Resolving Hum with Battery Back-up (EcoFlow) vs Power Conditioners: success vs failure
uberk I did not draw fast conclusions in my first post ... The title of the thread stated that power conditioners were snake oil. That’s a false claim. It was the result of 4 months of pain. So much of that pain could have been avoided... 
Any one measured the EMI/RFI attenuation performance of audiophile power conditioners?
audio_phool ... you don’t get home audition from dealers all over the world. So that option is out of the question ... It’s certainly true that some dealers do not offer home auditions. I’ve found that the "better" dealers - the ones who sell ... 
Any one measured the EMI/RFI attenuation performance of audiophile power conditioners?
audio_phool... not everyone has the option/luxury of trying all at home. So listening is not always the viable option .. Many local dealers allow in home auditions. Many online dealers allow returns. ... if you don’t find anything wrong with ... 
Any one measured the EMI/RFI attenuation performance of audiophile power conditioners?
audio_phool ... I can conclude that for most of the audiophile grade power conditioner manufacturer, the available specs are usless ... That's why it pays to test components in your own system. Synergestic reseach is not publishing any spec ... 
sending signal wireless from Mac to DAC- whats the best way ?
ssg308 I decided to rip the wall and run in wall cable. You won't be sorry. Nothing is better than a good hardwire connection, imo.  
A GOOD dry record cleaning device
I use a Klaudio record cleaner and don't have much use for a dry brush. If your LPs are truly clean you don't have much use for a stylus cleaner, either.  
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
clustrocasual It may have been the telegraph. regardless, theres a whole documentary on it that discusses the huge research that went into cables ... You seem to be very confused about transatlantic cables. Perhaps you should watch your docume... 
Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line
I’m not a fan of Aurender. I started streaming with a Raspberry Pi using a DigiOne HAT for SPDIF out to my DAC. It ran great, sounded good, but wasn’t very elegant, so I replaced it with a new N100H from an authorized dealer. The Aurender was neve... 
Example of a piece o’ crap, useless review
soix Sorry for the rant, but especially as a former reviewer this piece of garbage pushed all my buttons and really ticked me off.   Are you often this excitable?  
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
audphile1 What we’ve been discussing is molecular explanation of cable burn in. ... which has absolutely nothing to do with the first transatlantic telephone cables, notwithstanding the claims made by clustrocasual. So now we can move on.  
Qobuz vs. Tidal
soix ... With the level of tech today you wouldn’t think it’d be too hard to have someone fairly easily implement a decent search function ... That's a function of the software you're using to stream Qobuz, e.g. Conductor if you're using a... 
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
audphile1 The first official transatlantic phone ... was not transmitted by wire, but by radio waves.  That is correct. What we've been discussing are transatlantic cable communications.    
The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"
clustrocasual So when the first cable was laid under the Atlantic and people tried to make a transcontinental telephone call, the sound came out skewed in time, noisy and garbled. This is fiction. For one thing, the first transatlantic cables ... 
Qobuz vs. Tidal
jgjg123 Qobuz customer service is worse than terrible. Really? What problems did you have?  
The Music Room
I've sold quite few pieces through TMR and have been perfectly satisfied. One option they offer is consignment sale - it can be worthwhile if if you're in no hurry for your cash.
