| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. devin I cant remember where I saw a photo of his system. It may have been when Amir was responding to ASR related posts on Audiogon and I may have found it clicking on his monicker and then system specifics. All I can tell you is that it appeared... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. Check out the photo of Amir's reference system. See any problems? | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. Well I guess since Amir admits he listens to less than 50% of the products he reviews, those who believe a proper review can be conducted without listening, should be comfortable with ASR's methods. To me even the suggestion of a review based simp... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. I think it has more to do with reinforcing what some hope to be true. Exposing the virtues of a $ 1000 USB cable isnt the same as making a person feeling foolish for not buying one. On a personal note, my brother an engineer, bought both Toppi... | |
| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. I think you are missing the real point when describing design flaws with certain speakers. It is not an issue of the quality of the amp or what type of load the amp can drive. The simple fact is that lower impedance speakers are harder to drive, r... | |
| "...and I don't take any advertiser money..." Also dont forget the influence that decades long relationships have in this game. | |
| "...and I don't take any advertiser money..." I am not referring to industry accommodation. This program has been available, in most instances, to me for over the last 20 years. I was referring to the literal definition as cash for a positive review. | |
| Are EL34 based amps more musical than KT series based ? Or it's purely a matter of design? Absolutely correct about 300B amps. So much is the power supply. In fact, it took an expensive, properly engineered 300B amp to open my ears to this tube as viable. Have never heard a good 300B amp for less than 15K. | |
| "...and I don't take any advertiser money..." No if you leave the definition open of "pay to play". I think that Stereophile is the worst. | |
| Kef blade 1 meta Still not a fan of class D, although I need to hear the Atma-sphere. Did like the Audio Gan for class D but I think they still fell a bit short. | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? The Melvins a few years back. I only go to small venues, newish bands, cheaper tickets. | |
| Becoming Led Zeppelin Knowing Plant and the time, he probably stuffed his pants. | |
| The best opening act you've ever seen & heard? AC/DC opening for UFO in 1978. | |
| 12au7 tube? marco, The 3 types you mention above are all Philips Europe companies. Made in Holland, Belgium and France respectively. Each has a unique acid etched code which begins the second set of each code. For Philips/Amperex is was a delta or triangle o... | |
| 12au7 tube? I am pretty certain that the French tubes, La Radiotechnique (RT) were actually made by this factory which was owned by Philips Europe. Has a unique acid etched code. |
