| Cable "burning": Real or VooDoo ??? Oh Sean,apaologies, "chucklehead" myself. I misunderstood, no, I did not use anything to speed up the process. Just played music. | |
| Cable "burning": Real or VooDoo ??? Haven't we been through this all before ? And with the same yay and nay sayers? My humble opinion is that it is not voodoo, I think I have heard differences before, during and after burn in again and again, but the sceptical part in me would like ... | |
| Fly in the SACD Ointment? CW, splendid thoughts as usual. They make my hair stand on end but you may well be right and hence we will never get out of this rut. Being steamrolled by Mannheim again, no matter in what format, is hardly a pleasant prospective. So I suggest we ... | |
| Who R U? Oh Larry, don't you think, your thought would make a nice thread for others to comment as well? Just an idea... | |
| Who R U? Greetings Larry,I like your thought and I do agree, that when we feel "right", we are indeed in harmony with ourselves. I also agree, that the midrange harmony my tube gear will bring, invariably will put me back into feeling "right" no matter how... | |
| Attention Scientists, Engineers and Na-s Ha Kat, there you got me...its the old theological question between knowing and believing....Yes I trust my ears, but I don't know if I should. Satisfied? (-; | |
| Strange Turntable Question Just to make sure, please take a pencil and apply the same pressure on it with your thumb and first finger. If you feel vibration, it just proves that you are alive. But since this is probably really something in your Gyrodec, I would try first to... | |
| Attention Scientists, Engineers and Na-s Jostler, I've just been on the webside you proposed. Fascinating. The ABX results of the wire tests are indeed devastating. All the same, I still tend to think that I can believe my ears in most of the cases. All the same, I shall plan some testin... | |
| Leaving components on I used to own an Oracle. I did the same, wasn't harmful on my case. AtB | |
| Attention Scientists, Engineers and Na-s Thanks, Jostler. very helpful. Shall check into this. | |
| Leaving components on Please be more specific: What turntable? AC-adapter?Is the platter spinning, when you leave the "adapter plugged in " ? | |
| BEST brand for Classical Recordings? Jorge, we audiophiles are few, we don't count on the big market, so the big record labels don't record according to our gospel and/or needs. They record for the needs of the mainstream. Now most low end, mid fi CD players sound rather forward and ... | |
| BEST brand for Classical Recordings? If you like classical music, I would seriously consider a vinyl frontend, because so far CD still falls behind the old technology in the renderings of big orchestral events in practically all parameters that are important for an audiophile and mus... | |
| Attention Scientists, Engineers and Na-s 702 ..I have a very basic and perhaps naive question: Would you maintain, that ALL highend cable manufacturers peddle in snake oil? If not, where would you draw the line, apart from basic considerations like resistance, capacitance etc? Would you ... | |
| Blind Listening Tests? 702 thanks for your clever and witty response. Nice to have you on board, though we often disagree. But that makes life interesting. |
