A Tale Of Two. . . Anacondas Helix
Much appreciated Vin_wei. Have you had both the Argento and the Anaconda in the same position on your system, that is on the power distributor? 
ESOTERIC X-03 VS. AYRE C5XE
The only thing in common between the DV-50 and the X-03 is the brand. DV-50 is an older universal design, which does not even have the TEAC VRDS transport, but an apparently very average OEM transport. X-03 is essentially a scaled down X-01, inclu... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Having just checked my references, it is at this point unclear if the mutagenic gonadotropic effect of runaway digital jitter is at all limited to the acoustic domain, or if instead it is generated in the RF domain, and what its effective range ma... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
There is likely to be more raw jitter in a car stereo. On the other hand this is also likely to be cancelled by the extremely poor S/N ratio in the car. Furthermore, being the jitter signal in question in the acoustic domain, rather than in the RF... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Yes, according to a recent study by M. Borzatta and Aloysius Q. Schmaltzenstein Gavronsky, published in the last preprint of Lancet&Dunset, runaway digital jitter can in fact produced significant swelling of the prostate through the formation ... 
how can a line cord affect frequency response ?
Thank you so much Audiofeil and TVAD, I knew there just had to be a simple scientific explanation lurking somewhere!

". . . restrictedor unrestricted flow of electrons."What does this mean, and how is it measured?

Don't bother paul, MRT is just unleashing a bunch of mechanical froggies in the audiopond. He just enjoys the spectacle of the audiocarps frantically chasing after all those useless toys. (Chuckles!)

Thank you Eugene for your findings! 
EMM Labs vs. Esoteric X-01
Razen, thread discussing relative merits of old and new EMM series appear to have a dramatic propensity to suffer of 'sudden death syndrome'. Rather than sealing the fate of one more (THIS) thread with a discussion on the subject, I would invite y...

Point well taken Dpac996, I admit I have had fun enough for a spell. I will now go back to passive SONAR mode!

. . . and now blazingly-fast pop-psychologist--MRT volunteers unrequested mental health referral services at no-extra-charge to TVAD. Most magnanimous indeed for a Renaissance man of so exalted a stature! Oddly enough, after the awesomely creative...

"i'm a renaissance man. . ."Oh wow, and so humble to boot! 
CJ ACT 2 v. VTL 7.5 v. ARC Ref 3
Eugene, could you comment on the audible differences between Act 2 and Ref 3, and what where the key factors that made you decide in favor of Ref 3?
