| Give Satanic Majesties A Chance AFAIK Stones started as Rhythm & Blues band, while Brian Jones started to steer toward psychodelic, very popular at the time as well. Mick and Keith were interested only in R&B (sole reason of forming the band). There were many bands play... | |
| J River Music Software for Mac I also have Mac+Itunes+WiFi+AE, but sound quality after update to Music is exactly the same. Perhaps something else changed? | |
| Speaker cable geometry question Cables don't directly change midrange only, but moving speakers to change wires often does.Speakers are in the exactly same marked location, angle etc. Nothing changed in the room. | |
| Speaker cable geometry question Long time ago I read FAQ by Audioquest on the subject of speaker cable geometry. They claim that skin effect, that starts (copper at 20kHz) at gauge 18, affects the sound. Using multiple insulated strands helps a little, but strands are still i... | |
| A cable question, sort of... heaudio123 They don’t have to be separated, but they often are because it is easier to wire, for isolation, and to reduce capacitance between coils. Common mode air choke has to be wired with a pair of wires (interleaved) because of leakage flux. ... | |
| Dbx encoded discs I’m surprised that DBX was used for noise reduction on CDs, since CDP, by design (CD standard), has its own noise reduction by pre-emphasis and de-emphasis. Each CD provides "flag" that can turn de-emphasis on, but it is almost never used. The mai... | |
| Digital Coax Cable - Does the Length Make a Difference I would only add, that it seems logical for D/A converter clock to be synchronized with incoming data samples (to avoid losing data). In S/Pdif D/A clock is adjusted to average data rate from S/Pdif while in asynchronous USB D/A converter runs a... | |
| A cable question, sort of... No it doesn't but I have the same degree from less known university plus 40 years experience as a design engineer in electronics (many different fields) and I can judge about somebody's competence. The fact that you don't or cannot understand th... | |
| A cable question, sort of... AFAIK Masters in EE in prestigious Columbia University. What about you? | |
| A cable question, sort of... I’m probably guilty of trying to reason with people, who don’t want to learn having their mind set on proving that what they know is right. I would advise such, relatively new on our forum, people, that it pays to listen what Almarg says. When you... | |
| A cable question, sort of... Thank you Al. If we connect speaker with two separate wires apart the inductance of such connection would be proportional to area in between wires. Bringing wires very close would make this area (and inductance) close to zero. Twisting speaker ... | |
| A cable question, sort of... I give up. | |
| A cable question, sort of... It doesn't matter if you wind it as separate coils or interleave windings - it is still common mode choke. It will present no inductance for differential signals, since both wires produce canceling magnetic flux. | |
| A cable question, sort of... @andy2 there is a big difference between cable and a wire. Coiled wire inductance is increased because magnetic flux created by each turn adds up. Cable has two wires that create magnetic flux in opposite direction and coiling them would create... | |
| Oscilloscopes - what specs to look for? Yes, there is alway some antenna, but there is a pronounced increase in noise when shorted probe touches the other circuit (shorted with wire loop or two-pin adapter). Battery powered scopes also show this to some extend, because of these tiny cap... |
