| why do so many discussions turn contentious? You always get the technically informed members who feels it's their duty not to let the "snake oil, voodoo" products run unchecked on these forums, that are making a fortune for their shyster manufacturers, that never come on here to protect thei... | |
| Deciding if I like Class D. My measurements confirm it.Here it is once again snapshot taken directly from the Icepower 1200as2 PDFClearly states that the "red trace" is the "phase shift" measurement of the amp from 20hz to 20khz! And the blue trace is rising output impedance... | |
| Deciding if I like Class D. I was not addressing you at all Eric, I’m sure you think your knowitall, but far from itThe real OP knowitall in a PM he sent me, when he started this thread, asked for my opinion, so I gave it to him. As for you Eric, usually you want to start so... | |

You want 75ohm 1.5mt (no less), I found industry top of the line 75ohm Belden Digital cable has been the best for me, with quality BNC connectors or rca done your... | |
| Quantum Science Audio Thread @cerberus79I rarely post anything here. I did so this time because I had direct experience on the topic and reported it in a factual and non judgmental fashion. My reward was to be called a lier by one member and told I was in the wrong hobby ... | |
| Quantum Science Audio Thread cerberus79A few months ago I purchased a used pair of speakers from another Agon member.To my surprise all the fuses were Orange fuses. I listened to them and then to satisfy my curiosity I replaced them with ordinary buss fuses and could not hear... | |
| Experience with good d/s DACs “comparable@ to R2R? riccitone OP @georgehifi I’ve been looking at Soekris dacs as well! Some typical r2r controversy on those via forums, but those that actually own them say resoundingly positives things. "but those that actually own them say resoundingly positives... | |
| Deciding if I like Class D. I’m wondering if perhaps that negates the issue you describe with the phase shift ? Honestly, I’m not sure how that would shake out.No, because that phase shift starts at 1khz all the way out to 20khz, with increasing distortion. https://ibb.co/3S... | |
| Quantum Science Audio Thread Having owned many unfused speakers I am totally unconvinced by their necessity in the signal chain. Are you serious!! where have you been, this statement proves you have absolutely no idea.99.9% of good passive speakers are not fused for a reaso... | |
| why do so many discussions turn contentious? you are not our saviour. I am trying to be yours, as you obviously believe in 10cent $200 fuses and that they can be directional in an AC main path🙏. | |

| Deciding if I like Class D. knowitall OPIf that’s the case George, then why does the op amps make such a significant difference, and in a positive way? All input buffer opamps on the input of Class-D’s have their own sounds. The Hypex NC500 monoblocks (same as Belcanto Refe... | |
| why do so many discussions turn contentious? It's one thing to stick up to get the honest truth against some of the "snake oil" products here and to warn against them, but to start just slinging s**t at each other for no reason🤦♂️ . | |
| Stereophiles 2021 Recommended Components is now on line. Just to add to the Audio measurement institutions above that I mentioned, is this an extremely thorough one call "Miller Audio Research" (AVTech tab) That do them for HiFi News and HiFi Choice and a few othershttp://www.milleraudioresearch.com/avt... |
