| $2000 Tektons, which one for my use? That is as good a way of looking at it as any. When I was close to buying Ulf I called and talked with teajay who immediately said don’t, get Moab instead. He said there is hardly any difference between Moab and Ulf, and you can buy an awful lot o... | |
| how would you describe a system that is musical in nature Every piano I ever seen is locked up so no one can play it. Something to do with chopsticks I am told, whatever that is. | |
| To clean or not to clean... Clean. Or not. Either way is fine. Main thing in order to establish your audiophile credibility is to obsess over it to the point of spending more time worrying and posting about your worries and reading about everyone else's than it would take to... | |
| On ''what there is'' Anyway yeah, I am thankful we have Raul and chakster. We now return you to the thread with the most entertainingly misleading title ever. | |
| How can a system be judged with highly processed, non acoustic music? The old J Gordon Holt mic story made me think some more. This whole listening/evaluating thing is incredibly complex. Nothing new, known about it since like forever. What's hard is trying to put into words what I've been doing this whole time. ... | |
| Backing Away from Stereophile Class A Word to the unwise, limomangus, the "More to Discover" reading list? Watch out. You can wind up replying to someone from 20 years ago, making you look like some kind of Rip van Winkel doesn't know time has passed. | |

| On ''what there is'' There is no such thing as ’’rationality’’ to findin human history. Pythagoras. Galileo. Newton. The guy with the frizzy hair. | |
| I agree with Keef jond- please give one example of Epoch Times coverage that was "batshit crazy conspiracy theory". Link to it. Put up or shut up. | |
| Fuses When upgrading my crossovers earlier this year it involved a long deep dive into what each part (cap, resistor, inductor) does and how each one affects the sound. Every single one of the parts in there now is the exact same part, as measured the s... | |
| Yet Another Post About Power Conditioners! If you are hearing a radio station through your AC that is a first. More likely it is RFI getting into the phono stage. If so it can probably be fixed for free. Clean and treat phono leads, check ground, experiment with moving the phono leads comi... | |
| Fuses If you actually tried it you wouldn't say "may", you would know. Since you clearly do not know, why do you use all caps as if some kind of unimpeachable authority? Shouldn't you say instead, "I have no clue whatsoever just an incredibly strong yet... | |
| I agree with Keef I have been aware for some time now that many of us who were born and grew up here take liberty for granted. Too many assume what has been must always be, as if it can never be changed. As astoundingly ignorant as this is of history we have plenty... | |
| how would you describe a system that is musical in nature If everything sounds clear and is in the right proportions, but is not convincing enough to provide your brain with an emotional experience, the system is likely analytical sounding. If the system consistently transports you into the performance s... | |
| Fuses An anology: despite an apparent lack of rigorous listening tests, we all know that there is a meaningful difference in SQ between tube and solid state amplification. (I know the differences in harmonic distortion can be measured.) Enjoy your... |
