| Anyone (everyone) care to throw a dart? How dare you impugn my mockery and castigate by innuendo my biting commentary? Have you no sense of literature? Or television, even?! Returning to sarcasm: no sense of humor, obviously. | |
| Acoustically incorrect cooling? If your heat sink fins are so hot you need silicone you have bigger problems than ringing. My bet is they barely get warm to the touch. Take your material of choice- acrylic, MDF, cocobolo, whatever- slap some carpet tape on it and stick it to the... | |
| Cheap Tweeks Save $1140, get 2 sets of Nobsound springs for $60. Then when you are ready skip right past Gaia and get the much better Townshend Podiums. Meantime the (21 year old) topic is cheap tweaks, so dig some rubber bands out of your kitchen clutter dra... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? Have we figured out what we hear when we change the direction of a wire yet? Not in the sense of what is the cause. But thanks to Ted Denney we have what it sounds like. | |
| Important additions Not a lot of Country Western lovers here. What about when Johnny Cash added June Carter Cash? And then the topper, when Dewey Cox added Darlene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oflbCHWZCBU | |
| The Absurdity of it All Expository Writing 101: 50-60-70 year old ears stating with certainty that what they hear is proof positive of the efficacy of analog, uber-cables, tweaks...name your favorite latest and greatest audio "advancement." How many rock concerts under t... | |
| Never Use HiFi-Exquis - Worst Merchant Ever! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89tIZA2B23A Chokes me up every time. | |
| Anyone (everyone) care to throw a dart? What a coincidence, I was trying to inject a little levity and that is why I didn't specify an amp or speakers or cable. The secret of comedy is out. Seinfeld ran decades and did you notice? Never once did Jerry specify an amp or speakers or cable... | |
| 2 channel setup - Should I add a center channel or $1500 subwoofer? Better off with four $350 subs. IF you have the space. Unless you prefer lower Hz in one listening spot.^^^^THIS!^^^^Nothing beats 4 subs! Other than of course four even better subs! But four small ones is WAY better than one of ANY price or power! | |
| My system....what and how will cabling impact? Again thank you all for your input. As a neophyte it is still hard to imagine wires, cords and interconnects can make such a significant difference.Or vibration control too, apparently. If you had zip cord, patch cords and freebie rubber power cor... | |
| What do you have on order RIGHT NOW. Copper tinned wire mesh. And a LCR meter. | |
| Important additions Without a doubt the most famous addition was when Blue Oyster Cult added more cowbell. | |
| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! It refers to the audiophiles who have actual, you know, ideas. | |
| Digital Research 4X12F Speaker Cables Follow Up Review Yes of course burn-in happens. Sometimes with some components the changes are so fast I can hear they sound different at the end than at the beginning of a song! The McCormack DNA1 amp, Herron VTPH2A phono stage, and Koetsu Black Goldline cartridg... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? I think the only possible way to understand the nature of sound perception is to focus on studying a short piece of single-core wire. There may be something to that. It seems to me it is all down to propagating a field. The field starts with sound... |
