| Dedicated line: 10 gauge solid core or 8 gauge stranded @gs5556, that sounds pretty intriguing and I don't recall coming across anything like that before (i.e. the usual electrical supply houses). What is the name of that item and where did you find it?Thanks,John | |
| Dedicated line: 10 gauge solid core or 8 gauge stranded 10 gauge solid core, solid copper is what you want A) because it’s likely the max code where you are, check and then double check in your area to be sure and B) stranded will likely give more audio problems as it ages. There are times when the boo... | |
| High Performance Audio - The End? If you find that your system, as you increase its quality, makes that kind of music sound worse to you, then the idea that increased resolution of the system is responsible for that is seemingly the only logical conclusion. I get it. I don't doubt... | |
| Has Radicalizing the Rig Led to Revolutionized Listening? I’m 60, and indeed for a few years there as my system-building phase neared completion about 5 years ago, I too shifted more and more toward the acoustic. But, about a year ago, I sorta rediscovered my rock roots all over again (this time with the... | |
| High Performance Audio - The End? @jjss49 I think I might buy all that. However nicely presented or laid out at corporate level it looks, by the time you get down to street level it's generally more of ceaseless knife fight, everybody looking for their advantage. But, that's capit... | |
| High Performance Audio - The End? Coming to expect (pursue) "high resolution" first above other considerations, only to discover that it reveals other flaws in the system has nothing to do with the high end and, in and of itself, can only represent intermediate levels of system bu... | |
| "Bridge Over Trouble Water" sounds artificial ...exactly. The same recording on different systems can have a different impact on a listener as to it’s inherent quality. Is there really no such thing as ’relative recording quality’...I don’t actually know. I just know that as a group, we audio... | |

| Sam here and this goes much deeper than i ever thought. Ok, but if you insist on having minds blown by it, then consider this:Wifi is a way of sending power (watts) over a given distance through the air, right? And this power is transmitted in the form of microwaves. Let’s look at a hypothetical. Let’s... | |
| Sam here and this goes much deeper than i ever thought. @uberwaltz, ......we're all in for it, aren't we! | |
| "Bridge Over Trouble Water" sounds artificial Would also like to add: remember that exactly where, and in what order, your recordings will ultimately land is overwhelmingly determined by the quality of your setup.For the longest time, I believe it was J Gordon Holt, who went around proclaimin... | |
| "Bridge Over Trouble Water" sounds artificial @aeshcwartz I'd say, it has nothing to do with the recordings. Your result is just reflective of the current (true) state of your playback system in your room...even if the upgrade results, in some way, in an apparent step backward or down in list... | |
| Sam here and this goes much deeper than i ever thought. A Farady cage just wouldn't work in any case, sure it blocks noise from outside the room (or house, if you're so determined), but it traps those nasties that originate from within the room, and keeps them inside the room itself. Most of the time ... | |
| Sam here and this goes much deeper than i ever thought. @ Sam, your conclusions may be a little premature, but you’re essentially on the right track. And there actually are "dangerous" amounts of EMR, 5G, WIFI and other things in the ordinary home. In a sense it’s actually worse and more involved than ... | |
| Oldest Recordings that sound “audiophile” @cd318, Thanks for your post and the history info. I’d have to agree with you, those 3 years were maybe the most crucial for rapid changes in audio - some bridges crossed and some others burned, if you will. I enjoyed your synopsis, I like learnin... |
