| Acoustic Zen Matrix Reference II vs. Absolute Copper IC's Happy to hear you got your power back on ahead of schedule :) | |
| Questions about Ethernet Cabling Good to know. I have ordered an Etherregen and waiting for its delivery so I am not there yet. This was in response to the company above who will take your switch (Cisco) and wire in an upgraded clock for 375 euro. The point above is stating it ... | |
| Questions about Ethernet Cabling Just was poking around regarding different or upgraded clocks in switches, and noticed this on the Uptone Etherregen website: Extreme usage with an External Reference Clock: The Crystek CCHD-575 oscillator used in the EtherREGEN is one of the lo... | |
| Acoustic Zen Matrix Reference II vs. Absolute Copper IC's @dalims4 Just read through Van den Hul's website; didn't know they (and some others) were making cables of a carbon/metal. I have read some good things over the years, but I found this from their FAQ a little interesting: 6-2 Q: Is there a soni... | |
| Acoustic Zen Matrix Reference II vs. Absolute Copper IC's @stuartk I've been listening to the Hegel with the Silver Reference IC's. The sound can be a touch bright with some CDs and given that 1) the Hegel is much more resolving than the Wells and 2) I'd prefer more warmth if I can get it and still ma... | |
| Interesting observations Now I am wondering how a Sony XBR sounds as a streamer. | |
| Interesting observations If someone gives me the scientific answer why blackberry pie tastes better than blueberry pie, I will give you the engineering answer why your cables sound different. | |
| Zavfino Hi Ho Silver? | |
| Science that explains why we hear differences in cables? Hear is a science lesson and a couple of hour stream of consciousness from a audiophile and 40 year engineer with Belden.Very useful dictionary and physics book described..Watch "Galen Gareis, Engineer and Designer of Iconoclast Audios" on YouTube... | |
| Cable Management Tips and Tricks they?One question I still have is this....I get how running a speaker wire next to a power cord could create a problem...but what I'm wondering is whether a pair of interconnects...say R/L channel to a single source...will also benefit from the ad... | |
| Ethernet Cables Good stuff @akg_ca but is there not an issue with using a cat 8 cable with metal ends, in that it grounds both devices which may nullify the galvanic isolation of the DAC it plugs into? I have read that cat 5/6 is best for this reason, but this ca... | |
| Science that explains why we hear differences in cables? It's not very different than some of the golf threads I read. "A brand new set of irons or a new driver will definitely improve my game."Scientifically, it might. Then again, if you think it will, it might. Can it be measured? Yes, the spin, the f... |
