| Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl? kross_emoji, if the air in the room had any motion your hair (assuming you have any hair) would be blowing in the wind. Besides the speed of sound at Standard temperature pressure is calculated for STILL air, not moving air. If the air is moving t... | |
| Speakers: Isolation? toddverroneGeoff - what’s the formula for Fr? You posted it ages ago and I never wrote it down..Fr = 1/(2 pi) X square root (k/m), where k is total spring rate and m is total massFor those who don't like equations use a stop watch to time the osci... | |
| Speakers: Isolation? @don1, I will try to type slower for you next time. | |
| Does a new cd transport require break-in time? Shadorne, you’re a little slower than usual today. I just told you the 200 hours is what Oppo was declaring 4 years ago. I'll ask you again, are so gullible that you believe their electronics have no break in? No need to respond, it’s a rhetorical... | |
| Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl? 😡kross_emoji@geoffkait Geeze, Mr. Magic Rocks! Can’t seem to forget the physics of air, can you? Sorry, but that’s a completely valid and required component in the calculation of mass and sound moving though it. It’s funny how you ridicule me for ... | |
| Does a new cd transport require break-in time? Shadorne, obviously you’re following the wrong sheep. Do you actually believe that Oppo statement? Give me a break. Boy are you gullible! When I bought my Oppo 102 4 years ago they claimed 200 hours. Claiming no break in at all seems dubious at be... | |
| Does a new cd transport require break-in time? Are you talking to yourself again? | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Between the Buttons CD, DSD remastered. Unreal! | |
| Do you listen mainly to Audiophile CDs and records? Now that I think about it I actually tend to avoid audiophile CDs and recordings like the plague. The only exception would probably be for testing purposes. | |
| Does a new cd transport require break-in time? willemjGlad you are not in charge of quality control for critical components. You had better stay with your innocous magical boxes. Huh? Nobody in the high end who has any credibility uses blind testing. Except maybe to attract people that actuall... | |
| Does a new cd transport require break-in time? cleedsgeoffkait... The dreaded Double Blind Test raises its ugly head! 👹 The threat of double blind testing has done a great deal of harm to the hobby by preventing progress and suppressing innovation and creativity. Double Blind Testing is the ... | |
| Does a new cd transport require break-in time? Audio memory is a debatable subject IMHO. I don't believe for a second that most experienced audiophiles do not (rpt not) have excellent audio memory. I know I do. I do think that tracking the sound over long periods of time is made rather difficu... | |
| Does a new cd transport require break-in time? Oh, please! Give me a break. Even Oppo, one of the largest manufacturers, recommends 200 hours of break in. | |
| RCA Caps Like the Cardas Caps they don't having to be shorting type caps to be effective. Cardas type caps are simple covers for unused input and output plugs. They should be placed over ALL input and output plugs for max benefit. Copper foil can be used i... | |
| Speakers: Isolation? I generally like the whole idea of double stacking. Whether it’s double stacking with cones and plates or double stacking with a combination of springs and roller bearings or even stacking springs or stacking roller bearings. But one thing to keep... |
