| Why hasn’t B&W ever entered the ultra hi-end for speakers? They had. Nautilus was the best speaker ever made. | |
| Buying a new TT today About 80% of the time, the stylus profile makes a bigger difference than both the cartridge and the table itself at the price range you are considering. Try getting something like a shibata or line contact type of stylus to get the best out of vin... | |
| Will a $700 turntable outperform a CD player? teo audioAll sound studios record almost everything digitally today. 95% of the analog you think you are listening to has already been a to deed once at the microphone and dee to aed again onto the vinyl. So even in the best analog system you h... | |
| Will a $700 turntable outperform a CD player? Ok I give up LOL....I guess you guys have made your minds up, I will not confuse you with the facts any more :-) | |
| Will a $700 turntable outperform a CD player? The bog standard CD will give you 96db dynamic range, which is still about 25db better than even the BEST vinyl. | |
| Will a $700 turntable outperform a CD player? @geoffkait That is the WHOLE point. No matter what, music pressed on to the vinyl MUST be compressed down to 70db. It can NOT be written otherwise.So, 144db is compressed down to 70db in the BEST case. The bog standard CD gives you 96db dynamic ra... | |

| Will a $700 turntable outperform a CD player? Very unlikely. Two completely different mediums. One destroys what is being played a little bit every time and the other is contactless and digital, no audible noise and at higher sampling frequencies almost indistinguishable from the true recordi... | |
| Recommendations for fast sounding cables Not quite sure what a "fast sounding cable" means :-) I am guessing it is the "schlack" sound it makes when it hits the back of an audiophile when used as whip ??? | |
| Help Match Cables To Gear Please Noone past the age of about 35 will be able to tell the difference between speaker cables of 20 bucks versus 1000 bucks. Get some 14 or 12 gauge copper wire and you will be set. Any stray capacitance or inductance of a wire less than 20 feet wil... | |
| Are these Speakers the BEST on Planet Earth ?... Best speakers in my opinion were probably B&W Nautilus speakers. Up at the top however, most are very close to each other. | |
| Streaming: WiFi or wired?? Wifi is more than adequately fast for even the highest sampled digital music, unless you have an ancient AP router older than about 6 years. | |
| Streaming: WiFi or wired?? In this thread, I have read some references being made to "noise" in the PSUs and/or wifi signals. This is completely irrelevant. The wifi signals (and hence the audio signals in the data packets) are carried in a digitized way and the PSU noise ... | |
| Streaming: WiFi or wired?? Mahler123 is right.Both wired & wireless will work excellent as long as they are working within their limits. The chances of wireless dropping packets and causing re transmissions are a bit higher than wired, especially if a lot of wifi device... |
