| Importance of clocking Everything upstream of a streamer is what we call asynchronous. The timing is always rather loose as an Internet based connection does not have guaranteed latency or inter-packet arrival time. Attempting to add picosecond clocking to those events ... | |
| Surge protector @lanx0003 1 - There are EMI/RFI filters, and wave shaping filters. The first aren’t doing anything below 100 kHz and are in parallel, the latter aren’t doing anything below 3 kHz, which is well above the 50 or 60Hz line frequency. I really do... | |
| Surge protector OP: I’m sorry to ask, but any chance you could get a plug in AC tester like this one from Kaiweets or this one from Klein? Something is very wonky. Test your outlet and test the resulting V at the Furman as well. Of course, if you have a multim... | |
| In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers @Audiom ...hah, funny coincidence | |
| In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers @audiom3 - If the delta is exactly 6 dB I strongly suspect you were missing a channel. | |
| What if a high end speaker measures really badly? @andy2 - That’s kind of a weird graph, I think the bass response is incorrect, it’s way too flat to be real. On another note, I’m afraid I’m going to have to disagree with you. The two times I’ve heard those speakers I was completely unable to li... | |
| Meter for measuring cable capacitance Just so you know, capacitance is only measured across 2 different conductors, unlike R and L. | |
| Where to place my two channel in new room? Check out the AM Acoustics room mode simulator. | |
| Surge protector I should point out that blackouts are potential causes of surges, both when the power gets disconnected and when the power is restored. As a child in Atlanta we lost many appliances when power came back on. https://www.forbes.com/home-impro... | |
| Surge protector I will say that so far in my life I have NEVER experienced any type of surge activity that damaged any of my components, and once upon a time I never even used to unplug my gear during thunderstorm activity--I was happily oblivious. @jea48 I ... | |
| ifi LAN iSilencer Hi again, @davetheoilguy - My recommendations for LAN isolation instead of surge protection is from this article. As I understand it, the author argues that LAN surge protectors encourage surge voltages to find a path to ground through them, whic... | |
| ifi LAN iSilencer Hi @davetheoilguy I wonder if we are talking about two different things? There’s a surge protector on the equipment that goes through the power cord, which I have no issue with, and there are LAN surge protectors (which I think are iffy) and LAN... | |
| Surge protector @12many True. OTOH, Wirecutter is literally the only time I’ve seen actual surge testing done by a third party. Every other review I’ve seen for surge protectors is basically just reading the online specs. If you do happen to find actual surge t... | |
| It's a Long-shot: Meridian G02 conversion to balanced tape out OP: The biggest advantage is reduced noise, which is fine, especially if it's a long run. | |
| It's a Long-shot: Meridian G02 conversion to balanced tape out The outputs are rated at 1.5V / 400 Ohms, I think they'll be OK. :) |
