| Cassettes still rock! @geoffkait I can get technical, but can you do so? Do you know the definition of dynamic range? I don’t think so. It is obvious from your post that you cannot differentiate between the dynamic range of the song and the dynamic range of the medium.... | |
| What should I choose?? Don’t get anything new, save the money. You seem to be happy with your old system. | |
| Cassettes still rock! Well, they never rocked, at least in the sense of high audio quality. The typical dynamic range is about 8 bit (seriously), wow and flutter can be bad, they melt in hot sunshine and degrade with use. You may like them for sentimental reasons, but ... | |
| Tube rolling ARC amps & Steelhead @klinerm 1. Did you discover the differences between tubes in blind testing?2. Do you have a background in electrical engineering? | |
| Cable Elevators - What do you use? @puerto 1. Could you please explain " what constitutes a scientifically smart elevator"?2. Is you background in electric engineering? | |
| Micromega M-One Integrated - any first hand experience? I have a M-One and can state that the phono stage is superb. I use it with my vintage Thorens TD 160 and the combo, despite being unusual, works really well. Totally recommend. | |
| Cable Survey @geoffkait >>>>Good luck. Nobody measures cables. Were you thinking maybe NASA or MIT? 😛Didn’t you get the memo? Maybe that’s because it’s so boring.For someone who insinuates to know informal logic, you make rather poor argument... | |
| Cable Survey @geoffkait >>>>By pseudo scientific narratives I assume you mean explanations or claims you disagree with. Nice touch. No, I mean claims without any empirical support. You know, the boring stuff that engineers and scientists do,... | |
| Cable Survey @geoffkait Several points here.1. I stated my credentials simply to elucidate why I reject the pseudo scientific narratives about "the sound of cables". There was not argument from you or anyone else that needed to be refuted on its merits. So, no... | |
| Cable Survey Whoa! Appeal to Authority Alert! Big time! 🤔 My dear friend, there is no appeal to authority here, just an explanation why I don't fall for pseudo-scientific BS that is peddled by many in the audio community.Incidentally, the actual logical fal... | |
| Test Equipment vs The Ear Just as listening to music with an electrical engineer is a waste of time.Dear friend, that is a bold claim. Why would that be a waste of time? Have you ever listened to music with an EE? | |
| Cable Survey Sorry, did not want to subject you to any Inquisition, let alone Spanish. :))But I think that you yourself have asked the key question -- why so many manufacturers don't provide those numbers?I use 12 AWG speaker cables that I bought on Amazon for... | |
| Test Equipment vs The Ear Measuring requires at least some knowledge/understanding of electrical engineering -- something that most audiophiles don’t have. Discussing measurements with audiophiles is a waste of time. | |
| Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses? The key is price! The more you spend on your fuses, the better they sound. One should spend many many thousands on a single fuse to be a worthy audiophile. <sarcasm off> | |
| Cable Survey @ toddverroneIt is a good first step. Now, if you could please measure the resistance, capacitance and inductance as a function of frequency, we will have a much more complete picture. |
