| Ethernet Cables Joecasey, perhaps shielding on you AQ is better. How about digital cables? Transmission over S/Pdif is sensitive to jitter while Ethernet is not. | |
| Ethernet Cables Joecasey, you're right - one computer CAN sound better than the other but it is not related to speed (or amount of RAM) but to amount of electrical noise produced. Whether computer can or cannot keep up does not change the sound because timing is ... | |
| Ethernet Cables New computer with faster CPU and memory can do more harm than good with Ethernet connection, often producing more electrical noise. Speed doesn't make any difference as long as it is adequate (pretty much any computer) since timing is irrelevant w... | |
| Ethernet Cables Ethernet cable might affect sound indirectly by capacitive or electromagnetic coupling of electrical noise to audio system. Other than that Ethernet cable transfers data and not the music. Data is transferred in packets (not in the real time). Tim... | |
| Everything Looks Like Shot on Video It depends on TV - on my Samsung it is in the Menu -> Picture -> Picture Options -> Motion Plus -> CustomTwo sliders 0-10 allow for Blur reduction and Judder reduction. I have them at 5, 5 but perhaps lowering judder reduction to 4 or ... | |
| Speaker Improvement Advance Design Better Upgrade Hyperion Sound uses membranes without suspension (spiderweb) - reducing moving mass and improving linearity. Midrange driver (6.5") uses ferrofluid for suspension. | |
| Everything Looks Like Shot on Video It is called "Soap Opera Effect" and is caused by higher frame rate. Films are mostly made using "magical" 24 frames/s. I can set my Samsung LED TV to max frame rate of 240Hz and get the same effect. It is possible that when reconnecting you used ... | |
| The Power of Assumptions Zd542, people tend do "believe" more when they spend money. I remember story about two groups of people given placebo pill that supposed to help with something they suffered from. The only difference was that one group got it for free while the ot... | |
| What happen?? Furman's protection doesn't wear out and it doesn't have internal components that age. You can buy used one if you find a very good deal. One bank of outputs on my Furman are "high current" (still filtered) intended for power amp or sub. I don't h... | |
| The Power of Assumptions Onhwy61, Sure, if you hear music in your head then audio system would even interfere. I'm just suggesting that improvement (perhaps you missed this word in my post) real or not is still a perceived improvement. | |
| The Power of Assumptions These preconceived notions of weak minds are not necessarily a bad thing. If they can hear improvement that's fine - what difference does it make if improvement is real or only in their head?One of the reviewers claimed better bass control with ha... | |
| What happen?? Djohnson54, I had similar experience with Furman Elite 20PFi. Over/under voltage protection is non-sacrificial. | |
| Whole House Surge Absorber. Audioquest4life, looks OK but is a bit expensiveCzarivey, Computer => Abacus :) | |
| Audioquest King Cobras and Diamondbacks King Cobra was called Python before AQ moved production to China, lowered prices and renamed cables. Perhaps they do another marketing trick? | |
| DK Design MKII to Bel Canto M300 upgrade? You can find many glowing reviews of S300 or M300. I use Rowland 102 that is based on the same module and it sounds fantastic. Module used is not ASP250 but 200ASC (just for the reference). Highs are wonderful extended and not "splashy". Mids are ... |
