| HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? Once the ganfet amps came in the door cabling in general became much more of an audible factor for me. | |
| Who positions their speakers straight ahead (zero tow in) and why. My listening living room has one feature that throws another wrench into the equation - adjustable sidewall "vanes" in the form of adjustable room window/door slats - the old fashioned wooden slats that can be angularly adjusted with the pull of a... | |
| Time of Day for best Sound We are regarding the state of our neural circuitry to be part and parcel of our sound system, right? If not, it’s high time we did. This is how many of our favorite musicians operated. | |
| Time of Day for best Sound Of course, what strain of cannapacitors you are using has its effect on sound too. | |
| Time of Day for best Sound As my system has become more hi-fi it seems to have mostly overruled vagaries in the electric grid. I used to specify late night listening for maximum music, but now I often find that even high demand periods like dinner time can sound very good e... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? Let's assume for a moment that we know what the "filler" is in an Audiomagic M2 fuse. Some rumor that it is graphene loaded beeswax. Can anyone here scientifically speculate about the effects thereof? I know how the fuse sounds, but how would it ... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? Re: blowing audiophile fuses. One of my tube preamps will blow a touchy audiophile fuse if the amp's feeding component (dac in this case) is turned on while turning on on the tube amp. In this situation the dac is first turned off before turning o... | |
| Who positions their speakers straight ahead (zero tow in) and why. Sometimes getting goofy pays off. It's what I like about this hobby. | |
| BEST CD TRANSPORT With the Jay's Audio CDT Mk 3 I have become enamored with the 4x upsampling toggle. I would now always prefer a transport that has such options. | |
| OCD mickey website and negativity. Most fascinating thing about Mikey is that he as neurotic as hell. It is abating somewhat as he ages, but I always watch him as an instructional video about what happens when a hobby gets out of hand. Recently, it looks to me like he has started t... | |
| Who positions their speakers straight ahead (zero tow in) and why. My Cornwall 4’s are set up in such a way that they can be very accurately positioned especially as to complimentary angling. One listening night recently I was startled to hear a somewhat different and dare I say superior sound emanating from them... | |
| It Pegged the Needle on My "BS Meter". Now, I'm A Believer. Ever Happen to You? Sound Familiar? | |
| “A complete unknown” I had the misfortune of seeing it in a theater with a bad sound system which sounded like it had been beat to death showing action movies. Dialogue was about 50% intellligible. Music was often shrill and cacophonous. For some reason during the Big... | |
| Upsampling/Oversampling Yeah, something like that is what I was suspecting although it is over sampling an upsampled file. No popping when NOS is in place on the dac whether the file coming from the transport is Redbook or the transport has 176.4 turned on. The fact tha... | |
| Some thoughts on dust covers Don't forget micro-dandruff. Your DNA is literally being played - a prospect that should thrill all platter spinners. |
