What exactly is PRaT??? @ghdprentice You're welcome! Yes, 40 years of being a drummer certainly doesnt hurt. Knowledge of 'good' sound quality? The only parameter with good SQ, is realistic or accurate. A cymbal (keeping it simple) that sounds compressed (ie squished d... | |
What exactly is PRaT??? PRaT, the most asinine term ever invented in audio. Talk about doing audiophiles a disservice.... My version of 'PRaT'? The volume knob. If I want to bang my head, I crank that S up! | |
Did anyone return a PSAudio Powerplant? Why? I didn't return my P12, but after having to send it in for warranty repair for the second time, I decided to try an AQ Niagara 5000 conditioner. Immediately loved the AQ. My highs had returned and everything was much, much more dynamic. It was ... | |
Power Cables Anything from Audio Sensibility new or used in your budget. Neotech makes nice cable (if you can find it). I can not recommend Pangea or Blue Dragon PCs from Moon Audio unless you prefer your highs to be rolled off. I wasted money on those, was... | |
Non-fatiguing speakers in $10K range? @helomech no, I am simply asking for proof of your earlier post here: Based on the measurements of most Legacy designs, I would steer clear of them. Plus their custom drivers are not as impressive as they’d like us to believe. And I am still w... | |
Non-fatiguing speakers in $10K range? @helomech please don't cop out and pull the 'Google is your friend' to deflect your exaggerated response. I asked you to point me to all of the measurements that you are referring to which say all Legacy speakers seemed flawed. Speakers as tone ... | |
Non-fatiguing speakers in $10K range? I'm still waiting on @helomech to point me to all of these published Legacy measurements which make him steer clear of this brand. I see a couple very old reviews/measurements but nothing showing 'most Legacy models' as he put it. Nothing even f... | |
Non-fatiguing speakers in $10K range? @helomech care to share links for 'most of Legacy's designs' measurements that you speak of? | |
Should I cash in? I cashed in a over two years ago and sold my UDP-205 for nearly 3x what I paid. I even nodded it with an LPS from OppoMod to great success. Still, it couldn't compete with my then PS Audio DS DAC playing files off my server. And now, with a Lumin ... | |
ABX testing with AQ Dragon power cords @roxy54 lol | |
In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers @erik_squires I am sure the manufacturer was mistaken and these are in fact, the 32dB gain boards. He's going to send me the correct ones soon. Thanks for your feedback. | |
In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers @amtprod Here you go. The chart shows L=R which isn't the best way to do it, but I wanted to show a Class D manufacturer the chart with his amp (green) being much hotter than my Ayre, even though they have the same gain (26dB). After moving the... | |
Cable vs fiber for audio quality Fiber has lower latency and jitter with all things being equal. But I doubt you'll be able to detect much of a difference in jitter (who knows what the ISP does to the signal before it hits the fiber network leg). Latency is much more likely to be... | |
So sad about Netflix sound quality. No one can hear it Nothing to see here. Move along. | |
WHY CABLES MATTER! @calvinj The internet is filled with, not only more ’engineers’ (especially EEs!) than in reality but they’ve also all double-majored in psychology. All the while being rabid conspiracy theorists who believe tens of thousands of people are employe... |
