| Which speakers did you find bright, fatiguing or just disappointing in some way? Human ears are DESIGNED to identify immediately the human voice TIMBRE in all acoustical settings..Designed huh? Ooookay. Human speech is relatively new in our evolution but obviously important but just one aspect of survival of the species as i... | |
| What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen. mijostyn OP3,670 posts02-10-2021 7:25am@mahgister, I am not disagreeing with your statements. Based on the current political situation I would estimate that at least 50% of the population is highly suggestible. About 60% on one side of the spec... | |
| Grounding with a Earth box? Odds are @twoleftears , it is just Y-capacitors connecting the two terminals together. They are a type of capacitor that fails "safe" ... i.e. it does not form a short, but stays being a capacitor. | |
| The Weekend dill try to fool someone else. Posting it once is pedantic even informative. Posting it twice as you did is trying to make something out of it, and not in a nice way. It is pretty obvious the goal. | |

| The Weekend Today’s youth seem to care more about the choreography than the actual music. Growing up, you never saw Hendrix, The Who, Tull, Floyd, etc with dancers behind them.What disingenuous trollop. How did Pete Townsend smashing guitars or Floyd’s light... | |
| The Weekend With the exception of John Williams, how many classical music artists do you know that write their own stuff? Michael Jackson didn’t play an instrument. Lots of rock singers barely do.The Weeknd writes his own songs and has some collaborations.Amo... | |
| The Weekend Wow, I feel sorry for the kids that lived in most of your households. I am in my 50's, but I could easily sing along to most songs by The Weeknd. There is a reason why he gets a billion+ views on Youtube. Songs are uber catchy, have a great beat,... | |
| The Weekend tomic6017,466 posts02-08-2021 9:42pmLike Welk fans talking about Dylan, after electrification....Pretty much right tomic601. That so many needed to comment negatively I would say hits a nerve :-). Bet you many are so lost in old music they didn'... | |
| Audiophile Fuses: Helpful or "Snake Oil"? It is pretty much a given that any heavy promoters of fuses (except perhaps in the speaker circuit), have little to no clue how electronics, power supplies, amplifiers, etc. work. Oh sure they can wave their hands a lot, but get into the nitty gri... | |
| The guru on fuses: The fuse he was talking about was in the speaker circuit, not the power circuit. Also note his comment before about building an amp that he thought he did everything right, but still blew up when shorted. Just because someone has a "fancy name" e... | |
| The Weekend I thought the mirror room part was a missed and there was some sound issues, but overall, I thought it was pretty good. He just needs to loose the handheld microphone and get a headset so that he can move more. | |
| What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen. Being totally pedantic, the emissivity of polished aluminum is quite a bit different from rough aluminum. That could make for some minor differences in cooking :-) | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? That price for activated carbon above is totally out to lunch. Activated carbon starts at about $0.5/kg. Let's they need a specialty grade so 10x maybe. They aren't buying it on Amazon. Only highly refined scientific grades would be the cost quo... | |
