| Mini dsp what's the deal Make sure you get the H/D version as it has digital input, always better to have this one. Don't put your mids and highs through it, as your own dac/cdp would have a better converter. But good for doing the bass and room correction, but you'll nee... | |
| Directionality of wire What a load of c**p this thread has becomes,.As you asked before, SHUT IT DOWN fsonicsmith, before it degrades anymore if that's possible.Cheers George | |
| Directionality of wire On Monday I am going to send a letter on my letterhead to the University of Virginia to check on your Linkdn claim of an aerospace degree from that institution and I will publish the results here. Best to you sir. For now. +1 fsonicsmith Got... | |
| Directionality of wire And, dude, what is your fascination with sheep? He maybe a New Zealander? They have a thing with sheep. Cheers George | |
| Directionality of wire And as I said in an earlier post, IMO the least implausible explanation I have seen is the one stated by Audioquest. .The first part Al regarding the shield only connected at one end and which end to dump the RF to ground, is plausible, but I agr... | |
| Directionality of wire Can anyone tell me if this is accurate and has it been debunked as of late? Yes and no, the only wire that was, was LC-OFC (Linear Crystal- Oxygen free Copper) developed by Hitachi and Audio Technica some 25 years ago. It was heated up to a point... | |
| Directionality of wire Sorry you feel that way. Not everything can be measured.I am done! 1: Every component you have has been designed using measurements.2: Any changes to the sound the designer needed to make was done using measurements then listened to.3: There i... | |
| Directionality of wire Geoff your at it again, not one shred of "Tech Talk" from you, just a lot of cosmic he said she said waffle, this is a "Tech Talk" forum how about presenting some.?Cheers George | |
| Schitt Freya or older pre instead rich3549 I do not think I can handle the Schiit’s quirks. There are many here that have the Freya from Schiit, can’t remember anyone else saying this, could be a one off. And you can send it back anyway if you don’t like it, or these "quirks" ... | |
| Schitt Freya or older pre instead rich3549 I’d go the Freya, because1: Gives you choice between passive, tube or solid state output.2: Has both single ended or balanced in and output.3: It has 64 position relay based volume control, one of the best there is.4: Has remote contro... | |
| Directionality of wire +1 AlGeoff, look at the heading for this thread, "Tech Talk" your not giving any what so ever.Cheers George | |
| Directionality of wire but the directionality that Geoff describes is opposite to the shield end, Then I would say it's been soldered the wrong way to the markings.Cheers George | |
| Directionality of wire jea48 George,So are you saying if the ICs, as you described above, are reversed end to end you can hear, should be able to hear, a difference? If you can hear a difference then you surely can measure it, correct? Depends how good you are at heari... | |
| Volume control question I see this a lot, and there are two ways it can be fixed. "bit stripping" happens below 70% of full output on a digital domain volume control. 1:This is why thoughtful/concerned source manufacturers like Wadia, Mark Levinson, Bricasti and a few ot... | |
| Directionality of wire don_c55711 posts07-30-2017 5:20amSingle ended interconnects are directional because they are grounded at the source end only, for lowest hum pickup and resulting low noise. +1 for Don, there’s a "technical" reason behind it, others are just makin... |
