| Solo streamer @invalid - true with Sony, but engineers were easily able to show jitter issue with DACs. Nothing fancy. Audio CDs were never designed to be bit perfect delivery of data. But networks are. As is USB protocol. We don’t connect hard drives, smartph... | |
| Solo streamer @mdalton - Amen. If it is engineering, they must be able to show what is it, exactly. Maybe even have a patent. Otherwise it is vapor. | |
| Solo streamer @soix you don't want to waste your time - so don't. And yet you keep posting long diatribes without any note of science. They are pretty personally insulting too and you also apparently acquired some right to speak for the community? You don't l... | |
| Solo streamer @soix nah, we just know how networks operate. | |
| Solo streamer @aldnorab - only if it is poorly made and cause data loss which you would immediately see in your computer operations (such as slow Web browsing or aborted file downloads). Otherwise bits arrive identical no matter what extender is. This is how mo... | |
| Best budget USB $8.99 Amazon cable. I am not kidding. | |
| Still Looking for a DAC - Audio Mirror Tubadour v and ANK Audio 5.1 As far as I know ANK still employs old DAC chip, 20 bit max | |
| Voltage conversion of Accuphase E-4000 This may help - service manual. You may be able to find your exact unit, or use schematic as a reference. See page 19. | |
| Voltage conversion of Accuphase E-4000 I hear it is basically solder wire to a different tap on the same transformer. Now, trick is to know WHICH tap is it... Typically transformer should have 3 input taps - 100, 120 and 220 which should cover all the world voltages. 100V should be the... | |
| Marantz 3300 - Fanboy issues, buyer beware..... Quality active speakers with Airplay and sub will do. Airpulse or Edifier. Phone or tablet with Spotify or Tidal over via airplay. Edifier S2000MKIII, AirPulse A100, A200, A300. Add sub of your choice. Polk is good. | |
| A Sanely Priced Power Conditioner That Actually Works - OnFilter PDU @helomech - surge protection is real. My furnace died b/c of the surge. Now I have surge protection for it and the entire house. EMI? Not really, IMO. We don't do critical listening in an industrial environment... | |
| speakers and cables @grislybutter - the Web page (parts express) says 250W RMS. The wire is pretty thin for 100W, I'd say. Would anyone run that thin wire from amp to speakers? I hope that cap is not electrolytic. Basically, parts quality should not be less than the ... | |
| Judging speakers to purchase. My favorite music sounds the way I like it to sound. This is the only attribute I care about. | |
| Power consuption of an amplifier So, here is what I found Power output: 150 watts per channel at 8 ohms (300W at 4 ohms), both channels driven Thus, what speakers are you planning to use? Check impedance and not just rated resistance - if 8 ohms speaker actually drops to 4 ohms... | |
| speakers and cables @mswale - that ’speaker’ filter does not specify power rating. Judging from the picture it would only work with few watts amp. '250 W RMS', well, we've all seen boomboxes with '1000 Watts' stickers... |
