| Synergestic Black Fuse vs Audio Magic BeesWax kosst_amojanI don’t doubt some people are sure they hear something. I’m pretty sure it completely in their head thoughOf course it’s "in their head." Everything we hear is "in our head." We hear with our ears and brain, which are located in our h... | |

| Classical Music for Aficionados schubertIf you were not that there in 1950’s and were of adult reasoning you have ZERO idea of what happened and never will Huh? If you think "rock and roll ... has destroyed classical music" you apparently are not living in the present time. T... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados schubertI can see the meaning of this (I think) but rock and roll is what has destroyed classical music . Bad taste rules and makes fools Classical music hasn't been destroyed. You'll have to find another reason to dislike rock and roll. | |
| Our Responsibility rbstehnoWhat is snake oil? Who gives the right of 1 person to call something snake oil?Those who rail against other people’s religions and dismiss them as "snake-oilers" are nothing new here or on other forums. It’s sad, and the result of hate an... | |
| Theoretical question about how CD's work kosst_amojanThat's the stupidest thing I ever heard. Cheap, flimsy optical drives jammed into laptops have no problem tracking a CD spinning it more than 50 times normal play back speed. Don't be silly. There's a big difference between playing... | |
| Phono cable build question sleepwalker65 The use of twisted pair cable with a separate shield both provides continuity of shielding for both signal-bearing conductors of each channel, and phono stage chassis ground for the tonearm.Whatever works for you is fine, of cours... | |
| 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... |
