What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
Shovels are a necessity on cable threads.

What the crap does this mean??? After some more time, I was faced with a very incredible fact – it turned out that when you performing TAS tests the probes are not needed at all – you could just turn on the music, turn the part around in your hand...

What a load of nonsense. https://www.backtomusic.ru/audio-engineering/theory/vectors 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
What I hear is a bunch of nuts on a Russian website running in Vector circles of confusion.The term “Direction” or “Directivity” originated among audiophiles and music lovers in the 1970s. It was then that people first started talking about the fa... 
Dedicated AC line - Contractor wants to use BX instead of romex
I live in one of those God forsaken red states and we're up to the most recent NEC. 
Does a Tube Dac make sense?
Every DAC has one signature sound No they don't. If a DACs noise and distortion is so low it's beyond human audible threshold it's considered transparent. I've heard quite a few DACs over the years and when sight was removed from the equation I co... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
Timbre is simply part of the audio signal. You haven’t figured anything out other than misinterpreting what I said. You confuse the signal and if it can be measured with computer software being able to decipher the signal. Where voice recognition ... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
There's a huge difference between writing a computer program that can recognize timbre like a human and measuring what humans can hear. I haven't seen anyone say science can describe what anyone or everyone "hears" when they listen to music only t... 
Dedicated AC line - Contractor wants to use BX instead of romex
If you're in a converted industrial building or similar it might be code. It might also be the contractor has run into that problem in your area. If possible it would make no difference if your special wire was run in flexible  conduit if the cont...

Ask him how much extra to run your 10/2 in FMC (flexible conduit).  
Does a Tube Dac make sense?
In properly designed DACs there is no audible inherent distortion profile.  
Does a Tube Dac make sense?
The question was, do tube dacs make sense, not can I buy a dac with a tube to distort the sound to my liking. The whole engineering concept of a DAC is to convert the digital to analog as precise without distortion as possible. From that perspecti... 
Does a Tube Dac make sense?
No, tube DACs make no sense at all but buy whatever you want. 
sensitivity question
It's getting a little better. Look for measurements using the klippel NFS. I believe Stereophile is going to start using one.

It pays to keep an open mind, just not so open your brains fall out. Sagan
