| Notifications when someone comments on my virtual system @jaytor I got an email notification... That will work great. Thanks Tammy. Do you get a notification that I replied?? | |
| Holo Audio May DAC @jtrimm Thanks for the update. Very frustrating I had to get rid of mine early. Not enjoying the temporary loss of my system at all... | |
| Notifications when someone comments on my virtual system Am I correct that the notifications only appear when you're in the systems pages?Would be amazing if they also showed up in your forum notifications (where most people check). | |
| Pass Labs Int 25 vs Int 60 @bluorion With any Nelson Pass design you should assume it'll get pretty warm. I think his general rule is to keep it around a level where you can keep your hand on the heat sinks for about 5 seconds before being forced to pull away. I've had an... | |
| Upgrading from Thiel 2.7 to Sonus Faber or Focal??? Great thread with lots of helpful and productive discussion. A few additional thoughts...If you arent even going to use dsp, taking measurements of your system to see where you are at is really helpful to achieving better sound My only experie... | |
| Differential Balanced Sound Quality Thanks for all the discussion folks. It's always nice to read a thread that actually educates, or at least presents the opportunity... | |
| Perfect Path "Solutions" (PPS) eMat Good to see this thread is back to name calling and turn-based insults. Super productive. The only way to win the argument is to ignore and move on folks. It's the internet, just let the other person have their perceived victory... or fight fore... | |
| Upgrading from Thiel 2.7 to Sonus Faber or Focal??? Might be worth getting REW, a UMIK-1 calibrated USB microphone, and doing a frequency sweep of your room. That it took me *so* long to take this step and was a huge mistake. For $100 and a bit of mental effort (REW is free), you can see exactly ... | |
| Who has switched from a PS Audio BHK Preamp to something else? Did you know you can switch the current and voltage settings internally? With a proper adapter, you can use 6SN7s. My favorite is a pair of Sylvania VT-231 - really opened up the preamp in every dimension while adding dynamics and authority. Ki... | |
| Pass Labs Int 25 vs Int 60 @stevehuff Really great comparisons in that review Steve. For people who haven't clicked yet, Steve also has top-quality integrateds from Luxman, Vinnie La Rossie, and Line Magnetic on hand for comparisons. What a privilege to have those in the ... | |
| Differential Balanced Sound Quality I believe the only benefit is that you can connect the circuit to other balanced equipment. (Unless you really like the sound of a signal passed through a transformer of op-amp as is used to create a balanced output from a single-ended device. A... | |
| Differential Balanced Sound Quality @atmasphere Yes, indeed... the half terminology could lead people astray in that way, thanks. A related question that has been bothering me. If your circuit isn't perfectly duplicated after signal splitting, doesn't this introduce timing errors ... | |
| Differential Balanced Sound Quality @oldears Great quote. There's someone over on diyaudio who's posting tag is "The power supply of my power supply is my FRIEND!" | |
| Differential Balanced Sound Quality Also, I took the opportunity to read the article I linked. It has lots of good information about the 2nd harmonic, but none about the 3rd. Here’s some more Pass writing that discusses both:https://www.passdiy.com/project/articles/audio-distortion-... | |
| Differential Balanced Sound Quality @atmasphere Ralph, apparently we posted at the exact same time. Any facts of operation I got wrong in mine? As always, thanks for your contributions... |
