| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. @mdalton +1 I suggest it is not just gear that is susceptible to effects of noise or responsible for generating noise, but also interactions between low and high current cables (AND THEIR CONNECTORS) that are operating in close proximity to each ... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. @mdalton I was intrigued by your exerts from the PSM156 review in ASR so I read it. My suspicion was confirmed, Amir tested the device with one piece of hifi gear attached at a time. My understanding is that higher end power conditioners have seve... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. @oberoniaomnia I respect your opinion. As a marine biologist do you think that Amir testing commercially available audio gear is in the same category of scientific work as an NSF funded project to understand how physical, chemical and biological ... | |
| Bose 901 Review Well Done. This peaked my interest because I noticed a pair of Bose 901s lurking behind Steve Martin, Marty Short and Selina Gomez on the set of SM’s supposed NY apartment in the latest series of “Only Murders in the Building”. I wondered if this was part of... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. I have several problems with the site and with Amir, but mainly it is the name “Audio Science Review”. Science is a systematic discipline that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable hypotheses and predictions about the universe. ... | |
| What exactly is ROON? I think if you like reading liner notes you would like Roon. If you don’t know what liner notes are because your music appreciation evolved with iTunes you can read about them here: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/liner%20notes | |
| Has this ever happened to you? @deep_333 thanks for your concern. Even with all my tinkering, I still find lots of time to just listen - but now I am liking that part a whole lot more. In fact, I am going through all my lps right now and putting the ones I don’t just love in a ... | |
| THORENS in USA @lewl28 nice looking table by the way. I have an old Thorens TD150 mkII and love it. | |
| Has this ever happened to you? @deep_333 so what is your experience in the realm of audio satisfaction? Are you happy with your system? | |
| Chord M Scaler with HiFi Rose 130 streamer? If using Chi-fi power cables, look for OCC copper. They are so cheap you can try several models and see which one works best for your application. | |
| THORENS in USA Assuming you are in the US. https://hifiheaven.net/product/thorens-td-1601-electric-lift-auto-shut-off-turntable-with-tp-160-tonearm-walnut/ Or in Canada. https://vinylsound.ca/products/thorens-td-1601-turntable | |
| USB Cable Recommendations Under $500 I find this cable works very well: https://silversonic.com/products/digital-cables/mirage-usb/ | |
| Are upgraded power cables for subwoofers worth it? @jrareform that is a lovely looking cable. It uses pretty ordinary copper hiwever which is why it is so cheap. If you want good performing premade Chi-fi cable, go for cables that claim to use OCC copper. Here are some examples I have used with... | |
| Are upgraded power cables for subwoofers worth it? I use upgraded cables on all the subwoofers I set up and use. The sub in my main system has a 400W class D amp. It’s what I would call high end lifestyle gear, and is pretty good sounding. It came stock with a consumer grade 18 gauge cord with ... | |
| Chord M Scaler with HiFi Rose 130 streamer? @moose89 great, let us know how this works out. I suggest you not scrimp on the power cable supplying the new LPS. |
