Thiel Owners @nkonor and prof, I tried and tried as well. But, in my own case, I came to the opposite conclusion - good, "killer" subs and and 2-way standmounts just might be the Only way to solve that problem...at least if you ask me. But, what I found was th... | |
Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil @teo, Thanks, great stuff! | |
Pass Labs Geoff, you are by no means wrong on that, sir. I was not trying to re-fight the Civil War so much as point out the bias that can be found among the victors...whatever the war. | |
Pass Labs @onhwy61, "that is because "History" is written by the winners." (as jmcgrogan2 correctly noted).Everyone remembers the 2 most important battles of the Revolutionary War: Yorktown and Saratoga....which is fine except there were actually 4:Yorktown... | |
Too Many Forums asking about how to improve ones system, etc. I suppose as an 'experienced' audiophile (and one who does not "guess" at what audio descriptors mean), I'd say that the biggest impediment to improving one's system is not the lack of good advice, there is plenty of it in these pages, nor is it a... | |

How old is too old for a Dac? I’d say by the time you're 90 you’re too old for a DAC. | |
All Things Must Pass I have not heard any of the latest vinyl for All Things as I began phasing out my vinyl and went digital in the 80’s, but I clearly can recall the vinyl pressing I had back in the day as just plain awful - certainly by comparison to the remastered... | |
One of the coolest articles on sound and vibration I can recall having read No, not really..Robinson is my real name and it was just the first play on my name that came into my head, actually. Nosnibor sounded vaguely Russian to me, and my first name is John, so Ivan it became. | |
One of the coolest articles on sound and vibration I can recall having read @toddverrone I’m fairly aware of the pitfalls of numerology and that, in this case, a minute could’ve been ordered certainly in a number of ways (but of course it wasn’t, antiquity settled on one, certainly), but I’m not at this point privy to the... | |
One of the coolest articles on sound and vibration I can recall having read It seems whenever on those occasions I happen to find myself trying to examine some ancient historical context, what comes back at me time and again is just how much the ancients may indeed have been aware of (on their own I mean, without the help... | |
Is it too bright or is it high resolution? Over the decades, I’ve come to be of the opinion in general that detail is not really at all related to brightness - except in systems plagued with either electrical noise or (as previously noted by others here) certain types of distortions, or bo... | |
Alan Maher Designs Will do, for sure. You will likely have the Tri-Wave before I, so it might be a case of you posting for my sake first, lol. | |
Do I need a power conditioner? Agreed, I believe Alan Maher has some legit products for the health end of the market, too (for those who are EMI/RFI sensitive), but is finding it hopelessly full of snake oil and will have to be pulling out of that soon. | |
Do I need a power conditioner? @leotis,I’d like to caution you about circuit amperage, unused circuits in your circuit breaker box and the act of turning off lots of appliances when you listen (longterm). Be aware that a properly designed circuit leg from the breaker box will h... |
