| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @kota1 unless AXPONA changes my mind I'm going to get the HiFi Rise to go with my new PS Audio DAC mk2. I've never bought a piece of audio equipment of any kind because of a salesmen. Can't wait to see how my system stacks up to the ones at AX... | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @grislybutter LOL I've had a few very nice conversations with 911 owners that will follow me into a grocery store and comment on my car. Great people who love performance and great design. | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @mijostyn Perfect then, what is the objective formula to choose an amplifier that will work in getting the most potential out of a speaker? You call me insecure, nope I have nothing to prove to anyone. Let's hear it. | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @grislybutter That's exactly what I'm saying, no one would buy a Lamborghini without knowing how the engine worked in the car, audiophiles buy the engine after they buy the car and cross their fingers how it will drive. I have a very nice sports c... | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @dedobot Music is emotional but can you think of any other hobby that so much money is spent on guesses. At least in gambling you might get a payoff. Manufactured are simply taking advantage of audiophiles, could be that the super cheep audio eq... | |
| What is the most challenging music to play on a stereo? It's just like movies, you'll never learn anything about movies by watching the best movies ever made you'll learn a lot about movies by watching bad ones. Listen to poorly recorded music distortion that couldn't be fixed see if the speaker reprod... | |
| Thanks to Paul McGowan I have all of PS Audio's BHK line and their top other components (except speakers) I listen to other systems and am really surprised how good mine sounds. I think the components are noisy but not after the music starts, it is a very upsetting trut... | |
| Is soundstage DEPTH a myth? Depth can happen on a boom box no problem, it has nothing to do with the sound system it has to do with the way the music was recorded. I've done thousands. 2 mics over the conductors head will give lots of depth. Why do audiophiles assume that mu... | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @kota1 Ill check out those guys at Axpona if there is anyone else you want info from I’d be happy to ask them for you. | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @invalid concerts today are done with very sophisticated equipment Mr. Carver had no idea would come. Top equipment is now digital and networked, speakers are powered and designed for specific sections of the crowd with DSP on every speaker. The v... | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. Buying the biggest amp you can afford is like saying you should buy the biggest engine you can afford for driving. Some engines are huge and do a great job with low end power like tractors and earth movers, other engines do well at going fast, lik... | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @ghdprentice Love your story and it seems the perfect answer to what's natural. I recorded actors for a living and I would say natural sound is eating lunch with Anthony Hopkins and then recording him on set and having it sound the same. It never ... | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @kenjit As for the sound quality, this is not something which can be matched other than using trial and error because nobody knows why amplifiers and speakers sound the way they do. That's what I'm talking about. The only way to get the most out... | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @kota1 Oh no the last thing I would want to do is be condescending to this group, I was serious, I was simply pointing out that it’s often impossible to objectively point out variables in an audiophile sound system as opposed to a professional sou... | |
| Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused. @audiotroy Say we were doing a computer app designed to pair audio equipment, what parameters would we enter when entering info for cables? This of course is only an audiophile variable practically no professional recording engineer uses designer ... |
