| different people may hear the same sound differently... @cd318 Exactly what I have been saying though by some of the responses you would think I suggesting eating babies. | |
| different people may hear the same sound differently... @djones51 I agree that this should be universally understood. To me, it’s why I look for electronic components that measure beyond human audibility and speakers with a flat FR in anechoic chamber since they would be easier to "tune" to my ta... | |
| different people may hear the same sound differently... @nonoise One would hope but there are clearly many who don’t. Or they haven't kept current with modern research. | |
| different people may hear the same sound differently... Great book... "How do our brains create meaning from the sounds around us? That is the question at the heart of a new book from neuroscientist Nina Kraus, called Of Sound Mind." KRAUS: So I think it's a really compelling point that each one of u... | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? @jerryg123 There is no better, there is only different, when it comes to opinions of taste. Tubes sound better to you, great. They don't sound better to everyone, as proven by @djones51. Our preferences are determined by experience, learn... | |
| The science of why we like — and dislike — certain music I believe the implications of this extend beyond simply what type of music we prefer to actually having something to do with what sounds we prefer. Why do some, but clearly not all, people prefer tubes to ss for example. It's obvious that while o... | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? I don’t use a tube preamp with class D amps, kind of defeats the point of getting class D. I don’t want a damn tube in a DAC either. If you want tubes then buy tube amps. My feeling too....But don't worry, from what I hear in another thread, in... | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? Speaking for myself, it's all about what I hear. Usually, I already know the price. But not always. The "specs" doesn't really matter. Many would agree with you about "specs" not mattering to them. Many others feel differently. Whatever wor... | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? @jerryg123 Also it is interesting that the majority of owners of separates utilizing Class D power amplification are using Tubed Preamplifiers like LTA, A-S, AR, SUPRATEK. Quick Silver, on and on. How do you know that the majority of cl... | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? @twoleftears Only in the most superficial way...The spec wars of Japanese transistor amps were based on a false premise...The science and engineering has improved in the last 50 years. See: "The other important trend in the 60’... | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? @mapman Right on the mark. | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? @kairosman Now have a CODA CSiB integrated (Class A/B, first 12 watts in Class A) I owned a CODA amp many years ago that did the same thing- class A for the first 10 watts or so, then class A/B. I ended up replacing it with a Spectro... | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? Bruno designed the Rogue amplifiers? Thought Mark did, shoot better tell Mark. Bruno designed the amp module which is the heart of the amplifier. | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? @twoleftears The problem is that the acolytes of Amir and Gene listen with their eyes, not their ears. That's a gross mischaracterization. They do objective reviews which are widely respected and appreciated. Let’s be clear: it’s only ... | |
| NAD M23 Stereo Amplifier: Best Amp Ever Bench Tested?!? @facten My apologies- what I meant to say was I have not heard the m23 in MY system. I heard it briefly at a friend's place. Sorry for the confusion. All the purifi and ncore amps I have heard and/or owned over the years have had a very simil... |
