| Bypassing / Jumping Pots? Ex: Rotel RB-1050 or Parasound HCA-1000a Just turning them up all the way should pretty much be same thing unless you are going to desolder the wires and solder a jumper at the circuit board to eliminate the short run of wire and even then with good gear the change should be negligible. | |

| Most Shocking Upgrade to your System (LIFEPO4 Battery on Network Streamer) @brandonhifi How big are your batteries and how many hours of streaming do you get per charge? Have you ever tried charging a battery while it's powering the streamer instead of switching them? | |
| We Can Make Classic Cars Outperform Today's "SuperCars": Why Not Vintage Audio? @ketchup Did ya read the whole thing or just cherry pick the line. If you can show me a 70s era classic that run a sub 10 second quarter, have a top speed of over 180 miles and hour and brake 60 to 0 in less than 110 ft, pull over a 1 G on a figu... | |
| We Can Make Classic Cars Outperform Today's "SuperCars": Why Not Vintage Audio? @crustycoot Careful what you wish for. We have neither enough the raw materials required to make enough batteries or the power grid to charge them to replace gas powered cars. The global drought is almost at a tipping point where hydro electric... | |
| We Can Make Classic Cars Outperform Today's "SuperCars": Why Not Vintage Audio? @waytoomuchstuff I appreciate the response but the real answer is you can't make a classic outperform today's cars or a vintage stereo outperform todays HIFI. Sure a car exists that can run sub 7 second quarters and be "street legal" but not in ... | |
| Foobar now comes in x64 / Version 2 beta Is it backward compatible with the older plugins? | |
| We Can Make Classic Cars Outperform Today's "SuperCars": Why Not Vintage Audio? Fastest Car is a Netflix original series refutes that assumption. (Spoiler) Not only did the supercar beat the vintage, the driver just pushed the launch button, put his foot to the floor and watched pro drivers in his mirror. The vintage cars we... | |
| Warming up digital in my setup My first thought it's your source. I haven't used an Iphone but USB isn't Apple's first choice of output and the USB cable length could also be a problem if you're trying to sit on the couch while listening. I'm sure you don't want to hear this b... | |
| recommended speakers for Raven Blackhawk 3.1 I've heard the Raven Blackhawk with the Tekton MOAB speakers and it was an impressive presentation. They are HUGE and out of your price range but if you have the space for them I can't imagine them being beaten for the price. | |

| Audiophile Jargon Demonstrated You missed Digital Glare. That additional background that adds an unnatural /unpleasant tonality. I found it most noticeable with vocals. It's almost as if autotune was on. | |

| Best budget USB If you're really budget. One of the biggest changes I've made to my system was filtering the power from the USB source with a simple power blocker adapter and then adding it back with a powered USB hub. If you want to go whole hog you can use a ... |
