| A Couple Little Things I'm Wondering About +1 rodman99999 Electric current is a motion of electric charge. The same amount of electric charge that leaves the source comes back to it. Energy has to be delivered different way. It is delivered on the outside of the cable (most of it betwee... | |
| Best Location for Best Cable Normally I would replace cable closer to source - in this case DAC to preamp, but in your case you can set both cables at +22dBu (close to +24dBu pro standard) and the most obvious difference is cable length. IMHO, cable always has negative effec... | |
| DAC Connections to streamer? USB seems to be the best choice since it does not produce jitter directly. It can still induce jitter indirectly by injecting electrical noise into DAC. You could try USB cable with data line only (no +5V, GND) or/and install optical isolation. ... | |
| Bettye LaVette @rpeluso Thank you, it is fantastic - I just finished listening to it. Not to many singers, these days, understands the words they're singing. I can feel she does and she owns each song. I have "The Scene of The Crime", but to me this is much b... | |
| Member Almarg passed away last night RIP Al. My condolences to family. | |
| Think fast: What would you take? +1 toyman What I have learned will come with me. | |
| According to the RIAA, It doesn't look good for physical media Amount of CDs sold most likely doesn't include used CDs sale. I tend to buy used on Amazon for the fraction of the price and often receive brand new or just missing cellophane wrapper. Condition is not that important anyway, since I rip them to ... | |
| Update on Audiogon Member Almarg My thoughts and prayers to you Al and your family. God bless you. | |
| USB cables and Galvanic Isolation USB generates an unpredictable set of outcomes depending on the implementation of USB ports of the server and DACAsynchronous USB can affect sound only by the fact that it is connected to something, like computer (injecting noise). The same appli... | |
| Problem with CD playing through... Cleaning laser should help. Some people had good results with tiny bit of mineral oil on the rails of the laser carriage. Be careful with it - just tiny amount.My CDP had Philips mechanism with magnetic clamp disk holding CD. This disk had felt... | |
| ls this the frequency of vinyl Never dial 666 Hz !!! (frequency of the Beast). | |
| Music server feeding Oppo UDP-205 Your Oppo has asynchronous USB, making PC hardware irrelevant (as long as driver is good). I can only guess, that computer injects electrical noise into Oppo. I would try USB cable without power wires (GND, +5V). You can also try different USB ... | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need unfairlane, claiming that only speaker cable or amp's output impedance affects damping, without taking into account resistance of the coil, shows lack of understanding of basic principles. It also appears that you share this lack of understanding... | |
| USB cables and Galvanic Isolation nicktheknife, If you hear it without signal present, then it cannot be caused by the jitter. Even with the signal present jitter wouldn't show as one frequency, but as added noise (lack of clarity etc). It is alway possible that electrical noise... | |
| No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need b4icu, yes there is a lot of ignorance in this area, so let me try to explain how membrane damping works. When amplifier outputs positive voltage membrane goes forward. Motion of the membrane is caused by electric current thru the coil. When membr... |
