While I haven’t purchased anything from Robert in many years, I simply love their products and even posted a link to a white paper on their site just yesterday.Perhaps Robert is ill. Please keep us posted.I wish I could attach pictures of the var... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? While I like the OP’s ideas, personally when looking for differences in a component or set up, I like to concentrate on not on a whole song, but often on a particular instrument. I find it much easier to remember the sound of a wood block, or pian... | |
| $27,500 for whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat??? I would love to hear these speakers, even with the standard “crappy” paint, somewhere on the east coast. I still remember decades ago hearing Dave Wilson himself demoing the original WAMM at sound by singer. Since several people mentioned car pain... | |
| Is Velodyne gone? Just to update this thread, as of November 22, 2019 Velodyne has been purchased by Audio Reference in Germany. You can read a little about it and the year long negotiation on the site https://www.velodyneacoustics.comSo it appears Velodyne will b... | |
| The midi range, not the tweeter, is the most important driver in a speaker. The big differences in the TAD line of speakers is the midrange.The reference series uses the vapor deposited beryllium midrange, whereas all the other series use the magnesium midrange.The beryllium tweeters and aramid cone woofers seem to be ver... | |
| Network Switches So I’ve had the EtherRegen in my system for over a day now. I run an Ethernet cable directly from my Mac Pro tower running Jriver to a Directstream dac with bridge2. My point is that I’m not going through a switch. There is switch and the rest of ... | |
| New York Audio Show 2019 I was at the show but somehow missed the Singer rooms. One I tried to go in was locked. I wanted to hear the Stenheim speakers as I’ve heard one their speakers sound good.I think the Vinnie Rossi room sounded great- not necessarily because of the ... | |
| Brave man, McGowan... As a big PS audio fan, when it came for a modern power conditioner, I went for the Niagara 7000. I had a power plant premier years ago and found that a passive Acoustic Revive RPT-6 ultimate sounded better. That was 2 generations of power plant... | |
| Network Switches Steve, the guy that designed the etherRegen has designed many of the chips used in standard switches, so I think his credentials and experience far outweigh any here or the doubters who claim these things don’t matter. Also ethernet is not just fo... | |
| Network Switches To the people that believe an isolated switch cannot reap sonic benefits, I wonder why they are on an audiophile hobby site In the first place? The entire purpose here is to optimize one’s musical experience, be it with component upgrades, setup o... | |
| Dedicated Power Line Project Jea- thank you for the detailed explanation. | |
| Network Switches I have the EtherRegen on order from UpTone. I’ll be in the first batch delivered, and can comment hopefully in a few weeks. | |
| Dedicated Power Line Project I want to do a single run of 10 gauge from my breaker and instead of terminating in an outlet, i’d like it to be a 20 amp IEC I can plug directly into my Niagara power conditioner.i know this may not be up to code. Any thoughts? This would elimina... | |
| Why HiFi manufacturers don't make active crossovers anymore? I think the ideal way to do active would be using the built in DSP and crossover function built into server software like JRiver.It would require multiple or multi channel DAC, but it seems the least destructive method since no additional DA or AD... | |
| Has anyone finally decided to sell their Turntable and Vinyl collection? I have been toying with the idea of selling my 2500 LP collection to help fund a comedy feature film I’m doing. I don’t play LPs as much as the digital front end, (PS Audio DS) but when I do I feel I’d regret selling the collection. There is just ... |
