| Looking for a vinylesk sounding DAC Where you hear MORE elasticity, MORE tonal density, MORE plankton, MORE concentration to the point, MORE light-footedness and MORE palpability ... I hear MORE wickedly high noise floor, MORE compression, MORE distortion, MORE loss of low level de... | |
| Speaker cabels for dark sounding speakers? While you are at it, may want to borrow a solid state amp and give it a try.I think I am looking at the right impedance curve in which case with that amplifier, you may get get an elevated bass response which will make the highs seems dark. | |
| Why is black so popular for components? If I was buying an all in one and it was the only piece than I would take a color otherwise black or silver to match everything else. I would add white as an option but as pointed out, that's paint not anodized. I would prefer my heatsinks painted... | |
| Speaker cabels for dark sounding speakers? I don’t go to my mechanic when I break my leg. I also don’t go to my mechanic when I want to understand how the conduction of electricity in a cable works and what the impacts are of different conductor materials. Why not? Because my mechanic is n... | |
| Speaker cabels for dark sounding speakers? Believing that using silver instead of copper is going to magically impact frequency response of a speaker is what happens when people who don’t understand how things work are influenced by others. Call it power of suggestion, call it placebo effe... | |
| Speaker cabels for dark sounding speakers? Oh come on that's silly. Silver cables? That's going to make no difference.Your speakers have treble settings don't they? Have you adjusted them?Your speakers have good directional response but the old Eaton's were light off axis making for low ro... | |
| Room Treatment Question, lost the lowest bass notes. Problem is your room dimensions are conducive to suck out at a lot of low frequencies. Best short term benefit is listening position location. Which needs to be between two nodes one about 25Hz and another just over 40hz. I estimate you will want ... | |
| Power Conditioner Well I don’t think I am pretty certain you have no idea what size the capacitor needs to be. That capacitor in the Furman is fairly useless other than for higher frequency EMI which it will help. It’s voltage tracks AC voltage and is only above th... | |
| Power Conditioner How big of a capacitor across the AC line Millercarbon? Since you say careful design can you tell us what that value is? | |
| Power Conditioning / Surge Protection Charging pulse starts at the bottom of the ripple and ends at the peak of the waveform. When ripple is larger this time gets longer. When you comprehend this we can go forward.It is impossible for you to discuss this as you don't understand wh... | |
| Is 1990's equipment vintage? If I am selling it to you, it is vintage. If you are selling it to me it's old.In the antique world, generally accepted 50+ years to be vintage.In the wine world, that is just the year it was made.For me, most electronics are never vintage, they a... | |
| R2R Ladder DACs or All in One Streamer Solutions Even "cheap" no name Chinese DACs. There was never anything remotely racist in what I said. Stop dog whistling to hide you lie. By using the comment "cheap no name Chinese DAC" you are showing yourself to be the real racist. I will go out on a li... | |
| Power Conditioning / Surge Protection Bigger ripple means longer charging time - ALWAYS!, but you disagree with this.No it does not and until you understand this you will never be able to move forward. It only means more ripple IF the charge current is the same, and the charge current... | |
| R2R Ladder DACs or All in One Streamer Solutions And it was probably a $200 CD player too. | |
| A Very Useful New Discovery--EON Digital Filter from Network Acoustics So you of course, being a company, selling products have graphs of that 5MHz filtering?Now which conduction mode is that 5MHz? Doesn't this product claim to support 100MBPS Ethernet? That has a clock rate of 25Mbps and a recommended minimum bandwi... |
