Math + Logic + Science = something completely mad...
dletch2  Let me get to some technical points first.  I brought example of amplifiers in 70s to show that there is always possibility of something we don't know yet.   Designers then believed that NFB is a panacea for everything since it reduces TH...

dletch2, I'm trying to describe what I hear, while you're saying I have to be mistaken because something like that does not exist.  That is my whole point - you're starting from the wrong side, trying to disprove what can easily be heard.  You als... 
Math + Logic + Science = something completely mad...
dletch2, I remember long time ago I had inexpensive cable from Best Buy. I believe it was Monster Cable brand. It consisted of two parallel runs of very thick stranded wire in thick clear plastic (most likely PVC) insulation. It was suppressing hi...

Jitter for one is bidirectional. It causes harmonic distortion and uncorrelated noise.  I'm not sure what "bidirectional" means.  Do you mean "sidebands"?  Jitter does not cause harmonic distortion and that's the reason why is still audible in spi... 
Why Does All Jazz Sound The Same?
@charles1dad   That was a joke 
Why Does All Jazz Sound The Same?
@snackeyp What you are hearing is related to musical training. Classically trained musicians know where the right notes are and get them on the first try, while Jazz musicians go by trial and error. Jazz bass or guitar player "walks" all over the ... 
What happens with Hyperion Sound Design
imith314  Thank you.  I noticed it.  I asked them about ferrofluid in midrange drivers and got no response.  I asked them again today.  Hopefully they will respond and provide support.  Fantastic product, but poor marketing and dealer base.  Pitty. 
Bluesound Vault & Original CDs
RIAA says you can play from computer/storage, as long as you keep physical copy (CD).  That way artists royalties are paid.  You can even legally copy your friend's CD as long as you use "Audio CD-R" (that pays royalties).  AFAIK RIAA doesn't both... 
WHAT IS THE MOST UNIQUE SONG THAT YOU HAVE EVER HEARD?

high sensitivity + low impedance vs. low sensitivity + high impedance
Pretty much the same current is required to drive both speakers to the same loudness (speaker Y will be louder by about 1.5dB - not detectable). 
Connecting a streamer via an Ethernet cable
I use WiFi for practical reasons (cannot run cable across the room).  It might be even a better way of delivery since anything physically connected injects some electrical noise.  We can argue that WiFi introduces electrical noise itself, but it i... 
Does removing "interface jitter" help, if my source has jitter?
Jitter creates sidebands to each frequency at very low level.  With a lot of frequencies (music) it is basically noise added to signal (inaudible without signal).  When I switched from CDP to Benchmark DAC1 I had impression of great clarity, that ...

Audio PC
Regarding inteface - if you're using USB, then you need an ifi isilencer USB dongle. This will correct timing errors between the DAC and your computer. There is no timing errors between DAC and computer with asynchronous USB.  Computer sends data ... 
2 Ohm Tekton Pendragons
@charles1dad Yes, and 2.83x is for 2ohm vs 16ohm comparison. For 2ohm vs 4ohm it would be only 1.41x the current.
