| Review: The Audiogon Discussion Forum itself 😉 @fuzztone Huh? Is that a statement about what you see as a problematic pattern with forum contributors? Or perhaps a passive-aggressive judgment about how you perceive my posts? Or am I misreading your intention with that comment? It seems pretty... | |
| Upstream Bottlenecks, Experience, Opinions, Meitner Dac @sns You've got a great conditioner, just as I suspected! Do you mind sharing which lps you use on the router? Separate, right? Also, you mentioned a few comments earlier in this discussion that you use a AQ Vodka from modem to router. Have you ... | |
| Isn't it really about quality of recording? Are people with severely impaired vision and no corrective eyewear enthused about visiting a fine art gallery? | |
| Upstream Bottlenecks, Experience, Opinions, Meitner Dac Hi @sns, I don’t think you mentioned any power conditioner for your streamer chain. You may already have it and just not mentioned it, but I think it’s worth mentioning here. I have my coaxial internet cable, modem, router, and switch (and TV) all... | |
| Paper cone drivers/natural materials How many people reading this have a paper based subwoofer cone and think they are exceptionally quick and musical? I know @bdp24 and I agree | |
| Adding a sub. - can i start with one? It's obvious to me who here is speaking from subjective experience and who is enamored with an abstract idea | |
| ABS: What Is The Trouble With Measurements. Subjective assessment is the highest form of discrimination and is highly dependent on the intrinsic capacity for acute and gifted discernment of the observer. | |
| Adding a sub. - can i start with one? Absolute BS. As long as you are using a subwoofer as a subwoofer and not a woofer, there will be no localization of bass instruments. None. @ozzy62 You may not be able to hear it with your sub in your room, but it’s not absolute BS. It depends ... | |
| Does a REL subwoofer make the speakers' job easier? @hilde45 Thanks for the note! It seems there is a lack of common knowledge on how phase adjustment is performed with a variable phase adjustment. Maybe I'll write one up on that too. If I were the type of person to give for-profit businesses the... | |
| Does a REL subwoofer make the speakers' job easier? +1 @hilde45 It continues to blow my mind that big sub manufacturers like Kef and Rel don’t even have a phase dial for exact phase matching. Only two opposite settings? It’s simply bizarre to me. Apparently there’s consensus out there there only ... | |
| Good Ethernet switch @alvin1118 For someone without much technical knowledge about power supply tech, can you share anything about the power supply on that LHY Audio 8-port switch you recommended? Any additional thoughts on why you recommend it? | |
| Synergistic Research Purple UEF Duplex - receptacle @stevebohnii I'd share, if I could. However, I recently did some work getting all of my cables elevated and mechanical vibration dampened and that made a significant difference in sound quality, particularly in the low and mid bass and in noise l... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Yosi Horikawa - Timbres [96/24, Qobuz] Not much of a musical track, but a very fun electronic listen to a smorgasbord of sounds, especially if your sound system is really dialed in. Has great potential to make you say to yourself "wow, my system ... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Willie and Lobo - Zambra (new flamenco / world) | |
| Zavfino @willywonka Yep, I use one. I have some other Zavfino stuff, so I’m familiar with the house sound, at least up to a certain price point. From what I can tell in my system, the sound of the USB cable is not really all that different from another ba... |
