| Room color opinions jmcgrogan2 ..I really would love to see pics of your music room with the black paint. Sounds very interesting. Well, unfortunately, it does not photograph very well, since all of my equipment is black too, including speakers and turntable. | |
| Room color opinions Everything sounds better in the dark! +1, that’s why I painted my listening room and ceiling black, it makes it even darker!Now sound emanates from the blackest of backgrounds. ;^) | |
| Why do many discussions about sonic performance disintegrate into technical discusions? Tastes Great!!Less Filling!!Well I can see that this thread is moving along nicely, well done!Carry on! | |
| Why do many discussions about sonic performance disintegrate into technical discusions? I think that audiotroy is talking about two separate topics here:1) Threads that go off the rail, off topic what the OP is asking about.2) Whether technical jargon should be discussed in the forums.Forgive me if I misread you, as I'm not exactly s... | |
| I need some advise on a shipping disaster. Vince, I would make arrangements with the seller to pick up the one speaker that you have, return it to him, and get a full refund.This should not be your headache, as you did not employ UPS as the shipping agent. This problem lies directly betwee... | |

| Tom Petty autopsy released Maybe not so "accidental" after all, considering all the pain he was in Jerry.I wonder how they can determine the difference between and accidental overdose, and an intentional overdose?Some chemical in the brain reveals intentions?It is a shame f... | |
| Tom Petty: It was an "accidental" OD When is an overdose not accidental? When folks are ready to say "check please".I have watched many folks leave this spinning blue sphere, and some are more adapt at dealing with the suffering that comes towards the end then others are.My father... | |
| 2018 exactly what is ‘High End’ audio? Why do humans feel the need to slap labels on everything?Here is your 'High End Audio', same as it was in 1950's: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziMw7uh9VNo | |
| 2018 exactly what is ‘High End’ audio? At the end of the day, how do you decide who is or who is not, in the club? Whomever wants to be in the club, is in the club."High End" is simply a state of mind, just like "Happy", and there is no scientific correlation as to what physical pro... | |
| Do I need a sut? Hi Jeff,It’s probably best to ask Keith, or wait for one of our more knowledgeable members like Ralph or Al to chime in.That said, I believe that your numbers are correct, that SUT would give you 3 dB more gain than the ones built into your Herron... | |
| Brands that have the least depreciation In general, I would say the brands that pay the most money for advertising and reviews.Brands like ARC, Pass Labs, Sonus Faber, Vandersteen, VPI, etc., tend to hold their resale value better, and be easier to re-sell due to name recognition. | |
| How to drive yourself insane It would be wise to filter what you read on these forums. Find the industry expert and listen to them. Surprisingly, written by an industry expert. Hahaha!I do agree with Steve's first line, filter what you read, on these forums, and from "indu... | |
| How to drive yourself insane I get impatient and wonder what's out there. Audiogon was so seductive. I try to do my homework reading up on DS vs multibit, DAC chips, upsampling or not, interconnect limitations per source, etc. and never could get to the bottom of just h... | |
