| Pleasurably better, not measurably better @pinotnoir Absolutely! I have a 27 page/20 1312 comment response forum on Audio Science Review = "The better the measurement, the better the sound" philosophy and an additional rebuttal forum (current) which debunks the absolutists who claim that ... | |
| GR Research Power Cables @agisthos +1 | |
| Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why? As a beta tester for GroverHuffman cables, we have tried half a dozen Furutech A/C & IEC plugs over several decades. We found that the more expensive ends tended to be brighter sounder with higher resolution and the lower end plugs maintain m... | |

| Room correction room system vs ears…. @kota1 My room is treated much like yours, no spacers on multiple side wall absorption panels, very thick carpet and couch. The ceiling absorption panels are chain suspended about 6". I'm still looking for that 2019 video of my finished empty ro... | |
| Pleasurably better, not measurably better I haven't tested my system for it's distortion, although I suggest it is low (the speakers have very low distortion (under .4% at 35 Hz). However, I am astonished at the differences in sonic texture of different recordings with close miked jazz m... | |
| Pleasurably better, not measurably better @holmz The list provides the room info. There's really nothing to see but the cherry plywood walls and surface treatment (can't see the HFTs). I'll try to find the Acoustic Fields video and post my room as finished. | |
| Room correction room system vs ears…. In my custom listening room, I have built in bass traps. I end with a live room, treated on walls, ceilings and floors with absorptive materials. Trying the same on front and rear walls decimated the dynamics and high frequencies. I chose to us... | |
| Pleasurably better, not measurably better @westcoastaudiophile Absolutely, even with my custom listening room, there's the couch/seating, the equipment racks and equipment, speakers themselves and CDs in a corner. (If someone is curious concerning my custom room, check out my profile eq... | |
| Grounding Question My friend had used a cheater plug for a decade on his RAM-9 amp. I told him to remove it and also replaced a very old cheap power outlet (I gave him a Black Synergistic Research plug). The difference in his system is phenomenal. Never use a che... | |
| Pleasurably better, not measurably better Kenjit comments represents Audio Science Review philosophy. I just ended a 27 page, 2100+ comment forum here concerning this very subject. Unfortunately, the owner and some followers of that site came here to lambast our knowledge and opinions w... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts It could be just the SPDIF as the streaming section sounds okay (only checked with iPhone USB connection). There are two SPDIF inputs and one lacks bass response with an even leaner sound compared to the other. Design or implementation flaw some... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts @westcoastaudiophile My COS Engineering D1v $9K DAC is built like the DAC you prefer, exceptionally well. https://6moons.com/audioreviews2/cos/3.html (innards) However, it lacks body in the midrange compared to the D2v, my modded Benchmark and ... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts My friend who "re-engineered" parts (analog section) and upgraded & added so many caps, regulators and resistors to the Benchmank and Emotiva DACs said the DAC chip were fine but that some are better than others. He also suggested changing/up... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts Well, I don't use DSP/Eq of the room but one can view my elaborate room construction and treatments to prepare it for whatever equipment I chose to use. It works for me. |
