| The Audio Critic The arguments you make are what are referred to as Strawman Arguments, I.e., logical fallacies. For example, if a person can hear the differences in cable or the directionality of wire and someone else can't, the explanation is very simple - there... | |
| Db Power Amp - is there a better ripper out there? Mapman, are you playing with me? That's not what I'm referring to and I have a sneaking suspicion you know that. Lol | |
| Comparing Audioquest cable to Morrow Well, One big advantage of earphones and headphones over big 100 lb audiophile grade speakers is the total lack of room interference with the sound. This elimination of room anomalies results in better tonality and more resolution. You can't just ... | |
| Db Power Amp - is there a better ripper out there? Everybody who treats the CD and the ripper before ripping the CD raise your hands. | |
| The Audio Critic A man of absolute integrity? That may be true. But don't you think the issue is whether he was correct or not, not whether he had integrity or not? There are tons of tweakaphobes and science to the rescue vigilantes who don't have integrity, so wh... | |

| You know you're an audiophile if-- You know you're an audiophile if it takes more than half an hour to treat a CD. | |
| Recommendations for a mat for the PS Audio PWT I use it for mosquito deterrent. But seriously, folks, EOM is very efficacious. I haven't done an A/B comparison but my gut is that it's as good as Liquid Resolution which, sadly, is no longer available. And Liquid Res is very very good. | |
| Higher resolution Jazz The first RCA Living Stereo was 1954 if memory serves. Actually, '54 through 1960 was what we refer to as the Golden Age of classical music. | |
| Help with System Musicality As with any audio tweak or device it's probably best to throw out the negative results since they are outliers. As long as the trend is that most folks hear something then I'm pretty much on board. The trend is your friend. | |
| Gold Fuses: Whats the fuss? Mapman wrote,"Fuss? What fuss?"Good one. "And you know something's happening but you don't know what it is, do you, Mr. jones?" - Old audiophile expression;-) |
