| Class D Technology Guido, thanks for the very practical and level headed advice. I suspect you have more experience with more Class D amps among others than most anyone, plus as far as I know you do not have any particular financial interest in any particular produc... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? Lucky for you Radio Shack went under recently. So more market share for you now maybe. | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? GEoof stop insulting me. You can insult my footers that's OK. Your envy is showing! | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? They only move a little bit, enough to damp the most common vibrations of lesser magnitude, the ones you would never feel or know about otherwise. The grooves the inner part rotate in are wide enough to provide some stability. So you get the best ... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? Geoff, don't be such a cynic. You sound jealous! Calm down. | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? You got it. The spring loaded inner portion of my footers are the part that rotates. It provides the ability to level and provides stability compared to a spring alone. I suspect this would help against those nasty p waves in particular should t... | |
| Class D Technology I recall when I was in college I could hear well to 20khz. I know because I ran tests.I also found it much harder to get sound that was not fatiguing. This is back in analog days even. These days I know I cannot hear to that extent which is normal... | |
| Class D Audio Brand does not honor warranty---AVOID!! jon I had a similar problem with one of my Bel Canto ref1000m amps that I acquired used after a bit. Similar noise as you describe with one. Bel Canto service was fast and reliable. No warranty but cost to repair was nominal and all good ev... | |
| Enough SET Power for Rock and Roll The absolute sound is truly a pipedream. Most likely no two people would agree even if they heard it.I do believe though that there are best practices to be followed in assembling a system that facilitates getting to the best sound possible for... | |
| Class D Technology George not much buzz on the new technics gear yet. Maybe to come. I was in their room at Capital Audifest but they kept talking about the gear and did not play it while I was there. I wanted to hear and was disappointed. Nobody had it in their bes... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? Very cool. Ever try try just holding it? The body would provide a lot of damping of both s and p waves. I have spring loaded rotating adjustable feet under my dac. They were rather pricey in their day especially for Radio Shack. I had them th... | |
| Class D Technology Ok George we get it. You aren't sold on class d yet. Others are. Mine sound great and no faults I could point to when listening. They just make sweet music as said. | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? GK so how do you address that with your system? And do you hear a difference before and after?My stuff sounds great, better than ever as a result of the things I have done to isolate my gear from various vibrations at hand. Detail, soundstage, i... | |
| Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics? folkfreak,I'm with you 100%. There is always room for improvement. But I like others to solve as much of these things for me as possible so I can cut right to just enjoying the music faster. | |
| Enough SET Power for Rock and Roll The easy test is if you can turn up the volume and things are in fact much louder but do not seem to be, that’s a good sign. You can tell by how well you can hear other sounds in the room at same level with volume down then up, like someone talkin... |
