables
Oh come on geoff, you must have been exposed to thermal analysis for cold temperatures in your Nasa days? I know I certainly had to do some crash course schoolin when I had to put something in space.Space is of course much worse due to rapid heat/...
