| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators lewmIn my opinion, playing LPs under a dust cover induces more sonic degradation in the form of coloration than a tick or pop as forms of noise. I think that depends on the particular turntable and dustcover. I would have agreed with you back ... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators mijostyn Contrary to popular mythology records come from the manufacturer perfectly clean. That's just plain wrong. I've been in record pressing plants and seen the LPs waiting to be sleeved. These aren't dust-free rooms, so of course some dust... | |
| Audiodesk pro with only water I use the Klaudio US machine, which the manufacturer says should be used only with distilled water. It works great, and removes the contamination from any LP except the rare, badly abused used record. For them, I use a Nitty Gritty machine to prec... | |
| Interconnect Directionality roberttcan .... it is the pundits who need to take said blind tests and prove they can hear a difference ...Nobody here is obligated to "prove" anything to you or anyone else. Of course, you’re not obligated to accept any of their representations... | |
| Headphone King of Soundstage? I've really never heard a headphone that could portray soundstage. How could it? The sound is in your head. | |
| Interconnect Directionality roberttcan I am willing to test on any system you wish to configure ...Let's see if the group can agree about what that system might look like. Then you could try to assemble something comparable at one of the major audio shows, and invite Audiog... | |
| Interconnect Directionality jetterI have no ideal why what I believe is a small group of persons on A'gon would think that blind testing won't yield fair and impartial results. Please do not repeat the GK arguments against it that the testers are going to rig the test.... | |
| Interconnect Directionality roberttcanYou just assume I have never done these tests. I have, and more ... I am not under any illusion that all the typical measurements done fully characterize an amplifier. It is one of the reasons why I designed a specific piece of test equ... | |
| Developing critical listening skills roberttcanFloyd Toole's research at Harman would suggest otherwise ...Quite so! Those who seek statistically valid results from controlled, double-blind listening tests often provide some training for the test subjects in advance of the test. In ... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool mapmanThe thing is not all nonsense, disinformation and bad behavior violates the stated forum rules, so can’t rely on that alone ... There are no rules that cover nonsense and disinformation ... so its up to all good citizens to help make fo... | |
| Something For The Fuse Guys ... geoffkait ... get this, Kramer dude wanted my customer to pass ten consecutive blind tests. That means in a row. I ask you, gentle readers, does that seem fair? Or am I incorrect that just because someone calls a controlled double blind test SCIE... | |
| Something For The Fuse Guys ... geoffkait... the peer review process. What a scam that is ...It's not really inherently a scam. The process is imperfect, for sure, but that shouldn't wholly disqualify it.It is interesting how it's apparently impossible to have a meaningful conv... | |
| Something For The Fuse Guys ... roberttcanYes, unlike all your claims, it was published.Where and when was it published? Remember your mantra: "What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence." | |
| Something For The Fuse Guys ... roberttcan I have to imagine in any blind listening test where the organizers went through all the trouble of training the participants, that the results were of course published. Please share the link with us here. Why would you imagine that?... | |
| Something For The Fuse Guys ... roberttcanUntrained listeners are able to discern small differences in audio performance in quick AB blind testing better than trained listeners are in uncontrolled situations. That is a very interesting claim. That’s especially so because in most... |
