| Rare find Blowtorch Audio Preamp I was in CES 2001 with Curl and Crump and the Blowtorch and their Bar B Q amp. I isolated the Blowtorch on my sub Hertz Nimbus platform. š¤ The next year Curl debuted his JC-1s, scaled down Bar B Qs, at CES; I isolated four count em JC-1s on Promet... | |
| Barometric pressure, temperature, moon phase? Perception IS reality. Our sensory perceptions are precisely how we observe reality. The word perception can sometimes be used as a psychological term, but itās actually not. Itās the same thing as hearing. Thereās no difference. Be it sight, soun... | |

| System synergies: Chaotic or predictable? Itās essentially a subjective hobby. We use ānon technicalā terms because itās helpful in understanding and conveying the characteristics of sound. Terms like holographic image, glare, air, sweetness, articulation, slam, grainy, clean, open, pop. ... | |

| Best Record Cleaning Fluid I was always intrigued with the idea of using liquid wood glue for cleaning vinyl though I never tried it. | |
| The Physics of Electricity Steve, you must have missed my post. There are many errors in the first article. My original post was,Geoffkait: āWhoa! Somebody flunked electricity big time!. The audio signal is not the music waveform and electrons donāt travel through the cable... | |
| Barometric pressure, temperature, moon phase? The sound is influenced by external physical factors such as weather š§ barometric pressure and sunspot activity š, radio frequency activity, vibration, etc. that affect the power grid and electronic equipment, cables and house wiring.

| The Physics of Electricity if I were PS Audio I wouldnāt have posted the error-fraught Belden engineer article on his website. Maybe he didnāt know any better. Maybe he assumed it was accurate since it was an engineer from a wire company and was trying to give credibility t... | |
| The Physics of Electricity Uh, PS Audio is an amplifier and cable manufacturer, right? āA good primer except for the errors.ā So funny! š¤ | |
| The Physics of Electricity Whoa! Somebody flunked electricity big time!. The audio signal is not the music waveform and electrons donāt travel through the cable. And magnetism is produced by current moving through wire, not by electrons. The B field is the induced magnetic ... | |
| I wonder why...... No matter what high end power cord the manufacturer provided audiophiles would complain and replace it with a different high end power cord. The smart thing to do would be to not (rpt not) include any power cord and knock a few bucks off the price. |
