| Audio stops pain @serjio Why did I write this? Because it is my personal opinion. Bad sound is as annoying to me as bad music, but I feel relaxed when music is beautiful and sound is great. | |
| What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? If the current goes the other way, one side sees the impedance of the amplifier. The other (ground) sees the the impedance of the amplifier, but also sees a parasitic path through through that ground and out to "somewhere". Now you have a differe... | |
| Eminent Technology 8b Speakers - Amp/wattage Recommendations I would think it might be good assumption, but I'm not sure about tube amps. It would be better to ask tube amp experts like atmasphere. @atmasphere Ralph, could you chime in? Does limitting low end allow to play louder? I know that with some ... | |
| Audio stops pain Sound of bad system IS the cause of pain and migraines, while sound of good system takes them away - choose wisely. | |
| Good cassette player? I remember much better treble extension in AIWA deck equipped with HX-Pro (bias servo), but it was only for recording. | |
| Eminent Technology 8b Speakers - Amp/wattage Recommendations @russ69 I would assume that this would concatenate filters affecting not only attenuation, but also the slope dB/octave, unless filters are very far off crossover points to remove, for instance, lowest frequency (high energy) from tube amp. I s... | |
| What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? As I clearly said, from the speaker standpoint, the speaker itself is balanced, however, if you are considering noise on the speaker cables induced back into the amplifier, it most definitely is not balanced because the impedance on either cable ... | |
| Helping friends/relatives with system purchases, your experience. I wouldn't. Not only that sound is very subjective, but also you might be engaged forever or even blamed when something goes wrong, or when they hear better sounding system in friends home (what a shame :) ). It is a little bit like recommendin... | |
| What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? Speaker by definition is balanced. Noise currents induced in both wires cancel at the speakers, since there is no other return path. If you question that, then perhaps you should read what Benchmark Media posted on their website in regarding to ... | |
| Eminent Technology 8b Speakers - Amp/wattage Recommendations Your speakers sensitivity is 83dB at 1W. Sitting at 4m distance is equivalent to 12dB drop, but second speaker adds 3dB and room reflections another 3dB. In the end it it will be 77dB loud at 1W, 87dB at 10W, 97dB at 100W. It might a bit less d... | |
| What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? @deludedaudiophile So, you are not EE. Well, I am - designing low level electronics for 40 years. Sorry I cannot explain it to you better. We agree to disagree. | |
| What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? In single ended connection we are passing signal and reference point (analog ground). There is a loop from the output to input and back by return - analog ground. Induced electrical noise currents in both wires flow in the same direction and cance... | |
| What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? I suspect that reason for oscilloscope to have plain coax is capacitance. Twisting wires reduce inductance but increases capacitance - important with scope’s high input impedance and very high measured frequencies. Unfortunately this coax arrangem... | |
| What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? My understanding is it is better for electrostatic noise rejection but there may be circumstances where shielded twisted pair is better for magnetic. Twisted pair exposes both wires evenly to electric and magnetic fields causing identical induc... | |
| What's better, one conductor or two conductors for an RCA interconnect? When shield is used as return any electrical noise current induced in the shield will create voltage difference along it - between source/output and destination/input. Input will "see" the difference between output signal wire and output GND, pl... |
