| Why do intelligent people deny audio differences? perception based upon sensation is not fact, it is opinion. | |
| Why do intelligent people deny audio differences? there are two types of errors. failure tomhear what esists, and claimimg to hear what does not exist.the problem:in the empirical world the only corroboration is anecdotal, which is an opinion, i.e., it is probably true and probably false.percepti... | |
| Does 'Accuracy' Matter or exist ? i think accuracy , or perfection or exactness, is a goal many audiophiles try to achieve.it is not achievable. no audio system is perfect.so the question, "does accuracy exist", yes the term exists, but there are no accurate audio systems.such a s... | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? here is what i found from the site:merriamwebster.com/dictionary/accuracyfreedom from mistake or error, correctness, conformity to truth or to a standard or model, exactness.if accuracy is axactness, something is either exact or it isn't. freedom ... | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? hi byronaccuracy is not a matter of degree. something is either accurate or it is not. it is not a relative term. it is absolute. is truth a matter of degree ? no. something is either true or false. there may be degrees of inaccuracy , but accurac... | |
| Do all CD players benefit from burn in? sometimes a piece of equipment sounds worse over time, i.e., it gets bright and aanalytical and it sounds better , out of the box than after 500 hours. | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? hi mike:just a joke but "most neutral" reminds me of being a little bit pregnant. i think you meant swiss speakers are minimally inaccurate. | |

| Does 'Accuracy' Matter or exist ? you guys are forgetting about a basic fact. accuracy means perfection.for example one inch is exactly one inch. in audio, all components have flaws. they are imperfect. therefore accuracy cannot exist .it has nothing to do with listening. its the ... | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? since all components are imperfect, a thorough audition will reveal some flaw or consistent sonic signature.if there exists a component which is "virtually" neutral, i.e., does not reveal any flaws, i would like to know about it. | |
| When does the law diminishing returns kick in? keep it simple. it's basic economics 101. each person has an optimal price to pay for a component. when you exceed that price, your returns have diminished , relative to the cost of the component. | |
| When does the law diminishing returns kick in? in economic terms, production is optimal when mr=mc, i.e., marginal revenie - marginal cost.in audio it means if you spend an additional dollar to attain less than a dollar's worth of sonic improvement, diminishing returns has been achieved.this i... | |
| HDMI cables are all the same? the same hdmi cables i uesd for audio, i also connected to the tv set from the cable box. i noticed differences in clarity and color saturation. for example, the cardas was clearest , but bleached. i have used hd 1.4. note, as dielectrics and meta... | |
