| How Much Difference Does a More Powerful Amp Make? According to perceived loudness calculationk^(1/3.5) where k is ratio of powersyour loudness will increase by 15.7%. | |
| Benchmark dac - why such diverging opinions? "you can't handle the truth!" That's very accurate observation. One person even expressed opinion that Benchmark is too resolving making each instrument sound independently while he got used to all instruments mushed together. My experience was si... | |
| Benchmark dac - why such diverging opinions? "Fact is though, on A'gon it seems that most comments about the Benchmark DAC's have been negative."Perhaps because most of people seek very warm sounding gear. Let see what Benchmark's Technical Director John Siau said about it:"We designed the D... | |
| Benchmark dac - why such diverging opinions? "If you had a very "warm" sounding system; high efficiency horns, tube pre and SET amp, the brightness might mellow"None of the above and no brightness. Extended highs and very clean natural sibilants. Benchmark was purposely designed to sound neu... | |

| Surge Suppression vrs. Lighting and Power Spikes Jea48 - one of our customers returns heavy current transients of vector drives to building frame. It works much better for them than ground rods they had before, because earth had tendency to be dry and constant watering them was a big hassle. Unf... | |
| Surge Suppression vrs. Lighting and Power Spikes Jea48 - I'm not sure. I think that if house has already grounding rod they allow to use jumper but if it doesn't then ground rod need to be placed. There used to be a lot of antennas around (none grounded) replaced last years by cable or satellite... | |
| Surge Suppression vrs. Lighting and Power Spikes Gbart - other than crossing over gaps lightning can create big voltage differential between earth ground and neutral by hitting ground near the house. | |
| Surge Suppression vrs. Lighting and Power Spikes Jeff_jones,You can find confirmation on static built-up here:http://www.dvb-brasil.org/how-to-ground-tv-antenna/My antenna isn't grounded since I'm lazy but it is required by law (NEC). In case of lightning damage insurance won't pay me a penny. P... | |

| Surge Suppression vrs. Lighting and Power Spikes "Lightning follows the path of least resistance to ground."That's true but if antenna has to be there grounding ads few feet to building but not grounding can add much more making it higher than surrounding trees and street lamps. | |
| Power Cord for Power Conditioner Cable nay-sayers feel tremendous need to share their disbelieves posting even on cable forum (posting against cables on cable forum reminds me this deaf guy who answered add for music teacher just to tell them they should not count on him).Don't b... | |
| How many electrons? You want to avoid DC on the output since it creates drift velocity and eventually drains high quality electrons, that you paid for, from your expensive speaker cable.It is likely that it already happened to you. Send me your cables and I will rech... | |
| Surge Suppression vrs. Lighting and Power Spikes I use power conditioner with very tight and non-sacrificial over/under voltage protection but still unplug when at home during thunderstorm.People believe that grounded antenna attracts lightning. It is exactly opposite - ungrounded antenna attrac... | |
| I want to burn hi-rez DVD audio discs. I second Taiyo Yuden - company that invented CDR. Their disks are very high quality and last (in case of CDR) guaranteed 100 years (better photo die). So far I used many hundreds of Taiyo Yuden CDRs and about 50 of DVD-R with no single defect. All... |
