| Maybe critical listening skills are bad? Critical listening must be learned and acquired by experimenting with acoustics principle in a room... Not by changing the gear pieces and calling this my taste and listening skills..... Is it so difficult to understand why ? If you dont unders... | |
| Do I need a headphone or speaker to appreciate high-end DACs? K340 has a very nice headstage. Their unit-to-unit sound variation these days is quite horrible; sounds like you have one of the good pairs left out there. These have already exceeded the quoted lifespan of the electret driver; but if it sounds g... | |
| Do I need a headphone or speaker to appreciate high-end DACs? I concur with your opinion... I hate all headphones... Save the AKG K340 because i have a sounstage out of my head... I'm of the opinion there's more meaningful difference between DACs when compared on a good 2ch speaker system. With he... | |
| Maybe critical listening skills are bad? I must be a martian... Or my acoustics studies and experiments enlightened me... Critical skills used to compared speakers are useless... ( save for reviewers who trust their "taste" and dont give a damn about acoustics conditions the look fixa... | |
| Do I need a headphone or speaker to appreciate high-end DACs? There is bad dac... Once you get one which is good for you... Stick with it... Most upgrading dac is a marketing ploy to push consumerism... No dac can beat a good acoustic or make it by itself... Synergy between dac and pre-amp or amp is imp... | |
| The DAC Scam - Almost everyone believes the hype True... Like is true that in democracy we are all equals in right... But as said Orwell "some are more equal than others"... The most important factor all others included together is acoustics (psycho-acoustics too) basics... EVERYTH... | |

| The DAC Scam - Almost everyone believes the hype This hobby for me was about how i ought to learn to install an audio system studying the three main working dimensions of any system , nevermind the price : mechanical,electrical,acoustical... Most people are gullible to publicity and buy gear... | |
| The DAC Scam - Almost everyone believes the hype I am happy with my 2 dacs... Dac make a difference but non on par with speakers or pre-amplification... And Acoustics controls matter way more ... | |
| Organ music, your system, and an old German Wow! I listened to exactly the same Erato Bass organ with Marie Claire Alain to test and refine and optimize my AKG K340 hybrid headphones. When you hear deep bass with your feet and body with bones resonances clear without distortion or boomness... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. Calling an audio marketing ideology "science" reflect a tendency of our dominated social fabric... Arguing about the sound quality of our gear at least make an appeal to our hearing sense, educated or not, trained or not... Acoustics rules ... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. Common sense science and real experience indicated that the ASR set of measures cannot describe the sound experience of speakers nor the subjectivist evaluation in a living room... Common sense and acoustics science with experiments said so..... | |
| «40% Of Audiophiles Are Dying And No One Is Doing Anything About It!» my philosophy has 2 parts: Buy what you can afford... Study acoustics... My deepest salutation brother... So l totally believe in your logic of buying for ‘peanuts’……second hand can be the new ‘Go West young man’…..it’s the new affordable ... | |
| The Audio Science Review (ASR) approach to reviewing wines. I cannot understand subjectivist audiophiles or objectivists either... Acoustics measures by ears and tools matter first and last even over the pieces of gear design because any piece of well done designed gear is replaceable, The room and ea... | |
| Who's winning? Socrates is not satisfied or unsatisfied. Socrates is not a passive consumer of cheap speakers or highly costlier one. Socrates think, experiment and learn acoustics with anything cheap or costly and end always appreciating what he did. A ques... |
