| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? ganainm... the reason the burden of proof is not onthe sceptics is because of 150 years of Electrical Theory and Engineering not to mention the huge majority of actual unbiased blinded testing. If that stuff means nothing to you, well there r... | |
| The big DAC decision slvrsrfr I don’t have the option of trying different components on my system.If you're truly contemplating a $23,000 DAC, you need to find a dealer who will accommodate you. | |
| I've got the Summertime Blues. Power conditioner necessary? stevea1298I have Furman units (model unknown) but notice that the readout sometimes goes into a low voltage situation, which it is unable to regulate. Have been seriously considering a PS regenerator unit ...If your voltage is that low, I’d sugges... | |
| I've got the Summertime Blues. Power conditioner necessary? melbguyoneThe cheapest and most well worn path is installing dedicated 20a lines to your system’s wpo’s using some higher quality 10 guage insulated wire back to ideally a dedicated subpanel with it’s own ground. So basically an isolated circ... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B lewm Actually, the flaw in my own position is that I did hear a difference between fuses, and the cheap fuse sounded better than the boutique fuse. That's not a "flaw" at all. You listened. You heard a difference. You had a preference. | |
| I need cables for my 2 channel system mayoradamwest I find the cable discussion very confusing, and it’s pretty tough to separate the snake oil from the substance ... Happy to hear any advice about the system, but in particular cabling. The cable discussions are not really as confusi... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B rauliruegas... when one audiophile spend 100+ in a single fuse and only because the amount he spends on it he is waiting for sure that will be listen an improvement and is ready to listen it in the very first moment he change it in his syste... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? bac2vinylPower cables can not make a difference…Can not convince me that the power cables that came with my Marantz MM8077 or my Parasound A21 are mediocre. This is a good example of the power of expectation bias. If you insist you cannot be c... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? dynaquest4 Our ears and brain have very short term audio memory. There’s a shred of truth to this, but it’s hardly an absolute truth. For example, I’ve haven’t listened to a Bob Dylan album in weeks. But I could easily distinguish his voice from B... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? shadornemMountain of BS with absolutely no evidence, just anecodotal stuff. I have never seen an AES paper proving sound differences of various cables and won’t ever see one because it is all equipment and component performance relatedPerhaps... | |
| Phono Preamp Recommendations lewm... I thought you were going to try a Nelson Pass phono stage next. Because ss is so great. The Xono Phono is generally $1500 to $2k used, but I think his latest designs are much better.Nelson Pass doesn't design phono stages. | |
| preamp inverts polarity kosst_amojanThe transmission characteristics of air certainly don’t resemble electrically balanced operation.That doesn’t mean that air is a "single-ended medium," as you’ve claimed. Air is also not a fig newton. That doesn’t mean air is a lemon ... | |
| preamp inverts polarity geoffkaitCleedsy, old bean, a vacuum is created by evacuating air from the system not by compressing it.Quite so. That's what I wrote: You can decompress air it until it's a vacuum ... | |
| preamp inverts polarity kosst_amojanAir is a single ended medium of transmission.It is? Exactly what do you mean by that?You can compress it much more than you can decompress it.You can decompress air it until it's a vacuum, so it isn't clear what you mean here. | |
