| The Insane World of High End Audio! Is it All a Scam? I got tired of his schtick a while ago. IMO, he is simply ignorant to a lot of higher end audio. He has no reference point. If he wants to tout a $129 Class D Chinese mini-amp (or whatever he's reviewing that day), fine. He reviewed the Emotiva C... | |
| Fine tuning the system. Where do you start and how do you proceed ? Assuming that you already have your "reference" copy of a recording, my next step would be interconnects and/or speaker cables. In a perfect world, you'd have a few sets to try/listen to/compare. And, for the record, it's not always the most ex... | |
| My Esoteric DV-50S died. Where do I go next? Ahhh....the DV50. I remember it fondly. Not very reliable, though. Jm2cw. Esoteric is tough to beat on sound quality. | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. As good an analogy as any, I guess. I wrote off ASR long ago..... | |
| CD Player Distortion? Out of curiosity, when you were "re-arranging" stuff, did you change out the power cord, or plug the Marantz 8004 into a different circuit or outlet? | |
| Movie/film suggestions. Smell My Bukakke. | |
| Switching out tweeters At the very least, you need to know the specs on the current (old) tweeters. You may be able to look it up if it has a model # on the back of it. Barring that, replacing a tweeter with one not specifically designed for the speaker crossover/enclo... | |
| Things we cannot be bothered by anymore Cable/fuse arguements. I don't care. Buy them/try them/keep them/return them. Don't care. Do whatever you want. | |
| Takatsuki 300B $255 !! LOL. Come on, man.... | |
| Does anyone listen to the radio anymore? I do, but very occasionally. Mostly NPR for classical, or just to pick up the local weather/snowstorm info. I don’t do any real serious listening from it. I have a tuner and an extra input on the preamp....might as well use it. | |
| HAVE YOU ARRIVED AT YOUR FINAL SYSTEM AND WHAT’S IN IT? WHAT ARTIST IS YOUR GO TO? @calvinj , Thanks. It's got a million options on it and it takes a while to "dial it in" like you want it, but there's very little you can't do with it. I'm a fan of Classe's stuff, though it's getting a little long in the tooth at this point. I... | |
| what is more popular silver or black face plates I don't really care, I guess......never really thought about it too much. | |
| What does your Virtual System page say about you? I think I have speaker wires listed first, lol. What does it mean? No idea.....maybe I'm just disorganized. | |
| BS meter is pegged! I had no idea there were so many customers for a $18k streamer solution. Obviously, my bad. Let's not contact the manufacturer with any questions, let's big IT dick battle over stripped down OS's and argue amongst ourselves. This place kin... | |
| BS meter is pegged! Here's an idea....why not contact the company and ask them to explain it to you? |
