High Efficiency System- Noise Floor Reality Check?
Douglas, using your solution 'reading while listening', could also be applied to all perceived 'problems' with audio systems, especially those nasty sounding cables and PCs. Still, I don't know how you can listen AND read at the same time, if you ... 
In-Depth Explanation of the Audio Term "Synergy"
What most are describing is 'Complementary' not synergy. One component complements the other by making up for its partner's weakness or characteristics with its own weakness or characteristic.Synergy is when the whole is greater than the sum of th... 
Do Physicists Or Musicians Design Better Speakers?
Onhwy61, for example, Borodin, great composer and eminent chemist (contributed to the periodical table of elements, I believe). On the other hand you haven't heard me play the French Horn. Good engineer-fair horn player, which proves your point, I... 
8 Vs 4 ohms
Eldartford, must be my dyslexia! Of course the voltage is twice as high on the 8 ohms as the 4 ohms taps, I reversed voltages with current to speakers or power or something in my mind! My comments about power transfer to unmatched speakers to taps... 
HELP NEED UPGRADE ADVICE
Nice system. What's the problem? Follow the sound for upgrade. Usually improvement is in getting better recordings! Spend your money there and get to listen to 'live' music events. 
Headphone playback with ultra linear response
Greeni, there are no ultra linear headphones. The response of headphones is purposely tailored to give a 'pleasant' sound in the ear, due to the amount or lack of coupling of the headphone to the outer ear. Each manufacturer 'tailors' the sound to... 
What is under your TT, cheap islolation?
Look into suspending the turntable from the ceiling. That solves footfall problems and is effectively better than the 'self on the wall solution'.Bob P. 
power cords
Is this the same 'common sense' when most people think that heavier objects fall faster than lighter ones? Or that AC flows in only one direction and therefore the wire to the negative should be of different material than the positive?Bob P. 
THE LATEST---Gold plated fuses?
Why are manufacturers using such lousy fuses? It seems to be a no-brainer to install these gold plated fuses and advertise it and sell the amp for another 1000$.Bob P. 
power cords
Metro04, give it up! You will never convince those who have 'heard the difference', when 'seeing is NOT believing'. 
Nakamichi 420 specs?
I have the Nak 620, which probablyt has the same sensitivity at 1V in 10K ohms, for 100watts output. The 420 was rated at 50watts, I believe.Bob P. 
8 Vs 4 ohms
Cford, The voltage at the 8 ohm tap is the same as at the 4 ohm tap, but the transfer of power to the speaker will be lower depending on the speaker inpedence. You are confusing the power consumption of the speaker depending on its impedence. The ... 
Digitally recorded lps?
Onhwy61, I would add to the vinyl process, the playback system adding more of the distortions you have noted. Also, there is nothing subtle about the compression effects on vinyl. It is true that in the beginning of digital recordings to vinyl, th... 
Accurate vs Musical
songwriter, of course the musician playing eighth notes while the others are playing quarters will be heard, since he is playing twice as many notes in the same time! Has nothing to do with phase or timing! 
Accurate vs Musical
Accurate includes musical IF music there is. Musical does not include accuracy, however, and 'imposes' music when there isn't any to be had.I prefer to make up my own mind about whether there is music there or not and not have some other person's ...
