| Silver plated copper This just in! When the surface of a copper wire oxidizes over time the thin oxidation layer seals and protects the rest of the copper wire from further oxidation. Thus, while the effective diameter of the wire is reduced a hair, therefore resistan... | |
| Leather finish I have no skin in this game. | |
| How much difference does an anti-vibration audio rack make I built a magnetic levitation stand twenty five years ago. It’s the same idea used in the Verdier turntable to “float” the heavy platter. And similar to the air bearing platters and air bearing tonearms. The general issue with mag lev is that the ... | |
| Which area of components to spend the most $ on? Boy I was wrong all my life! Definition of an expert. Someone who used to be a drip under pressure. 😛 | |
| Silver plated copper Explanation: it was installed in the wrong direction. 😬 | |
| Silver plated copper There is the theory that much of the audio signal - I.e., the electromagnetic wave - travels outside the conductor which, if true, could explain why the skin effect is audible at audio frequencies. | |
| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? By the way, to clarify, I’m not suggesting that room treatment is not very important. But in order to actually get the best results, care must be taken to optimize whatever room treatments one decides to employ. Whether it’s acoustic panels, or ti... | |
| How much difference does an anti-vibration audio rack make Ironically perhaps and certainly counterintuitively solid rigid racks are not really good for the sound, especially if one assumes that solid rigid racks provide any isolation against footfall and other seismic vibration. On the other hand real is... | |
| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? Things are never what they seem. Let’s take SONEX for example, the common grey nicely articulated acoustic foam panels oft found covering the walls of recording studios and frequently used by audiophiles. Newsflash! The problem with SONEX is that ... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound Codes are for sissies. I violated two codes already today and it’s not even 10 o’clock. 😀Besides, why would removing the shielding help the sound? Maybe you need a little more coffee this morning. 😳 | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound Things are a whole lot worse than you guys think. Simply removing or even just opening the steel door of the breaker box improves the sound considerable for any system, whether it be high-end, low-end or in-betweener. No jumping up and down and ra... | |
| Aftermarket Fuses xtinct11 posts01-18-2019 6:23amHello guys,from my experience, simply cleaning the fuses contact points and the plus with acetone can reap very noticeable improvements. Treble becomes more airy and bass more defined and visceral. Therefore I am in ... | |
| The invention of measurements and perception kosst_amojan@geoffkaitYou’re the guy who’s always trying to inject quantum mechanics into everything. And then you pin it all on me or other people to make ridiculous strawmen to crucify. Are you the guy for whom your last quote was written? I hon... | |
| Silver plated copper That link was about as clear as mud. No offense to you personally. | |
| Leather finish I messed up. I thought you meant on the listener. |
