| Old phones as streaming sources My central point is that by stripping away as many of the non-essential functions of the phone as possible I perceive it to improve as a digital source and I wonder if others have similar experiences. The persuasive explanation for this would be t... | |
| Old phones as streaming sources Well that is fine @soix , but I think you would be better served by prefacing your comments with "in my opinion" which is what it is. My points of reference are a Auralic Aries streamer and a OktoResearch Dac8, both of which are in another league ... | |
| All speakers have a little EQ built in @elliottbnewcombjr I’m with you 100% on the AR’s, I used to listen to the Nightbird on AR 4’s. I restored the 2 AX’s and they help reinforce that hi-fi hasn’t changed as much as some people think in the last 50 years. :-) I had to recon the woofer... | |
| All speakers have a little EQ built in @dougsat I agree. Since building two pairs of open baffle, single driver speakers with no crossovers, I have found that they have virtues that sit them equal to my LS 50s, Klipsch heresy, ones, and AR 2AX’s. I also have measured my hearing and hav... | |
| Very Very Interesting NYC Venue and Meeting Place @pindac Thanks! This is an interesting place with a philosophy of listening that appeals. May visit. Always interested in promising speaker and amp kits and plans. | |

| New streamer Go Oktoresearch and save space and money with a better preamp, dac and streamer all in one Stereophile A + rated unit. Get it for free when you sell your pre and dac! | |
| Good measuring DACs vs. Truth and beauty are two different things. | |
| WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR? Why do people mistake skepticism for hate? | |
| Is simpler better? Nelson Pass, and Steve Deckert have inspired me to go down the road of elegant simplicity. Good source, quality, straightforward, connections, well designed minimalist amplifiers, and even simple speakers, baffleless, no crossover Lii audio F15‘s.... | |
| Subs with room correction DSP? Syzygy subs came with a trouble free automatic room correction feature that was run from a iPhone app, but you have to shop used since they went out of business during COVID. | |
| Used PS Audio Items PS audio and TMR are in the same town. I have always assume they have a working relationship. If not a closer connection. | |
| So many YouTube clips to evaluate sound quality. Why??? I answered my own question, and here is the answer for anyone interested. These are the specs for YouTube quality for audio. Actually, it looks like you can transmit high quality audio given the availability of flak and wave formats, however than ... | |
| So many YouTube clips to evaluate sound quality. Why??? Does anybody know the sound capabilities of YouTube compared with the music streaming services or even radio stations? What are the specs? MP3? |
