The best speaker cables you’ve had
Beldon wire and cable make great Teflon silver plated wire. I had 100’ 18awg 3 conductors with a silver plated shield. You connect the shield a receive ground end and double up wires on the 18 grounds. Do Not connect the shield at both ends proved... 
considering a Burson Headphone amplifier DAC has someone listen to it
I just look for folks that have listen to a Burson Headphone amp. I believe the 9038 dac have been well received as good depending on the implementations. It have MUSES 72320 to control the volume!! with remote control.  
Anthem MRX 720 Question
I have an 1120 Anthem and the software is poor no comparison to my Integra. One of the amp has failed and it no longer switches correctly.  The sound is ok cause I use my PASS LABS for the two out side speakers. As for the Audio return channel tha... 
Most Extensive State-of-the-Art DAC Survey Ever!
There a fact to these DAC's no matter how much you spend they can only get so good. Yea there are a lot of details that make one sound good. However the bag is open on the that people that design them all know the same stuff. Ground, Timing, Data ... 
Amp Internal Wire
You know that the path on circuit board are copper not silver and performance does not suffer. Special case is to make board it self of Teflon but that really because temperature. So wiring everything with silver is not necessarily but Teflon insu... 
Krell anticipator circuits of the 1990s
So the Bias slides up, big deal and down. Krell would have done time domain tests to determine if there spurs appear off the fundamental.  Something like this would not be done by a field but an engineer. We would do this in the digitally domain f... 
Krell anticipator circuits of the 1990s
If it changed the bias in few milliseconds you will not know the difference. However can the power demand keep up, will it compress the dynamics in the outputs. The main reason for doing this is to save money in the power supply and lowering the w... 
Krell anticipator circuits of the 1990s
It depends on multiple elements in the design. The Bias point the amp runs at at idle. The speed of the output stage ( slew rate ) How long long do you hold the amp stage at a class A bias before returning to idle. There are multiple way to incre... 
looking for a more efficient speaker.....
speaker have compliance and the compliance in nonlinear there is resistance to motion is the surround and at low levels it restricts the cone.  A issue with older horn spreader that I know  has changed to these efficient speaker now is the quality... 
looking for a more efficient speaker.....
Speakers are like car motors, the start working there best when they start making power and speakers work better when they hit 90db are louder. Most high sensitivity speakers give up a performance at low levels and the bass performance is not grea... 
Analog vs. digital
Haven’t used my turn table i years. I just want to hear music and not have fiddle with records. It’s not that important that the music can sound a little better is I can listen and relax. It’s all about the music and not the front to back depth or... 
The Future of Hifi is just being Discovered
 I had read that cryogenic treating certain metals improve there conductivity but you correct does not make them a superconductor.   
The Future of Hifi is just being Discovered
Facts are super conductivity is real, cryogenic treating metal is real. Magnets are treated for maglevs to create super conductivity high energy fields. It is proven to have an affect on magnetics and electricity is part of the electromagnetic spe... 
Thoughts on the Linn LP12 turntable
The Lynn LP12 is flimsy cheaply implemented table that’s Rates as midfi gear. Compared to the class A standards is laughable. It’s no better than an old AR table.    
Holo MAY KTE DAC/ Kitsune Hi FI, Lynnwood Washington
 Great product the implementation and hardware layout excellent and the sound great too. My good has one, I listen to it for hours, it’s a great product and sound great.
