Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
kosst_amojan...  what you think you're hearing IS pure belief and NOT proof in the slightest. Such a semantically obvious fact illustrates how deeply confused you people are about the difference between belief and facts ... I've never seen a... 
Quadraphonic records (LPs to you and me)
tatyana69 If normal analogue comes through as 2 channel, what effect does a quadraphonic record have? It isn’t clear what you mean by "normal analog." Analog can be any number of channels. Two-channel stereo is just one configuration.In any event,... 
Snake oil and tweaks that work!
hifiman5To me, at least, "snake oil" is a pejorative for tweaking.I am inclined to agree.  There are a few posters here that seem poised to pounce on subjective evaluations, chiming in with demands for level-matched double blind testing, for exam... 
Can't we all just get along?
czariveyDontcha realize that audiophile world is a nutshell full of propaganda and brainwash ...Actually, no , and I've been into the high-end for decades. Perhaps you could offer some examples, rather than simply state opinion as fact.When ma... 
Snake oil and tweaks that work!
hifiman5... Whatever your belief system about audio engineering or snake oil (whatever that is) ..."Snake oil" seems to be whatever kosst says it is.

kosst_amojan658 posts12-11-2017 9:08pmI can't believe I'm reading somebody deriding engineers for being obsessed with good circuits and not considering snake oil enough.It's okay, because I don't believe that you have that read that. Who here ... 
Which watts are the right watts in SS amps?
willemjWell, it is a free world, fortunately.Actually, no it isn't. Not even close. Unfortunately.

randy-11the problem with any listening in a sighted test is confirmation bias That's simply silly. For example, there are many instances where the listener in a sighted test expected no improvement at all, or expected the result to be a detrime... 
Schiit Yggdrasil -- 21 bit?
defiantboomerang Whatever happened to understanding science and engineering instead of relying on subjective assessments of "sound quality". The two are not mutually exclusive. In any event, this is a hobbyist’s group, not an engineering forum, ... 
Stylus alignment help
There’s parallax error on these pics, so it’s difficult to tell for sure. But it does look like your overhang is way off. I'd set that first, then check for tangency, then azimuth last. Then repeat. 
CleanerVinyl-Ultrasonic record cleaner
pbnaudioI've had two of the KL Audio - before there was a Sound dampening option, they were as noisy as a regular ultrasonic tub ...Oh yes, the noise is awful without the silencer.    
CleanerVinyl-Ultrasonic record cleaner
pbnaudio...I did see the Amari once at a show in Norway - it is quite large and noisy - well all the Ultra Sonic ones are.The Klaudio machine is very, very quiet if you use it with the sound dampening option.

viridianTalking about baseball is very different than giving advice on what audio gear to spend ones hard earned money on. That would be more akin to suggesting to a player which bat to use.I think that's a faulty analogy. For the most part, t... 
Singers do not sing the language they speak
China Forbes of Pink Martini sings in more than a dozen languages. In the '60s, many pop groups sang in other languages, including the Beatles. 
Which audio component would you like Santa to place under the christmas tree for you?
akg_caIts a free-form forum with a broad variance of value judgements and personal opinions , including humour. Quite so. But once someone posts about their sex life and the moderators allow it, then response to the remark seems fair to me.
