| Phono cable build question sleepwalker65Cleeds and Viridian, you are mistaken. The two conductors from each channel connect to the signal carrying twisted pair that is within the cable shield. One cable for right, one cable for left. The shield connects to the black tonearm... | |
| Phono cable build question kommanderkurt When making regular interconnects with shielded cable, I normally solder the shield to the negative conductor and only on the source side of the cable. Do I do the same with phono cables? It isn't clear what you mean here. Typic... | |
| advice for mono cartridge chaksterHigher compliance = better tracking ability.That's not really true. Typically, the best tracking performance is achieved when cartridge compliance is matched to the pickup arm's effective mass. The compliance of a cartridge itself has no ... | |
| Theoretical question about how CD's work marklingsI for one do not believe any error correction is needed. You copy a file you get a perfect copy unless someone can show me why a copy of a Data file from a CD should be different from a copy of an audio file ...You need error correct... | |
| Does anyone have any impressions about the Aphex Sound Exciter ? The Aphex is a distortion generator. That’s the last thing I’d want in an audio system.If you hope to get "hi dynamic range and punch from my vinyl as I get from the CDs," I suggest looking at your LP playback gear. It all starts at the source. | |

| What is the least compressed signal? kosst_amojanWhat extensive evidence? The evidence you and Geoff keep citing I debunked? That miserably flawed, unscientific evidence ...Kosst, I’d ask why you are so angry and argumentative, but you’ve already answered the question. I feel badly f... | |
| What is the least compressed signal? noble100... if readers here can't even agree that CDs generally have compressed dynamics mainly due to the Loudness Wars, and conscious decisions made by the recording engineers to compromise good dynamics for higher volume, then we either al... | |
| What is the least compressed signal? geoffkait ... if the range of values that represent dynamic range in the database are 1-20, whereas real dynamic range values are from 1 to 130 dB or higher, then the database contains approximate values ... The database shows trends. That sums it... | |
| Answer me this... I agree with @viridian and @jaybe, and think the OP's perspective is a little skewed.For example, I question this: The original master tape of the BOTW session is known for poor SQ. Actually, Roy Halee - one of the great recording engineers of all... | |
| High quality in-wall UL-C2 rated 10-gauge A/C wiring ? auxinput1. Take two 50 foot lengths of 14awg romex. 2. Take the two black hot leads of both cables and connect them to the same 15A/20A circuit breaker. You'd need to check NEC on this as well as your local code. Also, note that only breakers d... | |
| Recordings by Elton John, Nirvana and Thousands More Lost in Fire Agreed, @nonoise, the NYT is flawed. Much so. I'm not willing to throw the gray lady out with the bathwater, though, or to proclaim it "the enemy of the people." | |
| Recordings by Elton John, Nirvana and Thousands More Lost in Fire millercarbon Here you have just one guy, a very well-read but otherwise ordinary audiophile, and he is able without any "reporting" whatsoever off the top of his head able to inform you better than the NYT.

| Recordings by Elton John, Nirvana and Thousands More Lost in Fire millercarbonLOL! And it only took the New York Times ELEVEN YEARS to report on it!"The paper of record", indeed!Cheap shot.

| Dealers and exaggerated treble kenjiti immediately heard and pointed out that the speakers were wired out of phase. He then corrected the mistake. I was shocked at how this could have happened. Either deliberate, or a mistake. Either way its deplorable. It’s "deplorable" to ma... |
