| Why the cost increase? Damn... I just got back to this thread now and I see that there were several posts removed immediately after mine. God I would have loved to read them. I can only imagine. LOL. | |
| Why the cost increase? Videos of Republican poll watchers being kicked out of polling places.Videos of briefcases hidden under tables being taken out, opened and put through machines over and over.A certain candidate up by 700,000 votes and then when polling place is op... | |
| Any idea which headphones I’d like? @mastering92 Actually it was my watch but wearing it after my father's death made me think of being in the hospital with him for almost two months so I changed to the Hamilton after that.But thanks. | |
| Any idea which headphones I’d like? @mastering92 Excellent response! You definitely made your case. Thanks!I also love watches. I don't have many but those I do have, I enjoy.For 20 years an Omega Seamaster Professional has been my everyday beater.My father passed away last year an... | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? @thecarpathian Yes! Meant to type that while class D may not take over, it's getting better and better. Sorry, I misspoke. | |
| So how much do you think the placebo effect impacts our listening preferences? @sokogear You said, ..."I can't believe you guys are arguing if speakers are better than headphones. They are DIFFERENT and do different things.I don't know anyone who prefers headphones unless they either have no decent stereo or can't play music... | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? @b_limo I'm not sure that class D is going to "take over", as you say, but it's definitely getting better and better. | |

| Amp recommendations for Hifiman HE1000 V2 Absolutely loving my Pass Labs HPA-1 with my Arya and Silver Dragon cable.I know you were asking about the other headphones but I'm just giving my 2 cents. | |
| So how much do you think the placebo effect impacts our listening preferences? Like I said before, loudspeakers and headphones are different PRESENTATIONS.It's not a matter of some people like vanilla and some people like chocolate. The comparison is more of some people like ice cream and some people like brownies.The questi... | |
| Class D amps that are superior to all or most? Maybe on paper, George. However it's all about perception. It's all about how different people perceive sound differently. There is no universal best, regardless of schematic or measurement. | |
| Class D amps that are superior to all or most? Can someone answer this for me please, especially George...Since all amps have sonic defects and no amp is perfect, why can't people with class D amps just live with those defects inherent to that topology and people with class A amps live with cl... | |
| So how much do you think the placebo effect impacts our listening preferences? @mahgister ok. Good explanation. Thank you. | |
| So how much do you think the placebo effect impacts our listening preferences? @mahgister you make statements about your system regarding the placement and the presentation you get and how headphones cannot compare.
