| Interconnect Directionality Wrong again, buddy boy. The electrons are only charge carriers. They are not (rpt not) the signal, the charge, I.e., current, itself. The charge itself is actually comprised of photons. That’s why the signal travels at near light-speed. The electr... | |
| Interconnect Directionality How do you know the twisted pair are identical with respect to directionality? They could be opposite from each other. Ditto the strands of stranded cables. 😩 | |
| Turntable feedback Don’t hit it with a hammer while music is playing. - old audiophile axiom | |
| Turntable feedback Eggs ackley! Granite rings is an old wives tale. Ditto bluestone, they especially won’t ring when they’re 2 or 3 inches thick. Hel-loo! Even better - use granite or bluestone as slabs on springs. Then the slabs are isolated. Problem solved! 🤗 | |
| Interconnect Directionality sleepwalker65The flow of electrons for an audio signal is in both directions Geoff, from one terminal of the source to the other on the positive half cycle, then in the opposite direction for the negative half cycle. If you could optimize electron... | |
| Impact of phase inversion by preamp Uh, I see one on your list new for $102. Hey, that rhymes! 🤗 | |
| Interconnect Directionality If the two interconnect cables are symmetrical there is no way find the correct directions for both ICs other than by listening to all 4 combinations. But - as I opined in my previous post - the “good direction” for both cables is toward the amp. ... | |
| Impact of phase inversion by preamp The Wood Effect was published in 1988, after the advent of the CD. | |
| Impact of phase inversion by preamp OK, you made me do it. The whole story according to the Polarity Pundit. Metaphors be with you!http://www.audiogeorge.com/the-polarity-list/ | |
| Interconnect Directionality Exactly! There are two wires involved in AC, + and - for each channel. When the signal goes toward the speaker on one wire, the signal (current and voltage) travels in the opposite direction on the other wire and vise versa. So both + and - wires/... | |
| Anyone tried the Tweek Geek's Dark Matter Technologies Qubes? Whoa! What? Another name infringement. | |

| Can you over damp with isolation products? If so - How do you know you've done it? Whether it’s viscoelastic materials, cork, graphite composites, crystals, specialized tapes or mass loading, they all have downsides, some more than others, usually by reflecting energy back into the system. It’s what the excellent Japanese audiop... | |
| Can you over damp with isolation products? If so - How do you know you've done it? No, not with isolation devices. You can over-damp with some damping devices or materials but real isolation devices, I.e., mass on spring devices function one-way only as mechanical diodes 🔜. They do two things at once - isolate the component or s... | |
| What is the forum code word for "listen to this stoned". I'd like to use it on these two: Drink enough Guinness Stout and you will see god. |
