What is the science behind audiophile fuses?
If you have to ask about trying an audiophile fuse - And, depend upon what others say? ...don't bother. If you can trust your ears?  Then decide.        
Riddle me this....
The effect can happen to an extent if your speakers are phase coherent. Ever turn binoculars around and see how things now seem more distant than the usual close up? Reversing polarity of both speakers has that kind of effect.  But, its more li... 
Best DACs under $7,000.00
I was forced by AT&T in finding the best DAC I ever heard.    I have a Schiit Yggy.  AT&T mandated that I stop using their DSL, and installed Fiber.   The Fiber quieted things down .. apparently the copper running the DSL and the DSL mo... 
Does dose anyone see these speakers in real?
Selling mine .... Moving into small apartment and they sound too big. Asking 3,000,000.  Will negotiate. Still under transferable warranty. PM me.  
Those who seek to deny access to information
Some people are cruel....   They collect the pains of hurting others like another may find pleasure in collecting butterflies.  They come here to disrupt when they can.  Its not complex.  We have sadists that live in the world.  They torment when ... 
McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer
What he failed to see because he looks too young? When hi-fi was beginning McIntosh stomped the competition with sound and look. It is now become a tradition, like Cadillac used to be seen as the best car on the road.   And... the MC 275 is stil... 
why do so many discussions turn contentious?
"just venting....why do so many discussion posts need to turn contenious and nasty?"Because Adam and Eve would not listen and ate from the tree of "my audio system sucks and yours must too." But, then on the other side of that same tree they ate o... 
Two new Schiit Yggdrasil's released yesterday!
Unless you are a technician its not advised doing the More for Less upgrade yourself. For there is a needed firmware update for the DSD board that does not get changed otherwise. You would have be able to do the firmware update. Here is what Tom a...

Using 2 different brands of interconnects?
If you have yet to learn what you are specifically looking for?  (that can take years).. Enjoy.  Its like using two different coffee beans when grinding to make coffee.  
Is D for Dry? Class D...
I have owned a Mac MC275 and a Mac C20.  Both refurbished. Nice, transparent and warm...  Years later I discovered a NuPrime ST-10.  It matched the warmth and transparency in its own way, but controls the bass near perfect. The tubes can not match... 
Does a Tube Dac make sense?
A Tube DAC softens the sound. A sound that would not need to be softened if the DAC was able to avoid certain digital distortions. Tubes are a band aid.... 
New turntable: TW or Obama?
Any TT that is just under $20,000?   It should be beyond reproach.  To say otherwise is a disgrace. Anyone needing advice on such a TT should not be buying such a thing if he can really hear and can actually enjoy what he hears.  Otherwise... he i... 
My NAD 3020 D proves your Class D tropes are wrong
Class D?   I have heard PS Audio's Class D amp.   Sounded very good with better detail I have heard with tubes or class AB.  This one sounds even better!https://www.hifi-advice.com/blog/review/analog-reviews/amplifier-reviews/nuprime-st-10-power-a... 
Pimping your router
About a month and a half ago AT&T dropped DSL and mandated that I switch to their fiber. I had been putting it off for over a year. Then they said, "no more." Fiber, or nothing. Well.. I decided to go with it. But had not been keen on the idea...
