Taming edge from remastered CDs?
Ivan_nosnibor, Pretty much everything affects jitter. Power conditioning is very important to avoid system noise induced jitter, but it won't help in reduction of the jitter already present in digital signal coming from the transport. Clean power ... 
Please help with Spectron Musician Issue.
Rob, I considered Spectron Musician as an upgrade to my class D Rowland 102 - not anymore. Rowland wouldn't do that to me. It is possible that with different speakers (complex load) it behaves differently but no matter what - when they cannot find... 
New CD´s with errors, acording to dBpoweramp
Sometimes they have slightly weaker reflection. Try cleaning your laser lens. 
Fuses that matter.
Al, I agree - It doesn't make any sens. 5A slow fuse (3AG Littelfuse) has about 0.02 ohm.Let assume that another fuse is 0.01 ohm - twice better (hard to believe). The difference of 0.01 ohm is equivalent to about 3 feet of gauge 12 (1.6mohm/ft) h... 
Panasonic VT50
Brianpack, We checked, with ABT store Audio/Visual specialist, Panasonic's manuals and we found that it outputs only 5.1 Dolby with digital broadcast. We also checked the menu structure for output format setting and we found none. Perhaps Panasoni... 
Panasonic VT50
What I don't like about Panasonic TV is that digital audio output is automatically set to 2 channel with NTSC (no longer broadcasted) and 5.1 Dolby with HDTV. My DAC does not work with 5.1 Dolby and there is no way to change it on Panasonic TV (no... 
The Night Air
AM stations have to reduce power at night per FCC regulationshttp://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/why-am-radio-stations-must-reduce-power-change-operations-or-cease-broadcasting-nightI've noticed, listening to AM station, that at about 6PM signal rapid... 
What value cap to bypass power supply cap?
I'm not sure why you need sequence of capacitors. It would make sense if you got fast and slower caps but your proposed caps vary only by value. I'm not even sure you need any caps. My vote, as I proposed before is just one cap of 1uF at the ampli... 
What value cap to bypass power supply cap?
Dave, thanks again. I found nice drawing that shows how rectifier diode behavior introduces EMI:http://www.powerint.com/en/community/papers-circuit-ideas-puzzlers/circuit-ideas/careful-rectifier-diode-choice-simplifies-and-Also notice at the "VDC ... 
What value cap to bypass power supply cap?
Dracule1, the only purpose of this scheme is to increase wire current delivery since capacitors are charged in narrow current spikes of very high amplitude. You can connect them in series but be sure to use as thick wire as possible and to connect... 
What value cap to bypass power supply cap?
I would connect 12 capacitors parallel cap #1 to #12 to connect back to #1 (form circle). Now connect rectifier's output to cap #1 and load to cap #7 (opposite side of the circle). High frequency bypass cap should be, in my opinion, at the load to... 
What value cap to bypass power supply cap?
Dracule1, 1% cap won't do much to reduce ripple but will deliver current when demanded during high frequency transitions where main caps is too slow (inductive). It will also work to suppress high frequency interference. Imagine that high frequenc... 
What value cap to bypass power supply cap?
Dracule1, no I would not recommend Mundorf for AC line filter. What I meant is that all your caps are most likely connected in parallel and then to the amp's circuitry. At the input to this circuitry I would put 1uF cap. When you connect caps in p... 
What are your general thoughts of B&W speakers
Manitunc, That was exactly what I read in the post when somebody went to buy B&W but listened also to Sonus Faber. He felt that B&W were more "impressive" but left store with Sonus Faber. 
What value cap to bypass power supply cap?
Thank you Dave for good word but I'm only trying a little to repay all great thing I learn on this forum. Almarg is is the one to be praised for sharing his knowledge and constantly helping people. He is pretty much a guru for all technical things.
