Ortofon A90 review.... wrong choice of gear
Robm1,Everything that you say/type would be logical and would make perfect sense, such as your Mercedes/tire analogy, if the prices of high-end audio equipment were directionally proportional to their performance but that is just not the case in m... 
Why no professional reviews of Evolution Acoustic
Let's just hope that whoever reviews the MMTwo's performs measurements as you never know what they mind find. Look at what John Atkinson uncovered in the latest issue of Stereophile; a corked bat! 
Digital Audio Denmark DACs
What Bigamp states is correct. 
This funny
Dylanhenry,I couldn't have said it better myself. It is after all the "Great Audiophile Swindle!" While there are many components that do merit their high cost because of materials used, processes and technologies invoked, most tweaks and cable cl... 
Digital Audio Denmark convertors
Were any of these auditions of the Digital Audio Denmark AX24 done at the 2X DSD sample rate, 5.6MHz? I believe that the AX24 is without peers and I'm not alone as it was chosen as the reference DSD converter at Telarc International records & ... 
I am sick of cables
The cable and tweak industries in audio are for the most part a sham and a big part of the great audiophile swindle. 
cable doubter no more
Jae,The transition of going from talking about cables to electronics is not as smooth. To answer your questions head on: Price alone is neither indicative of a component's performance (objectively) nor of its sound (subjectively)! Zieman,I beg to ... 
cable doubter no more
Jea,Those were used for exaggeration purposes. The end of my post I believe answered your questions. At the end of the day, what the high-end press considers "entry Level" components have the some limitations but if they have implemented "sound", ... 
cable doubter no more
Jea,Not exactly true. High-end amplifiers such as the early Krell KMA and and KRS series could produce enough current to be used as arc welders; this is not just a trivial act but an engineering accomplishment with substance and merit. My NRG Cont... 
cable doubter no more
Wow! There are new ones born every day. In their most fundamental and primitive form, cables can be characterized by their resistance "R", capacitance "C" and inductance "L". Anyone with a slight hint of scientific background knows that these are ... 
Holographic imaging
There in lies the rub:Norm there are a number of ways to enhance the spatial image and its dimensionality. BUT according to Roger Paul he's not processing the signal in any way other than purely amplifying it. He claims no processing nor signal ma... 
Holographic imaging
Norm,I agree with you that 95% of the High-End product have a hard time justifying their cost but I would venture to say that a good 70% of them are technically sound and can be defended in terms of theory and science. An amplifier circuit is as y... 
Holographic imaging
Norm,I'm not passing any judgment on the H-CAT. I have not even seen nor heard one. It may well be the great sound reproducer that you attest to. As I mentioned in my earlier post, I have used Multi-Tap Delay circuits to good effect and results in... 
Holographic imaging
Roger,Maybe I gave you too much credit in saying that you had implemented a Multi-Tap Processor circuit in your products. Your theories, analogies and explanations have left me wondering what your academic credentials are.I believe that Norm posse... 
Holographic imaging
Roger,“The Doppler detectors used in H-CAT require close to 200db of gain.” Huh, huh…… that’s an amplification factor of 100000000000. On a 1 V scale you are talking about a tenth of a nano-volt to produce a 1 Volt output and typical outputs. And ...
