| Firefox freezes when using Audiogon Almarg, djohnson54,ok, you guys have me a bit worried now that i got duped by that FF security patch to install.... ;(As Almarg suggested, I did look carefully at all the programs installed on my machine & nothing seems out-of-order i.e. i can... | |
| Firefox freezes when using Audiogon Almarg,this was a security update. I’m looking at the log files & it seems that the message was from FF. The log file in the installation folder tells me it was a ’maintenance service’. The actual log file in the AppData folder has a bunch of ... | |
| Firefox freezes when using Audiogon Almarg,you reminded me of another thing i need to check - i’ve not done a Win7 update in a while. That could be another potential reason....Also, last night when i turned on the monitor i was "welcomed" by a popup form that said a security update ... | |
| Firefox freezes when using Audiogon Thanks very much Almarg. I'm going to try these 3 suggestions tonight.after reading the write-up of Flash Protected mode it seems that i'm suffering from exactly the symptoms stated in that article. I;m running Win7 Pro 32-b (& i'm sure many o... | |
| Firefox freezes when using Audiogon Almarg, All,last night i checked my various plugins - the Flash player is up-to-date. the Adobe Reader DC was not. And, a bunch of other plugins such as one from Apple, Google updater, some plugin pertaining to my Canon camera were ’unknown’ to Fi... | |
| Firefox freezes when using Audiogon Almarg,honestly i cannot say if my plugins are up-to-date - i've never made a conscious effort to check. I do update each time i get promoted by Adobe Flash, FF, etc. Thanks for your advice - i'm going to check them per your suggestions & upda... | |
| Can you smell your speakers when youre rockin out? b_limo, i agree with several other members that you are probably pushing your speakers too hard. My understanding is that voice coils are very inefficient in converting electrical energy into mechanical (pistonic) motion energy - we are talking 2-... | |
| Firefox freezes when using Audiogon glad you brought up this topic scott_w. I've had some issues with FF + Audiogon but like another member wrote the issue seems to be better since upgrading to the latest FF version.For me even worse than Audiogon is Flickr - as I'm cruising thru ph... | |
| Upsampling -- DcS? ultimateyesfan,yes, it is true that in a non-overampling (NOS) DAC the music signal integrity is preserved as compared to in an up/oversampling DAC where an interpolation filter massages the higher bit rate data stream to smooth it out.A well impl... | |
| Would someone explain what "up sampling" means and how it can affect the sound? Thank you, Almarg. :-) | |
| Would someone explain what "up sampling" means and how it can affect the sound? rockanroller,upsampling is a digital domain process where the bit rate of the digital music stream is changed to something higher by an integer number. In redbook CD the bit rate of the music stream is 44.1KHz. It appears to me that you are not ve... | |
| Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. Time-coherency in a speaker is a design paradigm; it's a parameter that you trade-off in the midst of speaker design as you are thinking. typo on my part (sorry!) - I meant to write - it's NOT a parameter that you trade-off in the midst of speake... | |
| Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. bombaywalla -- There are too many other factors for a phase-coherent speaker to potentially sound like the less desirable choice compared to a speaker not being phase-coherent. I’m guessing you refer to speakers being mechanically aligned to achie... | |
| Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. o, again, it was the phase coherent car speakers…not the Beatles…I give up.wolf_garcia, maybe you didn't fully understand what I meant to say...for you, listening to the Beatles at that time, of course it was the Beatles & the low phase distor... | |
| Speakers that are very accurate sounding but don't produce an emotional connection. No speaker does it all. Its a matter of deciding what approach you want to pursue, and being happy with the tradeoffs.while this might be true, psag, the time-coherent speaker sacrifices the least & is very close to doing it all. Every genre o... |
