| Looking for Better Jitter Reduction in a DAC Dave and Chris, many thanks for the good wishes.My review of the JPS AC-X... Extremely effective and affordable as an all in one filter/conditioner power cord. In my case, I did not need such powerful filtering since I have dedicated lines and 2 u... | |
| Looking for Better Jitter Reduction in a DAC Dave, it looks like that LPS is one of a kind. Using Google, I haven't seen any others.I contacted Steve Nugent about a Synchromesh purchase and he recommended trying a few things first. He believes that so called "digital" power cables using filt... | |
| Looking for Better Jitter Reduction in a DAC Great idea, @dskinner. I went direct from DAC to amp and the sound is very pleasant. Still sounds like music is from a digital source, but nothing offensive at all. In fact, the amp is warm with nice tube bloom but is lacking the deep imaging that... | |

| RIP John Bonham @shadorne ,I had Carmine's book. It was my favorite and Carmine's beats and fills were awesome. I don't play anymore, but I kept my practice pad, many sticks, and books by Carmine and Buddy Rich, (I'm told Buddy didn't write his).Carmine's double-... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers I forgot to add the late, great Cozy Powell to our list. | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers I was reminded of what I so dislike about Bonham---his playing was so "literal", so un-poetic. It didn’t have any elegance, any grace. Almost rude! His bass drum triplets (one of the tricks he is known for) were played just to show he could do ... | |
| RIP John Bonham It’s too bad that Bonham didn’t live long enough to perform post-Led Zeppelin. It would have been interesting to know if there was another side to his signature style; I would hope he would not have used his 26" kick drum (a major influence on Led... | |
| RIP John Bonham I also saw Zep at MSG in 1977. 10th row or thereabouts. They were firing on all cylinders that night. | |
| Amplifier Starvation ...the 14 gauge in the wall melted away ...This statement concerned me, but I'm glad I read it wrong. | |
| Amplifier Starvation Don’t have your amp and components on the same breaker as high-current household appliances. There will still be possible noise from other lines in the circuit panel, but even out the current-draw in your panel between the 2 legs (phase A and B). | |
| Amp fan cooling without dc current in the 110 line The right way to do it is to use an exhaust fan, either out the back or out the top. Any way to open up the back of the cabinet? | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers I saw Buddy Rich a few times in the 70’s, Joe Morello, Peter Erskine.As I stated earlier, these lists of Rock drummers invariably turn into a list of Jazz drummers. But the reason could be that many of those who make these lists are interested in ... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers John Bonham's part in "Rock and Roll" is a direct cop of Earl Palmer's in Little Richard's "Keep-A-Knockin'"Wow, that is a keen observation. But IMO, its probably a homage to that intro and Earl Palmer. After all, the song is called "Rock and Roll... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers This vid helps breakdown Bonham's approach with LZ, good explanation starting at 3:45 ....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvOm2oZRQIk&index=1&list=PLRytrlpd3oGUl1XyQBYMEQQDER_A3pWC3 |
