Significant steps? (DAC)
Very well said... i said the same thing but in a less clear way... Thanks..   not sure where neat dividing lines are, this is where clever new products blur the breakpoints but better is better, without doubt, but one needs a system and setup... 
Real or Surreal. Do you throw accuracy out the window for "better" sound?
I would say that audio hobby is a journey beginning with the wished basic gear synergy ending at an acoustic specific destination... it has ended for me... Lessons learned and applied... Music is my hobby as decades ago it was but this time with n... 
Class D amplifiers. What's the future look like?
Impressive list of opinions...Thanks... But i know nothing in amplifier design... As many here... It will had been interesting to know the date and year of these designers opinions about class D ...

In my opinion you are right... All I’m saying is that, although I also go for "realistic" audio reproduction, and consider the "real" sound of acoustic instruments a kind of benchmark Add to that all the information lost in stereo system by cr...

Thanks for the beautiful Quote snilf ... Like the pragmatism, but not so sure about Pierce (despite mahgister’s fondness). And I don’t see how we can do away with the ding an sich! The "I’m not a nominalist either" remark was a response to mahgi...

The recording engineer take also a perspectival angle on this reality pie which is also himself ...My system is a link between my acoustic perspective and his own trade -off...And the recording engineer and me we can partake the same conscious inn... 
Real or Surreal. Do you throw accuracy out the window for "better" sound?
Exactly... Thanks... @snilf There is no corresponding "objective reality." That’s right. Everything that "is" must be somehow taken by us. No raw given, no way to check. Even the "real, objective" cello on the stage, playing live, is heard by m...

i am not nominalist... Perception is not the capture of a non transformed nor participated reality outside an isolated subjectivity... We dont perceive the world through a head set... We "resonate" and "synchronize" with the phenomenon we focus... 
The sound quality from DACs - is it all the same?
😊I think exactly the same as you... You said it well... My two different main dac are relatively low cost but i optimized everything around them and especially put them where the synergy is good and upgrading is meaningless for me , it will be ma...

Do you mean there is a difference in style when Michael Brecker play alone and when he play with his brother ?   I stumble on a "fusion" song i did not like much instead of jazz did you mean this ? @mahgister  I can listen to Michael Brecker...

The more i read audio threads the more i realized people are unsatisfied in many cases and frustrated... This had nothing to do with price tags or branded name choices very often... Synergy between components at any price and embeddings of compo...

I am not bothered if i analyse my soundfield at all because it was done right... It was not easy to do it , we must learn about acoustics and few other things.. I refused to listen music with unnatural sound component...I cannot it bother me too ... 
Jazz for aficionados
Thanks acman3... I plan to do it.... I like almost all i listened to on youtube ... Mahgister, can't go wrong with  any. I listened as they came out and would lean to the    Can't decide, you need to listen to them all, and make your own cho...

i perceive clearly a difference in your video as evweryone who will hear them ... One is more fatiguing than the other and you were right , one is more natural it is evident especially  when coupling your voice with the recorded one... Now i will... 
Real or Surreal. Do you throw accuracy out the window for "better" sound?
The original recording is an acoustic perspective or take resulting from trade-off choices  conveyed by the gear system to another acoustic perspective ,where they will be translated  in our room  for specific ears/head... Accuracy refer to measu...
