| My Music Format Odyssey Coulda sworn records were around before 8-track and cassette, but you didn't have until after CD? I made tapes too. Open reel. | |
| A challenge to the "measurement" camp Not sure why he insists that gravity is the warping of space is anything but a theory If you're not sure you must not be a very good reader because he already said why. When a guy with 23k irrelevant posts bothers to actually answer straight up y... | |
| to my ears digital audio does not sound natural? something is wrong! Its clear where this is headed. Guitarsam is looking to duplicate the incredible Kenjit Society. Remember he too started out small and battling naysayers but look where he is today! Big shoes to fill, but so far at least following right in his foo... | |
| You can't have too many bass traps... Subs. You can't have too many subs. | |
| powercords At one point many years ago my turntable was battery powered. The battery was connected to a charger. The thing had a switch to disconnect the charger from AC. The darn thing sounded better disconnected, even when the charger was not charging. I n... | |
| Speaker load on tube amplifier... Because of the impedance dip of the speaker, the KT-88's were recommended. Why is this the case? Good question. At first glance it would seem tubes are totally unrelated. Tube amps have different speaker connections for 4 and 8 ohm speakers. But ... | |
| What do you sit on? Ekornes Stressless with ottoman in top grain leather is hard to beat. There's about a million knock-offs of this classic design, with quality and styling details all over the map. But for comfort they are really hard to beat. There's another chair... | |
| Want it Incorporate video into current audio only system, ^^^ What he said. The best way to connect video audio to a high end audio system is simply run the two channels into the high end system. Anything A/V (multi-channel) related will ruin the sound quality. Use a DAC as above if absolutely necessary... | |
| Has anyone shipped things back to China? Oh well, live and learn. This is the last piece of equipment that I will buy directly from China that isn't super cheap. Close, you're very close. Almost there. Why buy anything made in China? Direct or otherwise? Cheap or expensive? Any way you ... | |
| Choosing an SUT? Search around, there is an absolutely incredible number of different SUTs out there to choose from. I do an awful lot of due diligence before buying anything. Many hours have been spent reading literally hundreds of pages on this one subject alon... | |
| powercords Chuck, respectfully, what difference did you note when you did your turntable experiment? You're asking me what I heard more than 20 years ago? You do realize of course there are people who think we need special switches to compare cables becaus... | |
| powercords I believe in the time-honored incremental approach known as proof of concept. Because why argue when you can try and see for yourself? The beauty of proof of concept is you don't have to spend a lot of money, or maybe even any. Just time and effo... | |
| Right channel bias in analog setup henrus: Oh my god. @millercarbon, you are completely right.Heh. Savor. I have noticed that when the last track of the record is playing, the right channel shift is noticeably less pronounced. Right. Because the solution VPI came up with is incon... | |
| Right channel bias in analog setup I seriously doubt its alignment. Odds are your "obvious right side bias" means the center image is a few inches, to maybe a foot, to the right. If that is the case then my question is does it shift as you play a record? Because the way the twiste... | |
