Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic
k4rstar, yes, you will want to speak with the manufacturer in order to see if they are comfortable with the implementation of Schroeder Method. When I was conducting the Border Patrol DAC review Gary Dews was not comfortable with implementing the ... 
A DIY Swarm-based Distributed Bass Array for SOTA Bass
Also, revisit music that you thought was just awful in terms of distortion; you may find humbly that much of what you thought was in the recording was in fact incapacity of the system to reproduce the music faithfully. So much music that is disdai... 
A DIY Swarm-based Distributed Bass Array for SOTA Bass
millercarbon, it's all good! I understand your enthusiasm when you say, "Well if you've heard more precise than this then color me jealous. Because the bass I'm getting is a whole lot more precise, clean, articulate, whatever you want to call it, ... 
A Ghost in the System? Music Thru Speakers with Preamp Disconnected
This can only be Phantom Doppler Effect. You are moving so quickly that the sound is only catching up after you disconnected...  
Vindication at Last!
I rate that article a zero!  ;)  
What in your mind represents real technological advancement.
You don't need to change the speaker. Use my Schroeder Method of Interconnect Placement and hear for the first time what a speaker can sound like if the link hasn't been screwed up by an industry using a poor link (single IC) for decades. See the ... 
A DIY Swarm-based Distributed Bass Array for SOTA Bass
millercarbon, congratulations on being an explorer! Sounds like you are discovering a new world of enjoyment - isn't that what the hobby is all about?  :) There is no way to get the same precision with an array of subs, but there also is no replac... 
Quad ESL 63 In Another League Now
A little story to add some perspective on this thread...Several years ago Kent was invited to my home. Why? He and I had a disagreement over at the Asylum (I no longer participate due to what I considered virulent disdain of women) on whether an E... 
***GROUP PARTICIPATION***SYSTEM CRITIC & COMPARE***
Imo, lousy recording, and sibilance is an artifact of recording. Harmonica on next track is intolerable. :( 
Doncha get bummed?
As System Builder the more superior a system is, the more that will be retrieved from the source. If you wish to have less of the extraneous noise, then you are wishing for a poorer sound quality. Imo that’s not very desirable. When my system is s...

divertitit, it worked extremely well for me when using a DAC with the Redgum Audio Articulata Integrated Amplifier (reviewed for Dagogo.com). Please note that at this time it is still considered a "do at your own risk activity, and if you have con... 
Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic
I do not yet have enough brands/examples of RCA or XLR assembled models to do that, but I believe it will happen in due time. I would want no less than four representatives from different companies. Once I knock out a couple reviews I may focus on...

grannyring, it is pretty amazing, isn't it? It's hard for me to think of anything in cable-related system building that has brought this kind of impact over the past 30 years. I have used dozens of sets of cables, have built hundreds of rigs, and ... 
Dynamics and resolution...
bgpoppab, I have continuing good news for you! Since the article was published there have been several noted setups using active preamp to power amps! I have used some of them, for instance the Belles ARIA Preamp using Schroeder Method ICs to Bell... 
Dynamics and resolution...
bgpoppab, yes, that was my article at Dagogo.com and you should not give up on the option. The solution is simple; rather than use splitters, which are bulkier, go to a good Y-cable, as that will fit in the space allotted for the RCA outs. Referen...
