| I've Just Learned What Amplfier Bias Is... Amplifier bias is when it only plays Genesis with Peter Gabriel well, but refuses to play Genesis with Phil Collins at all. | |
| Multi-room streamer (alternative to Sonos) I've just started with a Roon ecosystem and so far so good. | |
| There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think Kenjit I don't know what I like most about your posts, the personally insulting tone or the flat earth perspective you have on science and engineering. Best,Erik | |
| Digital Assistance Required Quite possibly!! | |
| The Modern DAC killed High Resolution Music - has Stereophile proven it? How do you know the DACs you’ve heard just aren’t very good at high resolution? That would be a lot of DACs. . | |
| Wide baffle speakers are better than narrow So you’re saying that the crossover doesn’t matter? Never said anything like that, and I’m more than a little surprised you could see such a statement in my original post. That the crossover can’t be tweaked to make a speaker sound good regardle... | |
| There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think Hi @adameos Is there truth to the notion that a smaller bass driver (6.5” - 10” etc.) will be quicker sounding / more resolving than 15” drivers? No, but that’s what we are touching on here. Less bass = low risk. I’ve heard many biG horn / compr... | |

I was thinking of something that I think has helped this discussion: I used a DIY speaker as my... | |

But why do we assume this has to do with the resolution of the files instead of the performance of the DAC? For decades audiophiles were told that high resolution data s... | |
| YAMAHA A S-3000 INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER REVIEW Nice review.I have to say that while I haven't heard the Yammies, I own a Luxman and the quality of the tone controls vs. a lot of previous products is outstanding. I can't hear them at all when in neutral, and they do what they do without any dow... | |
| need advice on speakers Check to see if Parts Connection or Music Direct is having a sale on Wharferdale or Monitor Audio. :) | |
| What have you found to be a good classic Jazz online station? All the Jazz stations I listen to play a variety, but here is my list:Jazzcast.caKCSMJazz.FM | |
| Wide baffle speakers are better than narrow Well I said "at least" but what I'm really thinking of are models mentioned above, which are probably wider. | |
| Digital Assistance Required I think you may be confused. This music was released in at least 3 different formats. CD’s do 44.1kHz at 16 bits. HDCD hides an extra 4 bits. The stream is still 44.1/16. However! The DVD set is 96kHz/24 and yes, you can feed your average DAC thi... | |
| Wide baffle speakers are better than narrow In your definition, how wide (In inches) is wide? Lets say with a baffle at least about 4x the width of the tweeter, including faceplate. |
