| AI and the future of music Re: AI generated music I don't doubt that some of it may be quite catching, but the cult of personality machine that has been a bed partner with popular music and which is an important part of the "business" is going to have to come from somewhere... | |
| Effects Of Power Cords On Electrostatic Speakers I consider power cables to be filters, and all that wayward power from the utilities to be needing correction. It's not complicated in that regard. | |
| Amplifier considerations, PrmaLuna EVO 400 versus ARC Reference 160 S. Is ARC worth it? Thanks. That was informative. Since my PL stereo setup is augmented with a pair of REL S812's, it may be that a mono setup would be overkill. | |
| Four Hour Tube Amp Warm-Up Will try that. Thanks | |
| Build a Faraday cage around your equipment. I make and sell orgonite which does not "block" EMF so much as it attenuates it. Some of my customers who place the "pucks" too near routers find that it can interfere with their wireless transmission, but it has never interfered with my audio sys... | |
| The Snob Appeal Premium I was a professional high-end furniture maker for 20 years, and really want to tackle one of the better kits or "plan" speakers. Have watched the Bagby Youtube's and others. I am drooling at the higher quality drivers. My remaining stash of high g... | |
| Effects Of Power Cords On Electrostatic Speakers An always gratifying maintenance tweak for power cables - spray their blades once in awhile with Deoxit. On my Anticables all copper power cables this is mandatory for sound quality. | |

| Four Hour Tube Amp Warm-Up Time has passed and the Sophia Electric EL34's are probably technically burned in now. I would say that about an hour and half use/warmup blooms them nicely. However, a couple of weeks ago I accidentally left the tube amps on for 7 hours unattende... | |
| Let the Games Begin Some of these replies are technically over my head, so I will give a simpleton's explanation of what I am hearing in my latest system which I have been running for about 6 months now. System: Jay's Audio CDT3 Mk3 CD Transport Holo Audio May Lev... | |
| AI and the future of music I recently threw some questions at ChatGPT to see what was up. Questions were about politically sensitive subjects such as 911 about which I know a lot. It is obvious that the AI data collection is filtered and skewed. If AI ever attains primacy i... | |
| Amplifier considerations, PrmaLuna EVO 400 versus ARC Reference 160 S. Is ARC worth it? My Primaluna EVO Power amp has benefited greatly from using Sophia Electric blue "coke bottle" EL34 STÂ A-matched tubes in the power tube positions. Strangely, Sophia's 12AU7 tubes are not compatible with PL amps - a fact they mention on their sit... |
