Any piece of equipment you currently dream of ? @bipod72 For some reason, your description of your new space evoked in my mind the warm glow of tubes. | |
Any piece of equipment you currently dream of ? @bipod72 I love your description of your cabin retreat too. You need music in the shop :) | |
What is the science behind audiophile fuses? @mitch2 nice clean job. Looks great | |
"...and I don't take any advertiser money..." Don't forget that reviewers who post unflattering opinions often end up being harassed and threatened with legal action. For example, read about the dCS v. Goldensound train wreck. | |
LoFi Try working in a vacant unheated building with water dripping everywhere from the failed roof and I can assure you that a bluetooth tailgate speaker sounds pretty great :) | |
A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks Being buried alive is way up high on my list of ways that I do not want to die. And just reading the word "crawlspace" makes me of John Gacy. @immatthewj Have you watched The Vanishing? The original Dutch version Sorry for the off topic ever... | |
A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks @duckey there was a long thread on here about a low-cost cable brand called Preffair. Their power cables are in the $40-50 price range on Amazon. Folks seemed to think that they were well built, and that in certain cases they sounded as good as b... | |
A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks You probably understand what it’s like to work up there, crouched/kneeling/whatever on a plank that is sitting on a couple of ceiling joists or rafters or whatever one may call them, and all the other discomforts of working in an unfinished attic... | |
A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks in the article it was suggested to put the junction box as close to the outlet as possible. So what does that mean? Cut out the drywall so you can attach the work box to s stud next to the outlet you want to put in? @immatthewj Yes that’s what ... | |
What is the science behind audiophile fuses? @mitch2 I think the Grimm has an IR sensor so one could use a programmable remote. Alternatively you could control volume via roon if you use that. | |
The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. Low impedance is immaterial when speakers are paired with amplifiers that are right for them. Lots of folks out there under-power their speakers. Some speakers, especially vintage ones, will react to this indignity by either sounding like garbag... | |
A little puzzled by my newly acquired Yamaha A-S801 [...] Rotel that is now defunct and irreparable Few amps are ever irreparable! Better fix them than throw them away 🙂 | |
Movie/film suggestions. Spielberg is rightly being ignored here, but Duel felt like a pretty darn good movie at the time. | |
Movie/film suggestions. I watched Anora last night. Loved it. Mikey Madison deserves the Oscar. Also, excellent house / dance soundtrack that gave my 12" Velodyne some exercise :) | |
A not sarcastic question for the power conditioner/upgraded power cord folks One note, if you opt for 8 or 6 gauge and are forced to step down in the wall to 10 gauge to connect to your outlet, I believe code will require a junction box. It does, however it is more practical to terminate the large gauge wire at a small ... |
