| Cables ... no longer opinion flaxxer,Thank you seriously for the dose of humor. It is quite obvious that Max has forgotten a lot about engineering. Some would say, evident by his paper, that he has forgotten everything about electrical engineering. Given Max is from the UK, I... | |
| Cables ... no longer opinion Maybe his cables are good. Maybe they are not. These are like the old Goertz cables, what from the 80's? Good idea, but watch the capacitance. Many a hobbyist has made these with double sided tape.The article, which is by Max, not PS Audio. Frank... | |
| 3D lifelike sound and impeccable measurements - mutually exclusive??? So its no surprise that people still think that excellent specs and really 3d musical sound are mutually exclusive because the examples that disprove this are a minority in the high end audio world. We certainly have the ability to measure what... | |
| One Cord To Rule Them All @lostinseattle,I perceive some healthy skepticism percolating below the surface which is perhaps why you found the article by Caelin interesting, but perhaps some thing gave you pause, which they should.The article was written in a vacuum, and was... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy I would suggest light pressure of a finger at the upper back edge of the speaker to detect movement as opposed to cabinet flex. Thoughts? | |
| Cable Elevators The big ham fisted audiophile sitting in A first reflection point had no impact on the sound on the other hand. The preponderance for lengthy speeches makes me wonder about the ability to be silent and not communicate actions. A | |
| The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts This is crystal-clear scientific logic. All radio-technical measuring devices are designed taking into account the fact that the conductor is a linear element. If we assume that the conductors are nonlinear, then we have to admit that absolutel... | |
| 3D lifelike sound and impeccable measurements - mutually exclusive??? It seems to me that a good soundstage is largely determined by loudspeakers, speaker positioning, and room acoustics.Don't forget the recording. You can't play back what is not there, but you can create a false but pleasing result. Is it lifelike?... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy For tower speakers on thick carpet, spiking through the carpet it to whatever floor is underneath may be a good idea for stability against toppling.Spiking the speaker to the floor (if it actually works as intended) would restrict the translati... | |
| One Cord To Rule Them All Mr. Thyname I have noticed following these forms for a while that when anyone challenges you you resort to childish insults and attacks on their character. Perhaps there is some trauma in your past or unhappiness with your present situation that c... | |
| Speaker Spike Philosophy aschuhSpecifically, I measured a 12" Rhythmik sub, front firing, at minus 3 - 4 dB, when sitting on Nobsound springs (compared to standard hard rubber footers), which obviously allow for horizontal movement. The loss in bass energy was quite aud... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Thank you. I have lurked in these threads, both for amusement, and for some great music suggestions. I often get caught up in forums such as these, so I don't post much lest I fall down the rabbit hole. | |
| The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts You can't measure a wire sound with a device that contains wires, isn't it obvious? I assume this is an attempt at humor? Unfortunately reading the rest of the post, I am not sure. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Leonard Cohen, "The Future". Lights low, a glass of Philbert Cognac, slightly warm in the hand. | |
| One Cord To Rule Them All I signed up to respond to one thread, but I was amused enough by this thread and the very long copy and paste marketing speech by one of the cable companies. I am sure you feel very strongly about cables, Mr. thyname, but perhaps before cutting an... |
