Roy,Thanks for your fantastic contribution here. We can only hope for more really knowledgeable folks like you to take the time and educate us hobbyists. On the 1st or 2nd page I posted about a way I was intending to get at this. I have, at least ... 
Move from Analog to a Digital System
Hey FJ.Not sure what "increditable" means, but I'll take it as a good thing :-)Don't complicate things upfront. You run the risk of analysis paralysis. Start easy with your laptop and a DAC, then go from there if you find it appealing. There are s... 
Move from Analog to a Digital System
Hello Fj.This question gets asked often, although generally on the PC Audio forum. There is a recent thread started by Smrex13 (his first one, titled help a real newbie) you might want to check out. He was starting with an Apple laptop, though, he... 
Bybee Internal Speaker Bullets - user feedback?
Cerrot,Thanks for clarifying. Please note now I'm not looking at spending $1.6k on Bybees. More like $600, per my post from 7/19. Should I find the sound improvement worth it I might eventually spend more on Bybees, though. But I like the option t... 
Bybee Internal Speaker Bullets - user feedback?
Hi Cerrot.Yes, Stillpoints are well documented in A'gon threads. But talk about bang for buck!? 4 Stillpoints under each speaker would cost $2k for Ultra SS or $1k for Ultra Minis. Again, under $4k speakers...I struggle to see the likelihood of be... 
Bybee Internal Speaker Bullets - user feedback?
Thanks Larryi. I did look at your system before replying so that's why I had not asked about yours - intriguing set of speakers!I was hoping to draw some correlation between those experiences and estimate an outcome for mine, but the two data poin...

07-17-14: JmbatkhNet, I like them with some speakers, not with others. Thanks Jm. Which speakers did you like them with, and with which speakers didn't you like them?07-18-14: LarryiWe tried the bullets in a friend's system with much better result...

There is also some chatter on DEQX on computeraudiophile.com. Actually, I've been looking into it as well, along the lines of my posts above (waay above).The DEQX HDP-4, the most expensive unit, has good DAC inside, 3-way crossovers, and digital v... 
Bybee Internal Speaker Bullets - user feedback?
Onhwy61,I don't think these will be the last speakers I'll ever own, but placing the bullets between driver and crossover is easy enough to put in and take out, so should I sell the speakers I would keep the Bybees with me.I'm wondering along the ... 
Best bang for the buck upgrade path for Mac Mini
Yes, I also agree with Mwheelerk.As for the upgrade path, my comments come from running Windows in a laptop and later a CAPS on steroids kind of PC, so no Mac experience. But adding an Audiophilleo with PurePower as USB to SPDIF converter was a ve... 
Bybee Internal Speaker Bullets - user feedback?
We seem to have people saying they tried them and liked what they did to the sound, those believing it just can't work (but apparently haven't heard them), and Ozzy having tried them and believing they are too expensive for what they have inside.....

Hola Acresverde.You mention purifiers soldered directly in line with the drivers of my speakers themselvesThat is actually what I was thinking of when I emailed Jack Bybee. What kind of purifiers did/are you using there? Just one on the + leg of t... 
Sloped baffle
Bombaywalla,The DSP signal processing is touching your music signal in a very fundamental way in that the entire music signal has to go thru the DSP before you can hear it. Same deal with the passive x-over. But the difference is that you change t...

what is your definition of "premium drivers"? Cost of the driver? Cost of a commercial speaker using this driver? The marketing hype surrounding that driver that makes you believe it must be the best? From the little I know, some Scanspeak drivers...

Lewinski... great post. I was impressed by the various digital analyses and corrections that the software was able to effect. Hopefully, speaker manufacturers will be able to achieve greater time and phase alignment, driver linearity and low disto...
