| Snake oil and tweaks that work! toddverroneI have not yet done that.. Man, I always forget to mention that you also sell springs.>>>>>Actually, I’d prefer that you didn’t. | |
| Floyd-The Wall...which one? Out of curiosity I ordered the Doug Sax remaster of The Wall on Capitol 1994 and actually listened to it just yesterday. It’s very good. Is it the absolute best? I can’t say because I haven’t heard all the various imports, remasters, etc. Best dea... | |
| Which watts are the right watts in SS amps? @willemj, once the argument turns to name-calling I win by default. Better luck next time. 🍀 by the way, I think I see your problem. You think you’re the smartest guy in every room you walk into. | |
| Snake oil and tweaks that work! His mother is an engineer. | |
| Which watts are the right watts in SS amps? @willemj, thanks for illustrating that tube amplifiers are not graphic equalizers after all. Whew! That was a close one! Also, be advised that it’s an Old Wive’s Tale those iconic speakers cannot be driven with a high power amplifier. There are lo... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report The guy running for the Senate in Alabama? | |
| Annoying sounds from cars at stop light If this helps, the speed of sound in concrete is about 10 times the speed of sound in air. | |
| Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses? What’s sad is they, like you, are ignorant of fuses. Obviously. Obsessively circuit oriented. It doesn’t take a weather man to know which way the wind blows. Wake up and smell the coffee! ☕️ | |
| Which watts are the right watts in SS amps? Both of willemj’s favorite speakers - LS3 5a and Quad electrostatics - both of which I’ve owned and am very familiar with, sound much, much better with tube amps than with solid state. I thought everyone knew that. Geez, Louise! Just say NO to sol... | |
| Which watts are the right watts in SS amps? Yeah, right. | |
| Which watts are the right watts in SS amps? A graphic equalizer?! Cut me some slack, Jack. Is that your final answer? | |
| Which watts are the right watts in SS amps? Dynamic range overrides frequency response any day of the week. Besides unless you’re prepared to pony up lots of cash on room acoustics you will never get flat frequency response on any room. | |
| Snake oil and tweaks that work! For those of you using springs or spring based devices, or thinking of it, here’s a heads up! You can get better isolation, at least on paper, by mass loading the springs as much as possible. Springs can be loaded to the point where the coils almo... | |
| Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses? OK, let’s get this thread back on track, people. Which is why high end amp manufacturers don’t employ audiophile grade fuses in their amps. The obvious reason is they aren’t aware of aftermarket fuses or ANY issues with fuses, including wire direc... | |
| Cassette Tape I never said you were a Johnny come lately. But Heifetz’ violin on cassette played on an inexpensive Walkman cassette player sounds fuller, richer and more musical, more like Heiftetz’ Violin, as it were, than the very same piece on digital. More ... |
