| “Classic” phono stages 2007-20013? Coincidentally, I started a forum about my EAR834P phono stage just a few days ago, but was taken down after a bed wetting tattletale dropped a dime on me. The post was about using an orange fuse by Synergistic Research and the insane difference i... | |
| ls FM radio even listenable any more? @millercarbon" For me some posts are unreadable since maybe, well you get the idea." -millercarbon ... | |
| Game Changing Tweak @MahgisterYou sound like you're from the Nikola Tesla school of thought. | |
| Game Changing Tweak @iealesThe audiophile I referred to would use top of the line Ortofon and Miyajima cartridges, some retailing for $12,000, the top of the line VPI turntables, and high end speakers in the $40,000 range. Now price doesn't necessarily confer quality... | |
| Game Changing Tweak "Said rooms almost universally have the most gawd awful sonics." That's the dumbest post I have yet to read here. You're a complete ignoramus to make a statement like that. If you can't afford the price of a ticket to an audio show, then you c... | |
| Game Changing Tweak @ladickinsonA dose of skepticism is healthy and even constructive. You're just a blowhard. The products we're discussing were developed over years of sophisticated research, using all of the instruments that meter/measure electrical signal. ADDP... | |
| Game Changing Tweak @phd My sentiments exactly. BTW, my analog has benefited as well. I think it's apt to say the Electraclears "purify" sound. It's subjective, but I'menjoying it. | |
| Game Changing Tweak Dynamic Range Compression. There may be a solution to the distortion in this article:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range_compression | |
| Game Changing Tweak Damping noise by elevating signal seems as important as damping vibration. In fact, damping noise at the source, which is the electrical supply, may be more noticeable than preventing micro vibrations that occur after the fact. | |
| Game Changing Tweak @tuberollinThat version is an earlier one. I have the latest, carbon fiber cylinder that only takes up the space of one outlet, not covering the secondone in the duplex. It's twice as strong as the original, from what I'm told. I moved one Electra... | |
| Game Changing Tweak Thanks, Spenav! My favorite music listening experience is the live concert. Now that it's on hold due to the pandemic, my audio system is a consolation. If I can get close to the "absolute sound" of live music, I'm willing to wait until the virus ... | |
| Game Changing Tweak A simpler solution to the controversy is for anyone on this forum to call the company and confirm a money back guarantee from AddPowr. Then you, trusting your own ears, can decide for yourself whether to keep or return the Electraclears. I was tol... | |
| Game Changing Tweak There’s an account of an applicant for an opening in Thomas Edison’s research lab. Edison himself conducted the interview over a bowl of soup during lunch. The job candidate proceeded to add salt to his soup without tasting it first. He did not ge... | |
| Game Changing Tweak $300 is a relatively small price to pay to make a discernible, appreciable improvement in your audio system. Those of you who dismiss AddPowr productsout of hand are nervous about spending that sum because either you don't have the money or you're... | |
| Are Bowers and Wilkins speakers overpriced? I traded in a pair of Bang and Olufsen speakers for a pair of B&W DM5 bookshelf speakers in the mid ’70’s, and still love their sound. I also own a pair of B&W 802 series 80 floorstanding speakers whose crossovers were modified brilliantly... |
