.? Digital Reclocking and syncing clocks does anyone know the correct Answrrsb
one thing is for sure the best measurements don’t always sound the best . A perfect example A vacuum tube amp,or preamp measure no where near as good as even a mid fi amp but it’s distortions being even just sound right to the ear    No they ... 
Next best exponential DAC quality level?
My profile name is my name, but my name is not Cindy ... if anyone cares :-) .... and thank you for the compliment @seanheis1 though you probably give my social skills a better rating than they deserve. We don't have the ears, brain, sound system... 
Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks?
@mahgister , I will request that you delete your post, not because you said anything wrong, but because it is totally off topic, and that is what this thread is about really, staying on topic. I sent you one response privately.  
.? Digital Reclocking and syncing clocks does anyone know the correct Answrrsb
This is the problem @jimob , you have people who don't even know the most fundamental aspect of how a DAC works, commenting heavily and with authority, and at the same time making fun of people who actually do. Hard to navigate towards the correct... 
.? Digital Reclocking and syncing clocks does anyone know the correct Answrrsb
Would it not have been easier to just say "I have no idea, whatsoever, how a DAC works"?   lordmelton: The enemy of every DAC is jitter and even if a DAC has zero jitter it can’t compensate for the jitter coming in.  
The Big Misconception About Electricity
One word @helomech , Scientology.  
.? Digital Reclocking and syncing clocks does anyone know the correct Answrrsb
I am just copying these lines for posterity. I feel no need to comment on your knowledge and what you bring to this discussion. I will simply let them speak for themselves.   lordmelton:  And BTW re-clocking is for the computer or source not th... 
How do you know when a stereo sounds good?
@khughes , you are forcing me to both rethink my answer, to some degree, and revisit the question.   When do you know your system is pleasing to listen to? How do you conclusively prove to yourself that your system sounds good to you? How do yo... 
The Big Misconception About Electricity
That Joe Biden is President in the US, Justin Trudeau in Canada, and Boris Johnson in the UK, it is pretty plain that there are issues with democracy. That is not meant to be a left/right statement, just that these individuals are obviously so fa... 
Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks?
Let me give you my take on this. I will even state that I think most tweaks are ludicrous. I think threads on the latest color of SR fuse while Ted laughs his way to the bank are 3rd level ludicrous. So that is where I am coming from. So how do I ... 
The Big Misconception About Electricity
AI is not conspiracy theory. That scares the heck out of a lot of smart people. For the rest ..... just good humor.  
Ethernet Clocking
@lmcmalo , I expect you would have achieved better results with a $70 USB isolator, a $100 secondary supply, and $50 cable, than the $400 cable, but that is just a guess. It seems obvious to me that you understand Ethernet at an implementation l... 
Where the heck are all these manufacturers coming from!
@rbertalotto, Lots of people with money, but not a lot of people with happiness. Companies selling $59,000 cables, are not selling audio products, no matter what they may convince an audio magazine / reviewer to say about them. They are selling ... 
Next best exponential DAC quality level?
@lemonhaze , I am taking George Carlin's advice and keeping a list ....  
How does a REL subwoofer add dimensionality and depth to a sound system?
Unless you are using a sub array, the settings on the back of subwoofer, even a basic EQ function, is in my mind, while not worthless, not that far off. IF you are going to go the sub route, please invest in a microphone and learning something li...
