| Searching for new speakers: Wilson, B&W, ?? Mr_m,Why do I think this is a trap...hmmm.OK, and these are my ears only--except for comments mentioned later.But, after the ML's which are VERY nice and neutral sounding through the midrange...fast, lightning fast...with very low coloration...the... | |

| Do Thiel Audio CS3.7 Rock? Said before, but worth repeating.Jim Thiel told me, back in 1988, during the development of the CS5, that a technique that he and his brother Tom Thiel had realized, was that by dropping the impedence of the bass driver(s)...the amp would be compe... | |
| Will Quantum Computing Bridge the analog gap? Stanwal,This is a terrific answer...very well constructed, intelligent and insightful...my only issue would be the 'which Einstein and Bohr agreed was totally absurd.'Time and time again, today's theory is tomorrow's reality, and that reality is e... | |
| Will Quantum Computing Bridge the analog gap? Daverz,Not sure I understand?Before when I posed the Quantum, I was brought back to the 'size of the file' thoughts that kept coming up.
