Bybee Speaker Bullets?
THe concept of quantum purification the Bybee products reference seems real and potentially useful, similar to concepts of eigenvector and eigenvalue that I am more familiar with in multispectral analysis type applications, but how this is applied... 
Why do I like the Denon 103r so much?
My observations regarding dl103R and classical are consistent with Schubert's comment. Does other forms of music equally well also. My search for the perfect cart for me ended with the DL103R. I recommend building a vinyl rig around it for anyone ... 
Why do I like the Denon 103r so much?
Denon DL103R is the fist cart I've owned in 35 years that I cannot find a fault with. Just very solid and musical in every way. BEing a low output MC, you do have to pay attention to some special setup considerations, but once you do and get it se... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Coot,If you find out please post. I would really like to know. 
What Does Holographic Sound Like?
Hey look, I am open to the possibility that the harmonizer might be the best thing since, well harmony.I grew up in Amish country (no joke). Give me a break....... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
Anybody know what the Ohm F-5015 John has been touting on the site is? It carries a hefty price tag compared to any other models currently offered I have seen recently. 
What Does Holographic Sound Like?
Let's assume the harmonizer has a clear positive effect and the price was not an issue.I still would probably not by it.Its just me but I would not want to have to depend on such a device in order to enjoy my music. To me, it would be analogous to... 
What Does Holographic Sound Like?
I've already indicated how I think the harmonizer could possibly have some effect on sound. I'll defer to those that might have more expertise in this area than me at this point to try to shed some light. 
Why do digital coax cables matter?
"Perhaps you didn't test the right cables, or your preamp creates enough distortion, noise and compression that you dont hear the benefits because they are masked. This is fairly common when using an active preamp. I dont use a preamp, so I dont e... 
How Do Digital Amplifiers Clip?
Didn't realize Ice power soft clips. Good to know. I still do not think I have heard any hint of clipping with the BC ref1000ms though. First time ever in 35 years worth of audio I can say that about my system.One of the first thing I would recomm... 
30 Years of Perfect Sound?
"The only thing that computer audio has murdered is the sound.'Come hear mine. Maybe I can change your mind. 
What Does Holographic Sound Like?
I realize now that I am all in with tweak, the verb, whereas with tweak the noun its way more hit or miss, mostly miss. I just really do not think getting really good home audio sound is so hard that the rigjht knowledge and addressing the fundame... 
How to get the impact of a live concert?
Because of their transmission line frequency dependant manner of sound wave propogation via wave bending, good walsh drivers might have a design advantage when it comes to delivering percussion dynamics at certain frequencies with minimal effect o... 
Vendors Who Post
The whole Vapor thing is very strange. Don't know what to make of it. A lot of hype and a lot of reaction for sure.Censorship as well? In favor of who? 
How Do Digital Amplifiers Clip?
It's a good question. If my Class D amps have clipped, I have not heard it yet. Avoiding clipping like death is a big reason I went for 500w/ch Icepower amps. I like my music loud and my large OHM speakers are not particularly efficient (87db or s...
