| Sensitivity Ratings on Preamplifiers or Integrateds vs. Amplifiers If there is any standard for sensitivity it might be 1.23V (+4dBu), but I remember few decades ago 0.3V (-10dBV) was common. By using higher sensitivity they tried to save money - more gain in amp, but less gain stages in all sources.http://www.h... | |

Room EQ Wizard uses this file to correct microphone output. Microphone... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Since I am receiving bit perfect signals nothing happening prior to the conversion to fiber matters IMO.mihalis, that's the beauty of it. With my WiFi computer noise, speed, amount of RAM etc. don't matter, but there is hardware prior to fiber an... | |
| *WHITE PAPER* The Sound of Music - How & Why the Speaker Cable Matters Townshend-audio, It appears that you joined our audio forum only in attempt to place free advertisement for your product. It is dishonest IMO and I wouldn't buy anything from you. Audio2design attempted to explain to you why using square waves i... | |
| *WHITE PAPER* The Sound of Music - How & Why the Speaker Cable Matters Is it just coincidence that the traces track characteristic impedance quite closely?Characteristic impedance always depends on inductance but taking false conclusions and writing papers on it is pretty bad. I'm sure your cables sound wonderful, b... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? I don't think people realize that the USB signal does not get reclocked by the DAC. What they reclock on the DAC is the audio signal that is transported via USB.In async USB DAC receives "frames" of data usually at 1kHz rate and feeds them into bu... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? @mihalis yes, asynchronous USB receives just data and uses own independent clock for D/A conversion. Still, any electrical connection can inject noise and alter this clock timing. As for optical connection - it helps, but it is not a panacea. ... | |
| Member Almarg passed away last night He was always so nice to me, but his nature was to be nice to everybody. People like that, I meet in my life from time to time, give me example and correct my behavior. Without him this forum suddenly makes much less sense to me with bunch of pe... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? @mihalis I called your post a "blanket statement" because you stated that nothing makes a difference when your DAC is connected thru fiberoptics etc. There is a big difference between saying "I cannot hear the difference" and "Nobody can hear th... | |
| Too terminate or not audio2design, I agree - inductance (important factor) will be similar to lamp cord while capacitance (less important) will be on high side. Dielectric constant of cotton is very low (1.3-1.4), but for oiled cotton (why?) it is over 3, increasing ... | |
| Best Patricia Barber or Keith Jarrett Album ? Keith Jarrett - still "Koln Concert"Patricia Barber - "Verse" | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? Audio2design, You're right - that's probably what he was talking about, otherwise it doesn't make any sense. He says "My system uses fiber optic cables. These go all the way to the dac", hoping that optical connection, shielding DAC from electric... | |
| Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me? So I claim that: if your dac receives a bit perfect signal and it is connected via fiber optic, anything prior to the conversion to fiber optic (streamers, switches, their power supplies, cables etc) make absolutely no difference. It is simply not... | |
| Old Ferrofluid, new tweeter? helomech, Most likely it is not completely dry or very thick, but just dried a little - changed viscosity. Parts Express sells ferrofluid that is Ferrotec APGL11 - good for both tweeter and midrange, but they sell different fluids with different... | |
| *WHITE PAPER* The Sound of Music - How & Why the Speaker Cable Matters Let’s forget nonsense about reflections at audio frequencies and concentrate on frequency response. Increased characteristic impedance is not the reason for the signal attenuation at the high frequencies - increased inductance is. Same attenuation... |
