| Michael Fremer's system Feng shui is really nothing more than Information Fields with fancy Chinese words. Sound Quality is a function of Entropy. I.e., the less “clutter” (e.g., books, record albums and CDs) the better the sound. | |
| why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable The Amazing Randi offered Michael Fremer $1 Million dollars if he could tell the difference between $20,000 high end cables and Monster Cable. The negotiations bogged down when The Amazing Randi and his team of intrepid pseudo skeptics became a li... | |
| Why is the snake oil topic closed? Did the floodgates just open for the knuckledraggers to come into the discussion? 😳 | |
| Why is the snake oil topic closed? Whitestix wrote,” Yet if you, for example, choose to purchase one or a dozen of GK’s tweaks and find them to enhance to a considerable degree your listening pleasure, then by all means do so and don’t give a thought to the snake oil deniers. But d... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? Well, if you wish to open the thread up to comparisons, why not compare cassettes to CDs? That is the most ironic comparison of them all. You know, why an apparently low tech medium, a medium that was dumped twenty years ago, a medium they don’t e... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? Fair enough. But that’s not what your OP was all about. A cassette is a mini reel? Interesting. | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? @orpheus10 That’s all well and good but in the OP he says he is copying vinyl onto cassette. So we can eliminate reel to reel from the debate. Fair enough? The OP question is a general one, is there something about audio cassette that would make ... | |
| Best Footers for DAC? Someone hasn’t been paying attention. The reason blind tests don’t mean anything WHEN THE RESULTS ARE NEGATIVE is because negative results can result from mistakes by the test conductor, mistakes in the system used for the test, and other reasons.... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? Unfortunately that is not the question, which one is better. It’s why vinyl copied on tape sounds better than the original vinyl. It is possibly related to the question, why do CDs copied to CD-ROM sound better than the original? | |
| Best Footers for DAC? That’s part of the whole blind test scam. Nobody can pass a blind test 10 times in a row. Give me a break! That’s the beauty of it. That’s why The Amazing Randi never had to pay out a million dollars for any test, ever, not even the blind tests of... | |
| Michael Fremer's system Does he have the new Continuum Obsideon turntable? Or the older one. | |
| Best Footers for DAC? Hey, let’s ask NASA. 🚀 | |
| Cartridges: Complete Scam? Ouch! Very ouch! | |
| Why does my system now have shrill top end. Fascinating how the circuit focused group analyzes the problem as an amplifier issue and dismisses all other possibilities pretty much out of hand, and rather forcefully. A microcosm of how audiophiles tend to think? | |
| Has anyone made the jump to $uper High end and were disappointed? It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy that the more one spends on audio the better the sound quality. The audio industry is like the car industry. The price of cars keeps going up. It’s an economic reality - businesses must continually EXPAND in custome... |
