| Chinese DAC's i am very happy with my Douk Chinese tube pre-amp equalizer at a peanuts cost with 7 tones control... I am very happy with my Hidiz AP 80 pro dac+equalizer+ music files bank at a peanuts cost right now... I am very happy with my battery head... | |
| Chinese DAC's Wise post! I dont need to write anything more... I learned long ago when I could still hear well that electronics account for a small part of one’s sound compared to transducers and room acoustics. But like most of us I like nice things,... | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy However, after all of that, he concludes that they are better for jazz and orchestral and perhaps a bit reticent for pop and rock. This made no sense to me, especially for a $40.000 speaker. I am curious about the opinions of anyone else who has ... | |
| Chinese DAC's I had a french NOS dac and a low cost chinese one Hidz pro 80... Each has his synergy with one or the other of my 2 system... Synergy of the dac with amp and pre-amp beat the country of design and even price as decisive factors in my experie... | |

I already explained my perspective which is not an interesting one for most consumers of gear : Making ourselves our own experiments at peanuts costs... (especially in acoustics). Any thread reflect our actual life : passivi... | |
| The Insane World of High End Audio! Is it All a Scam? You need to stop harassing me... Prove me wrong about a point , gave me an argument... If not shut up... Buy an acoustic book and try to figure out how we hears sound and what it means... I can recommend one very deep if you ask... I... | |
| The Insane World of High End Audio! Is it All a Scam? You claim to have tuned a 100 helmholtz resonators by ear and put in some seamless mechanical equalization with it, etc. Again, I think you’re full of it, some bizarre theory crafting in play again...gives you psychological solace perhaps. Now... | |
| The Insane World of High End Audio! Is it All a Scam? @mahgister You are a theorycrafter and you live in your head. You wrote volumes about BACCH on different threads without ever hearing it or living with it...quite bizarre actually, don’t you think? Probably because you never read a book about a... | |
| The Insane World of High End Audio! Is it All a Scam? Now Suppose, That i justify my ignorance of acoustics by claiming that , price matter, gear matter, my taste matter more than acoustics basic... We often read also that musical taste matter and all musical styles forms are equal... Sorry ... |
