Next best exponential DAC quality level?
@lowrider57 , well when the members with 4,661 posts don't call out bad behavior I guess the new guy has to do it. Do you consider that a badge of honor and consider the behavior acceptable, including 10 troll posts from one person and frequent at... 
Single Ended DAC vs Dual Differential XLR DAC
@yage I don’t see what beef people have with ASR or Amir. I think he’s doing a great service for the community measuring all this gear. Because measurements cannot be refuted. Because it pokes holes in audiophile claims. Because how does on... 
Humm from phono but not dc or aux ?
I assume it goes away if the cable from the turntable is removed? See my post above w.r.t. RF. You may be able to fix it by improving the wire in the turntable / arm, assuming  your other phono cables are properly shielding. If not, may be an iss... 
Humm from phono but not dc or aux ?
@analoghaven  - Can you please describe this "RF" noise you talked about. It is not clear.  
The Big Misconception About Electricity
I think we would have some interesting arguments over a beer @mahgister though I expect you are more a wine drinker, with perhaps a penchant for brandy. Have a good rest of your day.  
Does Time alignment and Phase coherency make for a better loudspeaker?
@ghasley , I did not take offence. It would be hard to confuse me with amplifier dude. Honestly, I am just about ready to murder myself with a fork what I am doing is so boring w.r.t. work. Terribly important, but brutally boring. I am helping to ... 
The Big Misconception About Electricity
The evidence suggests that only a few thousand years ago planets moved close to the earth, producing electrical phenomena of intense beauty and terror.   We contend that humans once saw planets suspended as huge spheres in the heavens. Immersed... 
Does Time alignment and Phase coherency make for a better loudspeaker?
@ghasley , I have no idea who or what a kenjit is, but I take great offence to being compared to amplifierdude or mivmike or mikemiv, or whatever he goes by today, knowing him from another site, and in the my limited time on here. What he thinks h... 
Does Time alignment and Phase coherency make for a better loudspeaker?
@mijostyn, If you like your system, I would not necessarily recommend anything you are doing other than what you have right now. However, since you have the equipment and I get the impression like to tinker, I would look at doing a gated frequenc... 
What, in your opinion, should the rules be for YouTube Reviews?
@mijostyn , those experienced in electronics and the design of electronics products can view photographs and make generalized comments about the quality of designs, based on experience, good engineering practice and a bit of common sense. Like any... 
Humm from phono but not dc or aux ?
@analoghaven, when you say "faint RF", can I assume you mean you are literally picking up a radio station on your turntable input? It happens, so I don’t want to discount that is what you mean as that would be about the only way you now the noise ... 
The Big Misconception About Electricity
It my experience @mahgister, politeness is the key to very slow discovery and often ends in quiet anger and resentment. Out in the open "argument" and "conflict" if kept to the topic at hand, and not made overtly personal reaches a better, more nu... 
Next best exponential DAC quality level?
You only consider my posts argumentative because you do not agree with them and you are unable to refute them. I see me and a few others trying to address the op's @martinman 's post, and a whole bunch of you making personal attacks on those that ... 
The Big Misconception About Electricity
@teo_audio , Knowing my name and seeing my face will in no way change what I wrote, but it may encourage you and others to dox me. I wasn't born yesterday. This is just another attempt to discredit me and to avoid addressing what I have written. ... 
How do you know when a stereo sounds good?
First, I have to address @aewarren's post. Unless you like to whine, Adele will never be listenable. If I didn't speak the same language as Adele and didn't interpret every song as a whine fest, perhaps I may like her. Unfortunately, short of a br...
