| SACD vs. Vinyl Mikelavigne - SACD looks pretty much like output of sigma delta converter before filtering (1-bit). SACD is equivalent to about 20/96 and it supposed to sound better than redbook layer. Problem is that many people dislike sound of any form or PWM ... | |
| Anyone tried ripping SACD as 24bit PCM? Jylee - DSD in SACD is PWM done at 2.8MHz. Quality wise it should be equal to 20/96 but as far as I remember resolution of the modulator is in order of 8 bits and higher resolution is achieved by dithering. Converting it to PCM on digital side wou... | |
| This is no joke. "the cat jokes perhaps may scar me for life. Not sure I can forget those...."Mapman - As long as you know the difference between a joke and reality you should be OK. | |
| This is no joke. Magfan, Over the edge makes them funny. | |
| This is no joke. Maril555 - you forgot to mention racial, ethnic, gender, age, mental health, political orientation, religion and whatever left (if anything). I hope that weather jokes are still OK? | |

| Do Spectron Amps have faulty switching modulators? I would ask if anybody knows of any problems with Spectron amplifiers - instead of spreading rumors but that's just me. | |
| The "great" sound of reel to reel explained Atmasphere - I wish I knew more about recording process. What you say about superiority of recording hardware over media must be right since I've heard some older recordings as good as modern ones. Problem started only when they started digitizing... | |
| Gallo 3.1 sounds slow and veiled...why? Templetech - Mapman is right. It might be something with amplification since Gallos are described in this review http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/hyperion/938_3.html as sharper sounding than Hyperion HPS-938 that I have.Active 40's are very good... | |
| High Powered Wireless Network for Audio Cwlondon,Switch to MAC - no need for anti-virus anymore. After two years of usage no single hang-up or need to defragment of my MAC-Mini. Zero problems. Unfortunately I still have to use PC/Windows at work. | |
| The "great" sound of reel to reel explained "I want speakers that swing all three ways. That's why I run 6 or more pair at a time in different rooms."Mapman - can you repeat it in front of my wife? (otherwise she won't believe me) | |
| The "great" sound of reel to reel explained Atmasphere - My Benchmark DAC1 was specifically designed not to be warm sounding since according to technical director of Benchmark John Siau warm sound is good for voice and some instruments like guitar but does bad things to instruments that hav... | |
| High Powered Wireless Network for Audio 54 or 45 - Hey, 5 out of 4 of us are dyslectic. I agree that these numbers are theoretical but sustained 3Mb/s DSL speed is also not obtainable by perhaps most of the people.Thanks for Speakeasy.net - my DSL shows 2.6Mb/s | |
| High Powered Wireless Network for Audio CW, 802.11g is fast enough (45Mb/s). Even 802.11b would be OK (11Mb/s) for internet since the best you'll get from DSL will be in 3Mb/s range. I noticed that my microwave frequency is identical to one of the router frequencies. When microwave is w... | |
| Are there any constants in speaker wire designs? Magfan,Yes, RLC is just gross description. There might be even variables that we don't know yet. They claimed in 70's that new SS amps have to sound better than tube amps because they have wider bandwidth and much lower THD and IMD. They just didn... |
