| Hi-Fi Tunig Fuses & Parasound A21 No not shilling, just trying to keep things honest. You have yet to come up with any real explanations of why you firmly believe that mains fuses the magic cure and are immediately detected as being directional, and so can transform the sound of a... | |
| Class D Technology No I’ve never heard one. How does Class "D" compare to SS? I’m a tube guy who has not heard the very best SS ampsWe, most are all in agreement that Class D is great in the bass. To me where they differ mainly is in the upper mids and highs, some s... | |
| Hi-Fi Tunig Fuses & Parasound A21 There are none SO blind as those that will not SEE. There none so blinded with their own voodoo, that "they can’t see the forest through the trees". http://www.machinadynamica.com/Cheers George | |
| DAC specs versus sound quality potential You have that so right cedargrover That’s why I always state "well implemented" when ever I talk about differences.Most mainstream big or small dac makers copy the implementation straight of the DAC chip manufactures data sheet, usually in the las... | |
| DAC specs versus sound quality potential The differences between dac chips are hard to tell apart given the same topology and specs.But the differences in topology is another story when both are converting the same media.The different topologies are Multibit and Single Bit (Delta Sigma) ... | |
| Class D Technology The black background many listeners can hear with Class D indeed suggests the heavy filtering is in some way affecting the audible sound. Myself I would not describe it as a "black background".But rather a "harmonic black hole".Cheers George | |
| Need replacement woofers for my ProAc Response Twos I saw someone post that the woofer was made by Seas.Yes that was for the Proac Response D 2, a later speaker. https://homemedialimited.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/proac_responsed2-ebony.jpgCheers George | |
| Need replacement woofers for my ProAc Response Twos Her are the Theil and Small parameters of the driver, copy them and send them to OEM driver manufacturers and ask if they have something very close.Or go the original $750 ones from Proac, UPS should cover the cost if Millersound backs you.http://... | |
| Hi-Fi Tunig Fuses & Parasound A21 geoffkait you are just a voodoo’ist, as is most of the stuff on your website.http://www.machinadynamica.com/ Real techs above are trying to tell you something, in a nice way, just incase you have something wrong upstairs.Cheers George | |
| Sonus Faber Guarneri Recommendations / Help Extrema's rule, it about the only dynamic speaker I could live with if I didn't have the big ML ESL's.But the Extrema's didn't come alive till we put on a Krell KSA-250 up them. That Extrema Esotar T330 tweeter is gem also because of it's very h... | |
| DAC for CD transport +1 for the Schiit Multibit as it's not Delta Sigma, and it will get the best from pcm Redbook 16/44 or 24/96 if that's what you play??Cheers George | |
| DAC for CD transport If playing Redbook cd 16/44 or 24/96 is your priority, the only one you mention that will do it justice is the Audio gd NOS DAC-19 (Burr-Brown PCM1704UK) as it uses 2r2 Multibit d/a converters all the others you mention are Delta Sigma, not as goo... | |
| Amp upgrade for Thiel CS 3.7 The Theil's need an amp with current, solid state that can "almost" keep doubling it's wattage to 2ohmsEG: 8ohms-100w4ohms-200w2ohms-400wThis means a solid state amp that uses BJT (bi-polar) output transistors, Tube, Mosfet, and Class D need not a... | |
| Shopping for a preamp asp307Hi, I noticed that you want to keep your Rogue Cronus Magnum Integrated (that has high gain 12ax7 input tube), but you want an external preamp. No one bothered to check that your Cronus integrated only has pre outputs, but no poweramp inputs... | |
| Can you leave class D amps on and not ever turn them off? rvpiano OPGeorge,You mention NuForce 8 monoblocks as having gone up in smoke.Would you suspect the Nuforce 9's as having the same problem?Many use the same generic SMP boards from the same manufacturer just different rail volts, so it wouldn't su... |
