| Snake oil came first. By a likely ~ +50k years n80Now, claiming that peach pit extract will cure stage 4 lung cancer, and whatever hi-fi scam fits that analogy, is not okay. Desperation and ignorance open the door to abuse.>>>>Now I’ve seen everything. Are you high? | |
| Snake oil came first. By a likely ~ +50k years cd318Even the late Peter W Belt never claimed his products were better, (how could they be?). He claimed he merely presented them as an alternative way to listen, at a cost. Nothing wrong with that, but for most of us here I guess, not much right ... | |
| Hi Fi Tuning fuses The incident under discussion happened long long ago in a galaxy far far away. Too long ago to matter. Let’s move on. Frankly, I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if it wasn’t even true. Somebody’s got a bee in his bonnet 🐝 No big deal. Besides, gent... | |
| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? On a competent system you can hear the space of the venue of the recording in terms of three dimensions and reverberant decay and echos, that sort of thing. Assuming it was recorded live in a good hall, like say Boston or Chicago or Vienna or Berl... | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need b4icub4icu OP239 posts12-11-2018 11:05amMr. geoffkait Directionality can explain nothing. There is nothing in electrical science to explain such a thing in cables. It exists only in audiophiles minds that were talked into it at the time they were ... | |
| Hi Fi Tuning fuses But did you blind test the cat food tuna? | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need Welcome back from your torpor, gluggy. | |
| Hi Fi Tuning fuses You’re not a good example. Yeah, like Chuck Audio Mart. 🤗 Audiophiles want tuna that tastes good, not tuna with good taste. 🐬 | |
| Hi Fi Tuning fuses If frogs had wings they wouldn’t bump their a-- so much. If Judge Judy was 6’ 2’ she could have been a big basketball star. Woulda, shoulda, coulda! Amplifier designers are generally about two paradigm shifts behind audiophiles. Fuses is a perfect... | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need What we have here is failure to communicate. This whole “misunderstanding” regarding advanced audio concepts like directionality, burn in and purity of metals can probably best be explained by quantum physics. You see, think of me as an electron i... | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need b4icu, maybe there’s a language or communication problem but I already explained it to you - the differences in sound between cables, ANY cables, even between cheap cables and very expensive cables, can be explained SOLELY by directionality. If yo... | |
| Hi Fi Tuning fuses Were they looking in the mirror? | |
| A very good ENGINEERING explanation of why analog can not be as good as digital.. Digital is like the fresh raw porterhouse steak in the movie The Fly that Jeff Goldblum teleported from one pod to the other. When the atoms of the steak were disassembled and then reassembled the porterhouse steak looked still like a real steak b... | |
| Hi Fi Tuning fuses One has to wonder when that strange incident with the HiFi Tuning fuse happened that RM constantly brings up on every audio website he can find. Was it 6 years ago? 8 years ago? 10 years ago? Is he obsessed. Are fancy fuses his White Whale? 🐋 Thar... | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need conradnash30 posts12-10-2018 3:35pm@geoffkait Regarding directionality, while I’m skeptical, I hope I’ve shown that I’m always willing to experiment and to find out for myself. If I’ve understood you correctly, all wire is directional and the diff... |
