| Why are audiophiles perceived as being wackos? Cwlondon, are you saying that most so-called audiophiles are not like all of those wonderful Rolex watch lovers et al. and therefore that is why they are called Wackos? | |
| Why are audiophiles perceived as being wackos? No Albert, Eldartford is not wrong about "cryo"'s value in high end audio and it is only your opinion that he is wrong.Stating that NASCAR uses a certain tecnology does not validate that technology any more than if BOSE embraced monster wire and t... | |
| Why are audiophiles perceived as being wackos? Still, Joe Gibbs Racing doesn't build the ultimate racing motor any more than Bose makes the ultimate speakers. Using NASCAR as validation of techniques used in making "ultimate engines" is not very convincing. Maybe if BMW used "cyro" techniques ... | |
| Tchaikovsky symphony 5 favorite recording Stokowski, on London with the New Philharmonic orchestra. On London 4-phase, but the performance! | |
| Why are audiophiles perceived as being wackos? So now NASCAR, the "Bose" of car racing, is used as the standard for engineering of race cars and motors! Frankly, Albert Porter, I thought that you would at least use F1 racing as a standard. If there were any advantages to "cyro" of spark plugs ... | |
| Phonostage Burn-in to keep unit sharp Eldartford, just don't play the Requeim - that will kill the transistors! | |
| Phonostage Burn-in to keep unit sharp Strange that silver, while being a better conductor than copper takes longer to break in! Silver has more latent inner emotions, I guess and that it why it takes more time to release them. | |
| why spikes under speakers??? Eldartford, nice summary! 1st law - can't win. Conservation of energy and mass or zero sum or a tie.2nd law - entropy can only increase, therefore no "break-even". No comment on drainage systems, sewers not being my expertise!Salut, Bob P. | |
| why spikes under speakers??? TWL, without disputing the benefits of spikes, whether it be for isolating or "draining" and I do believe that there are benefits in using spikes, I must take you to task for mis-using the 2nd law of thermodynamics as the explanation for the "vibr... | |
| VA vs. Watts? How much power do I need? Power cond Actually you don't multiple the VA by 2 to get Watts consumed, but divide the VA by the sine of the phase angle difference, which can be around 0.98 in typical systems. A .5 value would be really extreme. BTW, the household meter for power consump... | |
| VA vs. Watts? How much power do I need? Power cond Not into a reactive or capacitive load, only into a purely resistive load, does VA=watts. | |
| Room Acoustics Problem???? Use the balance control, you might be surprised! Any added distortion, if you can hear it, surely is less than the "distortion" that you are experiencing now.With your unbalanced room/speaker placement, there will always be some unsatisfactory ele... | |
| wow and flutter Seandtaylor, then maybe the correct answer is the stock answer used by 'sophisticated" listeners/audiophiles - "if it sounds OK then ignore the test results". Specifications and performance numbers are useless, aren't they. | |
| Why "Cryo" anything? Lugnut, I bench test using my ears or is it I listen by bench testing, but ultimately I bench test using my eyes - I have to look at the results. Also, remember the expression "the hand is quicker than the eye". It is easy to fool the eyes, after ... | |
| Why "Cryo" anything? Cello, the best test of hypothesis' is when the candidates do not know that they are under test and in the case of audiophiles, it is best to NOT use "sophisticated" listeners. Note that I said that the candidates are under test, not the device, f... |
