| speakers for 24/96 audio Irvrobinson - I assume that you buy properly sized amp for the speakers and the room. My amp is rated 150W at 6ohm and I am pretty sure I am getting peaks even larger than that (headroom). It corresponds to largest digital number coming from CD - ... | |
| speakers for 24/96 audio Mapman wrote "you definitely want very good, younger ears"Oh yes, but where can I get it? | |
| speakers for 24/96 audio Al, Thank you. You brought very important point - quality of the recording engineering (on the top of compression issue that Shadorne mentioned). Average quality is not very high while some of the recordings I have are just incredibly good. Perhap... | |
| speakers for 24/96 audio What can I say - I posted example showing that quality amplifier is not a limiting factor. Why not to respond to that? If you think you can find any mistake in my reasoning please say so. Even for my own Rowland 102 (a class D amp) dynamic range i... | |
| speakers for 24/96 audio Shadorne, agree about compression but it is simply who is driving the market. Release uncompressed piano recording (about 96dB dynamics) and a lot of people will complain that on their boom boxes or shelf speakers woofers are constantly buzzing. H... | |
| speakers for 24/96 audio I was trying to show that 16/44 recording wouldn't be a perfect process and that's why it is done in 24/192 but downsampling to 16/44 also takes away quality. Digital reproduction (as well as analog) have limitations. Filtering screws up transient... | |
| speakers for 24/96 audio "capturing the frequency domain information at 20KHz, 44.1KHz sampling is completely sufficient to perfectly capture the sine waves"Maybe sufficient for sinewaves but not for the music because it would call for brick wall filters that have very un... | |
| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... "No signs of stress or distortion" - that might be due to line and load regulated power supply in your REF1000. 99% of the other amps have completely unregulated supplies - that is why class AB amps have monstrous size toroidal transformers and a ... | |
| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... Ckoffend - I might be wrong about heatsink since they talked about ADDITIONAL heatsink (module has its own) but I don't really know If REF100 has additional heatsink (picture shows some heatsink). Continuos power rating doesn't make much sense any... | |
| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... "First off, the Ref 1000 is not a 1000 WPC amp, it is a 500 WPC amp (but that is really only for peak/short periods, not continuous)."REF1000 is rated 1000W/4ohm. By "short periods" only you probably referring to specification of Icepower module 1... | |
| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... I think it is just that to SOME people class D sounds great and for OTHERS not so great. You happened to be in the second group. Some reviewers and makers (like Jeff Rowland) love class D while others hate it. It is all subjective. On the other ha... | |
| speakers for 24/96 audio Irvrobinson - 20kHz frequency is reproduced accurately (no aliasing). As for the amplitude, theorem assumes infinite number of samples (of periodic signal). Because it is not the case, interpolation is done with Sinc functions but with constantly ... | |
| speakers for 24/96 audio Mizuno - in order to avoid aliasing there should be no signal at 1/2 of the sampling frequency. In order to achieve it data has to be filtered out at 1/2 of sampling frequency in A/D processing.Notice, that we are talking about preserving frequenc... | |
| The Physics of Electricity "After quite a bit of listening I concluded that the exotic wire sounded very slightly better than the "junk" zip cord.""we've secretly replaced the fine coffee they usually serve with Folgers Crystals"Thank you very much. I will still go for fine... | |
| Cat-proofing your speakers... What is yellow-brown and looks good on a lawyer?A Doberman.Sorry, I couldn't resist.The only way to cat-proof (as well as child-proof) your house is not to let them in. Cats cannot be stopped. They have to investigate everything for the reason of ... |
