| Member Almarg passed away last night I have nothing to add to the already voluminous outpouring of love and support, but I wanted to be added to the list. I always read every post Al put up that I saw. He was the most trusted to give it to you "straight". | |
| Why don‘t servers/players incorporate polarity switches I was at a hifi demo of some fancy Wilson speakers a year or so ago. One of the store's sales people could tell the difference of polarity right away. He tried to demonstrate it to the customers, but unfortunately for me I was not able to tell. Pe... | |
| Can Room Correction Be Added to an Existing DAC? My Auralic Aeries G1 file player, as well as the G2 and some other Auralic products have digital EQ built into the firmware to be used, or turned off. | |
| USB sucks I was writing about the infinite resolution statement. While voltage levels from say 0 to 2 volts may have infinitely possible levels (I'm not even sure of this due to the quantum nature of the universe) being able to read those infinitely small c... | |
| USB sucks Noise in the signal will mask any resolution below the noise level. | |
| Partly passive preamp? Check out Tortuga passive with remote as well. | |
| Any comments on AES/EBU XLR digital cable VS. BNC Cable The people at Schiit always thought AES/EBU or Coaxial was the best, but now with their new Unisom USB input card they say it's the new best sounding input. | |
| RCA cable design My question in different words (perhaps) is if ground is zero potential (voltage), then the hot (+) caries the "information" to the component or speaker and it dissipates to zero at ground. This is only for single ended, not balanced which flip fl... | |
| DIY interconnect just arrived ~~navships~~, true High Fidelity My guess is that Navships is just some guy in his kitchen selling DIY cables to the public. The design is averagely OK, and at a decent price. It’s not going to stand up to the better AQ, or other company cables, but that’s just my opinion. | |
| Hahahahahahahaha WHAT ARE THE ODDS??? Sometimes I get a similar event, but then discover it's my wife singing along to the words in the song. | |
| Sub at the weakest bass point in a room? thanks Eric,I do have a second sub (both Velodyne DD15), but one is out for repair. I thought to put one in the center, and when the other comes back I will place it against the wall behind the speakers, but off to one side. | |
| Half the length, or double the quality? OK, so I must confess. This was more of a hypothetical question. I was just wondering how much better a speaker cable would have to be if it were twice as long as needed. I have appreciated Erik's questions in the past on non-specific product topi... | |
| Pure Audio Project open baffle speakers @acresverde Thanks for the help. I guess there is of course more than one Ozzy, as I would like to be named Ozzy as well. Just not the bat-eating one. | |
| Pure Audio Project open baffle speakers Ozzy,Sorry to jump in here, but what happened to your Carver speakers? | |
| Same League? Peachtree Amp500 vs Emotiva XPA-DR2 The Peachtree Amp 500 uses an IceEdge AS1202, their newest amp card. It has been very well reviewed for sound and value. You could get the Peachtree, or go buy the same amp by Legacy for twice the price with a meter on the front that is not suppos... |
