| Used PS Audio BHK 300 monoblock or (2) new benchmark ahb2 bridged? PS Audio BHK 300s are really musical as well as the BHK Preamp, when I change any of these components my system it looses all its magic, the PS Audio components are noisy and it drives me crazy but no other amps or preamps make me so happy. The BH... | |
| Why Do Cables Matter? @hilde45 There are exceptions to the "can't add information" rule such as speakers. There are very few studios that use speakers over $50k there are good reasons for that but as far as audiophiles that commonly use speakers over 50k they may be ... | |
| Why Do Cables Matter? @yoyoyaya thanks for your response. #1 You can't add information to a recording. #2 Recording studios don't use very expensive interconnects and speaker cable. #3 Since #1 and #2 are true it is illogical to use cables that are more expensive th... | |
| Best Amplifier & Speakers combo? If you get powered speakers they will be a perfect match. | |
| Why Do Cables Matter? If you understand the principle that the original recording can't be made any better (you can't add information) to the signal then audiophiles should know that no recording studio uses boutique expensive cable. So cables that are more expensive t... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout @ghasley I hear you, no doubt that good people with great ears hear huge improvements with cables, I have drank the Kool Aid myself just in case I was wrong. Hey I have over 70 speakers in my house and 4 Dolby Atmos systems, 1 professional. its r... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout So just think of this, everyone agrees the signal isn’t going to get any better because of cables. So if the original studio or location sound recording doesn’t use these uber expensive cables of any sort (AC, interconnects, speaker) doesn’t that ... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout @thyname I understand, I love your audio system it seems you have some expensive cables, you must have some objective reason for buying them. Have a nice day. | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout @thyname Sorry you are making the wrong argument, you aren't keeping the signal the same as it is originally you are only at best keeping the signal the same at the level it enters your speakers there is a world of difference between original and ... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout @thyname Well argue your point then don't simply put me down, I don't care if it's technical or practical. The question is do cables make a sound system better. No one including the OP is saying that cables don't make a difference they must be up ... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout @steakster You say "cable-deniers" does that mean people who don't think cables will make a system sound better? I asked many cable manufactures at AXPONA what cables do for a sound system only 1 manufacture, Beldon, had an answer. Most of them sa... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout @thyname I really don't mean to pick on audiophiles and someone pointed out to me lately that I should be kinder, I agreed and I'll try. It's just that this group is full of intelligent people who have the same hobby as I do so I want to add the t... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout @jeffstrick Cables can’t fix anything, although years ago when a singer was to bright we used an old brown Electro Voice cable that didn’t pass high end very well and it fixed the problem, a little EQ with mic cables. Again cables only degrade the... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout @thyname To answer your question yes, bollocks everyone knows you can't have better sound quality than the original (I did recording for 35 years) audiophile cables especially are perhaps hundreds of times more expensive than professionals use in ... | |
| AES/EBU cable shootout From a professional perspective latency in digital circuits is by far more important than nano second timing differences created by cables. In modern systems used in professional recording you set latency based on buffer size. Last week we did sou... |
