| AC Regenerator blueranger... About bad electricity. I downloaded one of the free apps for the measurement. I'm of electromagnetic radiation ... I got it to measure the electronic field on a tape head to see if. It needed demagnetized but couldn't find anyt... | |
| narrow and wide baffles and imaging melbguyone Re: the IRS-Beta’s ... I don’t think the narrow wood frame of the mid/high panels was completely adequate to tame the resonance of the dual L-Emim drivers as they would ’rattle’ at high volumes. Huh? I've never detected any rattlin... | |
| narrow and wide baffles and imaging josh358The problem that I had with the imaging of the IRS Betas that my friend had was that each frequency range came from a different height. Maybe his listening seat was too close, but it used to drive me crazy. Very cool plasma tweeters, b... | |
| Best preamp output option for headphone amp hookup? The shortest path from the DCM-10 to your headphone amp is almost certainly through the tape output. That's how I connected my headphone amplifier. | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Stereophile brayeagleHe must have been a proponent of Peter Azcel and The Audio CriticMore likely the other way around. Julian Hirsch and Stereo Review predated The Audio Critic. | |
| Talk but not walk? michaelgreenaudio Analogluvr you said" I questioned the veracity of Elizabeth’s claim that she can hear the difference between different electrical receptacles."Actually Elizabeth is correct. Even back in the late 70’s we would wire studios a cert... | |
| Talk but not walk? analogluvr ... it angers me that people are profiting off of this nonsense fraudulent stuff ...It's interesting how frequently some here bleat about what they allege is fraud in high-end audio, with some even claiming that it is widespread. But... | |
| BEST INTERCONNECT FOR $25 EACH? terry9@cleeds "we can say a "ground loop" is formed whenever two or more grounds are at different potentials"I don’t think so. From Wiki, "A ground loop is caused by the interconnection of electrical equipment that results in there being multiple... | |
| BEST INTERCONNECT FOR $25 EACH? terry9A star ground is important if ground is used as a circuit element, such as a signal return. A shield attached at one end is not part of the circuit, and cannot form a ground loop, or hum. This is completely mistaken - a shield attached a... | |
| Bi wire, bi speaker/amp pack66184I am curious about Bi-amping, and this may be a silly question. The amplifiers to be used should have their own volume control? Most of the stereo amps I have looked at do not have this ... I thought the set up would be one preamp fe... | |
| BEST INTERCONNECT FOR $25 EACH? terry9The problem with connecting the shield to the source end is that if a source has no ground connection, you will end up with an ungrounded shield. Almost all components today have a separate ground. If not, you can always run a wire from th... | |
| BEST INTERCONNECT FOR $25 EACH? terry9The shield should be connected to the component with the most robust ground, which is often the amplifier.I'm not sure what you mean by "robust ground." A good ground has low resistance and low impedance and - unless there's something amis... | |
| Two Subs? There are advantages to having multiple subs. One is that it’s easier to integrate a pair of subs into a room than one single sub. Another is that the notion that all bass is mono and omnidirectional is really a myth. There is such a thing as ster... | |
| Is there actually a difference? twoleftears... not a huge difference between competent SS designs, despite the supposed chasms that audio reviewers like to dwell on and rhapsodize about ...The problem with opaque criticism such as this is that labeling something a "huge diff... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados I had no idea we had such horn aficionados here. Regardless of what might be the best horn solo of all time, this guy’s CD brings the instrument to a whole different level. He’s brilliant. |
