| Passive vs Active...Again! DSP can only fix some of your room issues and only in one relatively small area depending on how bad the problem is. Not very familiar with the Dutch and Dutch, but the Kii 3, I have heard and it lives up to the billing. If I had no ability to co... | |
| How to identify my weakest link? I should also add that I would absolutely benefit from some room treatment but to be honest, aesthetics matter more to me. I’m just not interested in hanging clouds or placing random panels on the walls. My goal is to make the stereo sound as goo... | |
| Getting Rid of Transformer Hum @rakuennow Two things, one it concerns me that you are seeing such a large drop under load. Some drop is expected. That large a drop could be indicative of a poor connection somewhere or undersized wires. DC offset on the AC line is caused b... | |
| The Big Misconception About Electricity I consider relentlessly posting things without a nary of due diligence on almost anything you are posting, posting things from people recognized pretty much as frauds, and letting emotions eliminate your ability to take a balanced and accurate vie... | |
| When choosing new Speakers, what matters most to you? Even they will tell you that 75% of gm vehicles are now built in mexico and canada in non union plants. Do you believe everything you are told? Most GM vehicles sold in the US are manufactured in the US. Not all, but >50%. I don't have a ha... | |
| The Big Misconception About Electricity Kitechaser, Seriously bud. You have some projection issues. Look at some of what you have wrote. It's pretty unbalanced, highly reactionary, and does not show stable control over your emotions. You definitely have company. | |

| Weakest digital link: DAC - Streamer - Server? @alexb76 People are still making claims about digital that have not been true for decades. This is just one of them. There used to be problems with jitter on TOSLINK, but then just don't use it. The rare time you may get jitter on SPDIF if poorl... | |
| The Big Misconception About Electricity @djones51 , you enjoying this alternate universe? I wonder about the stability of someone who thinks discussing relative military strength is advocating for Nuclear war. Of course, hard to tell if that is just a dishonest, attempt to discredit me... | |
| Choke power supply- part 2 Whether you put the choke on the input or the output the effect is the same. A transformer reflects the impedance from one side to the other based on the turns ratio. Even if the inductor is on the front AC side, it still effectively forms an LC w... | |
| Choke power supply- part 2 @daveyf , The first question would be do you know what a choke power supply is? More accurately would be a choke filtered power supply, with a few different variants. Why not? Other than the cost and bulk, there is the question of whethe... | |
| PS Audio FR-30 Speaker... Passive speakers are so 1990 :-) | |
| Weakest digital link: DAC - Streamer - Server? To sum up however because Cindy will be along shortly to tell everyone what's what. Gotta love it when your reputation proceeds you .... Let's do a thought experiment: I make a DAC. The DAC has a SD memory card on which there is music. The DA... | |
| Smart power supplies for turntable To clarify, I have a Clearaudio turntable with a 12v DC motor. Clearaudio indicates that their DC power supply is voltage stabilized, yet they sell a separate 12v battery power supply. This suggests the stock power supply has some limitations. ... |
