| Skeptic or just plain hard headed Innocent question: what does the last post, though well written and informative have to do with the subject of burn in? | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Rolling Stones’ Some Girls, cassette, XDR Virgin Records. Classic Stones. Strange, but dynamic range, details and separation seems much better than CD or LP. Interesting. | |
| Why does my DAC sound so much better after upgrading digital SPDIF cable? mxkmxcv“And no, you don’t have to listen for days to begin to appreciate the difference, our recall ability is about 15sec to my knowledge, so if you can’t immediately hear a difference, than any difference you hear latter on is not real.”>>... | |
| A Short History of two favorite words.... For those of you who may be too young to remember that Stereophile’s Jim Austin, author of the recent snake oil article in the OP and snake hunter extraordinaire, published the infamous article in Stereophile condemning the Intelligent Chip, in ve... | |
| A Short History of two favorite words.... Other audiophiles are willing to give a listen to anything that seems remotely plausible: cables, vibration isolation devices, whatever. A handful are happy to suspend disbelief entirely and give a serious listen to colorful foils posted on walls,... | |
| Need a Record Brush. Got a recommendation? I don’t know. If it’s any consolation the anti static sleeves are apparently designed for Japanese mini LPs. As I already asked, what good is eliminating static charge on the CD prior to play if the static charge is placed there by playing It? Dit... | |
| Dylan I only saw him once, during his gospel period, must have been 80s, and was not impressed. Way too low key. I like his records a lot, though, for the most part, though not that much at the time, and all the action in the early days. He was already ... | |
| What’s wrong with Diana Krall? Diana Krall is a heavyweight? I did not know that. 😳 | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed Ah, I was referring to proving burn in doesn’t exist or is at least way over emphasized. | |
| Need a Record Brush. Got a recommendation? That’s actually an interesting question. The mystery is why would removing the static charge - if any - prior to playing the CD help, since spinning the plastic disc at high speed during play is what ostensibly places the static charge on the dis... | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed Wow!! That might possibly be the first time in recorded audio history that a negative of a proposition has been proven. | |
| Which SR Blue or black Fuse For each fuse the odds are 50% of putting it in the right way. The odds of putting more than one fuse in simultaneously the right way is less than 50%. With two fuses, one fuse should be evaluated first. When you decide which way is best, then eva... | |
| Which SR Blue or black Fuse 50%. It’s always 50% since the fuses are not marked for direction. That’s my final answer. | |
| Need a Record Brush. Got a recommendation? Static electric charge is an issue for CDs, LPs and cables. I doubt you will ever see dust on a CD unless you leave it out exposed for some time. | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed I’ve oft mentioned this on similar threads - that it would be exceedingly difficult to determine the sole effects of burn-in of cables or any other audio thing, speakers perhaps especially, since there are simply too many variables that affect the... |
