| The Intellectual People Podcast - Galen Gareis (Former Belden Wire Designer) Were you more informed, you would know that those who would listen to Galen would most likely not be very impressed by Ted's work. Oh give me a break. Writing for a 2nd rate online magazine makes you informed? Those who understand cables, I mean ... | |
| Major Contradiction, Can you replace foam surrounds with Rubber Surrounds on Speakers ??? On big woofers at low frequencies, like in the Watt Puppy, the surround does not appreciably impact the cone movement. Push them to a higher frequency and they will, ditto for mid-woofs at higher frequencies, and mids across most of their frequenc... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? For sure pitch is not reducible to frequencies .... But It is what you affirm to me erroneously in one of your post ...Pitch is by definition reducible to frequencies. Pitch is a definition. That does not mean we can't fool the brain, or distort ... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? Then why BÉKÉSY feel the urge to denounciate this reduction exactly 50 years ago ?He did not even denounce Ohm, he said it was always obvious Ohm was not the be all and end all. Seebeck showed that 170 years ago. Bekesy was not "denouncing" , he w... | |
| Off to see the Wizard...the wonderful Wizard of Oz That air is usually called distortion, and with no distortion (how long is your arm), probably pretty high distortion in the right channel. | |
| Major Contradiction, Can you replace foam surrounds with Rubber Surrounds on Speakers ??? If I remember, the woofers on the Watt Puppy's cross over at quite a low frequency (pretty much subs). Changing to rubber is likely to have pretty minimal impact on the performance because of the function of the surround at those frequencies. Keep... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? The ear, again, is a bunch of receptor behind band-pass filters effectively. That is the sensor. That says nothing about the processing behind it, whether there is crosstalk, etc.Békésy claim that the ear dont function like a fourrier analyser at ... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! A more apt analog would be to have two 911's, one blue and one green, and to be claiming the green one is better. The 911 of today is nothing like one from the 60's other than roughly looking the same, and is it the greatest performance car ever?... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Speaker Cables Please watch closely. The squiggles shown exactly match the transmission time of the signal through the wire, demonstrating conclusively exactly what I said, ringing as the signal bounces back and forth due to the impedance mismatch. https://www.y... | |
| The Intellectual People Podcast - Galen Gareis (Former Belden Wire Designer) When someone comes onto a thread and does nothing but casually toss out irrelevant personal slights while bringing nothing to the conversation, you gotta wonder what they are compensating for? Do people over 18 still use hashtags?thyname1,207 post... | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Interconnects - Less is More! I have some of the Bridgeport ones that I linked and have DIYed some over the years. I was doing some scrounging and found a partially unwound Alpha Core yesterday. I would not expect much difference between the F1 and the Bridgeport (price aside)... | |
| Speakers The single most critical component That comes out to 132lbs sir, @ $249/lb, that will be $32,868 + tax. | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? Mahgister, at some point will you communicate the magical connection between direction of a wire and also how the ear works? Nothing that Bekesy or anyone else you mentioned has one iota of relevance to the discussion. You have wrapped up a red ... | |
| Tidal MQA Hollowness Considering that I don't know you, and I know nothing about you, I couldn't possibly say anything bad about you character, your lineage, your necktie, or your personal hygiene -- you know, AD HOMINEM stuff.From what I can tell, that does not stop ... | |
| Discrete R2R Ladder dac from Soekris, Absolute Sounds review. Soren Kristensen is held in very high regard as a digital designer.This is essentially false advertising. You seem to take offence to anything related to snake oil, well this is a snake oil statement. It is at best your personal opinion. If this ... |
