| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? .As a senior engineer, with a lowly BME degree, I at some times had scientists (Physics PHD) working for me. I think that there are clear differences between Engineers and Scientists.There is a saying that "There comes a time in every project to s... | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Pabelson... "The problem isn't what scientists don't know. It's what audiophiles don't know about science".Well said! That boils down thousands of words into the essence of truth. | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Mootsdude...You picked a bad example with fire walking. Science has provided the explanation. White ash on the coals is a good insulator if you keep walking fast. | |
| Searching for power amps with low damping factor. Why not just put a resistor in series with the speaker. Not much power would be "wasted" for a big reduction of damping factor. | |
| Searching for power amps with low damping factor. Elberoth2...4000 is what they say. | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Audioari1,,,There is nothing wrong with the measurements on the $200 JVC receiver. What is wrong is the assumption that its low distortion (for example) is what people want. The SET amp has loads of distortion, but some people like the sound of di... | |

| Behringer DEQ2496 HELP Warnerwh...I read it. Will there be a test? | |
| How can I learn how to fix equipment Most kits today are designed to give you an easy-to-build quality product. Heathkits were primarily designed to teach you how the thing worked, and most of them were not of the highest level of performance. But that's how I learned about circuits,... | |
| Vinyl lovers--in case you haven't tried this yet Zaikesman...Use the SS amp. Feed it the Left and Right stereo signals from the preamp. Connect a speaker from one red amp terminal to the other one. This "bridges the amp. You don't need any special bridging switch on the amp. What you will hear i... | |
| How can I learn how to fix equipment Too bad that Heathkit went out of business. | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? .An audiophile named WellfedIs trying to get in my headHe says that this clockMakes a Bose really rockBut I think I'l do cryo instead. | |
| Vinyl lovers--in case you haven't tried this yet .Zaikesman...Another thought. Playing a Mono LP without engaging the MONO switch on the preamp is foolish. Here is a little experiment for you. Bridge your power amps with a speaker. (You may want to disconnect the regular speakers to avoid too lo... | |
| nad s300 , 200 watts 4 ohms? .In general gain can be high or low regardless of whether connections are balanced or unbalanced. It depends on design of the equipment. If you have a particular piece of equipment that has provision for either balanced or unbalanced connections i... | |
| Vinyl lovers--in case you haven't tried this yet Zaikesman....1..When playing a mono recording a different stylus may be better...not the large diameter one for old 78s but perhaps not line contact either.2..Really old mono cartriges did have low compliance for vertical modulation, and we were w... |
