| Who's your guitar daddy now? Philjolet"John Williams is the best technical guitarist (classical) I have seen."Classical guitarists come to David Russel's concerts to see if it's even real (vs. made up in studio).Expressiveness is another story - Julian Bream was shaking head ... | |
| “Real” bass vs. “Boom” — how do you know which? Three things improved bass in my system making it more articulate (shorter) and dynamic - new interconnects, new amp and vibrapods under speakers. My old amp had boomy, woolly bass that covered most of the midrange. It got better after replacing p... | |
| Can "Digital" damage my gear? Mlsstl - "I've got over 40,000 songs on my digital server. I have never come across a maliciously recorded digital song."That is very good to hear - thank you."I'd be fascinated to hear of one blown by a malicious digital recording."- that's exact... | |
| Can "Digital" damage my gear? Mlsstl - I don't expect noise/EMI pickup of full amplitude but circuit malfunction is always possible. I don't have control over that. Digital "malfunction" appears to be in addition.Al - I wouldn't know how to start. Inspecting huge files with So... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Rob321 "I mean beauty is in the eye of the beholder"Perhaps spelling error?! - it should be "beauty is in the eye of beerholder" | |
| How to run speaker wires... Gregm - wire has inductance even without twisting (approx. 0.5uH/ft). Twisting doesn't remove or lower capacitance between wires.Making twisted pair of speaker wires does nothing, as Almarg stated, but makes you feel good since you did something. ... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? "to soften the look of HDTV program content" - yes, because some actors asked for it. Whatever they do result is incredible. Both, analog and OTA HDTV occupy the same 6.5MHz bandwidth but you cannot even compare picture quality.I think many people... | |
| Short circuit Creek integrated tech question? Disconnect speakers. Disconnect inputs. Set Volume to min. Replace fuse again - it is likely slow blowing fuse - check manual or inspect original blown fuses. Turn it ON. If it still blows the fuse than most likely output transistor (Mosfet) is da... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? One would even argue that CRT-TV is better than HDTV (it has to - it's analog). It's not "edgy" or "bright" but has this pleasant softness and fuzziness.... | |
| DLP lamps Cruz123 - No it's not the common problem with DLP. I have Samsung 42" DLP with over 6000hrs on the bulb (rated 8000). Previous bulb burned after over 8000hrs. I'm using this TV since early 2001 more than 6hrs every day (I'm an addict) | |
| Entry Level Cables T-BoneIf not for Audiofeil there would be no, as you stated "silly exchange" and you wouldn't be able to present yourself here. | |
| Entry Level Cables Sounds_real_audio"I could very well have a used piece of gear advertised here and then go on threads and in stealth mode to promote that piece."Yes - and that would be bad as well. I hope you're not trying to say that other do it so it's OK.I'm no... | |
| Variac Variable Transformer I agree with Commcat. I found rule of thumb on the internet to apply 5 min. plus 1 min for every month of storage. This would call for 41 min of reforming unit stored for three years. It seems too short and I would do this at least for many hours ... | |
| Variac Variable Transformer It's a problem with electrolytic caps. Layer of aluminum oxide that serves as isolator diminishes over time (years) without voltage and capacitor looses its voltage rating. Applying voltage and keeping voltage at lower levels (for days) will reple... | |
| Researching the CD/HDCD Players from China Tvad - I did not make assertion that people open Lamm preamps either. Every review of Lamm preamps as well as their website shows inside of the box - difficult not to notice. Lamm, according to reviews and reputation makes one of the finest soundi... |
