| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment It used to be that application for a patent had to be accompanied by a model of the invention. Somewhere in Washington DC there is a warehouse with thousands of interesting models. They changed the rule, and now models are not required with one or... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Dgarretson...There is a line somewhere between enthusiasm and madness. You and I may draw that line differently. I would humbly suggest that testing the limit of a turbo-charged BMW motorcycle is over the top, and it appears that you have come to ... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Rodman99999...As a Bose user you have to have a thick skin!! But I was surprised to find in the responses to my comments that quite a few audiophiles have Bose 901s in their past, and more than one thought they sounded good under the right circums... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Dgarretson...It is a known fact that if you wash and wax your light airplane you will typically gain 1 or 2 mph. But an airplane is very sensitive to aerodynamics. Squashed bugs on the wing leading edge break up the laminar airflow, and that incre... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Douglas_schroeder...FYI...I was urged by Sean, of fond memory, to try something other than zip cord for speaker wire. He loaned me some audiophile-approved wires to try out and I did a listening test. With two speakers side by side, one wired with... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Douglas_schroeder...Sorry about the "I don't think" phrase. I will try to remember to use "IMHO" which seems to be acceptable :-)If RainX costs only $2.99 I will try it. I can always use the stuff on my car. (Their washer fluid is excellent). But,... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment OK Guys...This whole thing is supposed to be fun. Don't get your nose out of joint.Rodman99999...The Bose issue is a perfect example of the "you won't believe it until you try it" arguement. I posted about the UNEXPECTED good sound from the hated ... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Douglas_schroeder...The way to make music subjectively louder is to add distortion! But I don't think your treatment does that either.My closing remark about UFOs was not arrogant, but just intended to poke a bit of fun, and get a rise out of the ... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Shadorne...I don't think that Tbg is talking about digital errors, which, as you described, are completely avoided by use of the RS error-correcting code. Anyone who claims that "bits ain't bits" is simply ignorant of digital technology. Tbg says ... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Tbg...If you "hear a difference between two digital copies that are identical" (to quote you) then your sense of hearing involves more than sonic vibration of the air. All I said it that for information in the digital domain, (before the D/A, ampl... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment The ear is arguably the best measurement device when what you are measuring is sound...say the output of a loudspeaker. However, when evaluating what goes on in the digital domain review of digital data streams (or files) is arguably perfect. A bi... | |
| Which Universal Remote to Use? Outstanding response from Oppo. I sent them an E-Mail.You download new software, and write it to a CD. Then you use the CD in the player. Instructions must be followed exactly, or you may mess up the player. I have not done it yet, but I did do so... | |
| Which Universal Remote to Use? Does anyone know of a universal remote that will work with Oppo players. The stock one is lousy. I need one with nice large and illuminated buttons. I found several at WalMart for little more than ten bucks, but Oppo was not among the dozens of br... | |
| Looking For Someone That Machines Knobs Schipo...Not a crazy idea at all. What is crazy is the wooden knobs I have seen offered as a high end tweek supposedly improving sound quality. | |
| otl vs push/pull Jallen...As I understand it, Atma-Sphere amps do not destroy speakers when a tube fails. That was a drawback of some other OTL amps. |
