| I Just Don't Hear It - I wish I did Well, it does depress me that the sort of thinking I attack in my post leads to things like my good state of Texas wishing to stop teaching evolution to my children.As it all applies to audio, not so much.Your attempt at a reductio ad absurdum ret... | |
| I Just Don't Hear It - I wish I did It saddens be that so many people ascribe their lack of understanding of some of the many phenomena within our world to the nature of the world, itself, and not themselves.I've grown so tiresome of all those, "I can't understand how, therefore it ... | |
| LAST - then and now? My dealer says that it is important to clean a record before and, especially, AFTER applying LAST preservative. Simply put, the record will sound better if you do. I have tried this. And my ears have corroborated it. Apparently, it does leave some... | |
| You know you're an audiophile if-- Hey, I figure I'll, probably, lose all my teeth, one day, anyway, so what the hell.I may be crazy. But, I'm not stupid. Maybe I should be a Fox news anchor. | |
| You know you're an audiophile if-- Rather than have expensive dental surgery, you just have your tooth pulled so that you can buy an expensive power cord.You'd have to be NUTS to do that.Let me introduce myself. I'm Nuts. | |
| ARC with CJ? It's good that we've beyond the days of miscegenation laws. | |
| Bi-amp question .. newbie Maybe. Maybe, not. Some products have switchable voltage. Sometimes, by a qualified technician. Sometimes, by the flick of a switch. But, a good point. You should ask Arcam. | |
| Acoustic Zen Satori VS Analysis Plus Oval 9 Yes. And more holographic with a much bigger sound stage and greater clarity. | |
| ARC with CJ? I've never tried to, so I don't know.However, back when I sold high-end, including ARC, neither ARC, nor CJ, ever let the same dealer carry both lines. At the time, no other tube product company of which we were aware had such a policy, so it was ... | |
| Bi-amp question .. newbie I have a lot of experience with bi-amping. In short, it is very hard to do right and almost never cost-effective.I wouldn't recommend it for a "newbie". It's more for someone who either has a very specific problem that needs to be addressed, or, i... | |
| Acoustic Zen Satori VS Analysis Plus Oval 9 In my system (not posted on the 'gon), the Oval 9 was warmer--which may, or, may not be a good thing, depending. And it had more pronounced bass. It may go deeper, too. But, at the time, my system died at about 45HZ, so I don't know.The Satori was... | |
| Suggestions for a PC on my PS Audio Duet I've tried several power cords on my Quintet.Got the most musical results from a DCCA Musical Essence.Not sure if they're still made. But, I got mine on the 'gon for around $200, I think.PS Audio cords were too dark any muddy for it.Of course, YMM... | |
| Has anyone ever cried listening to your system Cyclonicman, I believe you are right when you say, ". . . most people on the planet have a greater emotional response to visual rather than auditory stimulus."And that, ". . . emotional responses are linked to the human situation, such as love, fo... | |
| Has anyone ever cried listening to your system I suppose the "comedians" in this thread have never cried at a movie, either. For if they did, that would suggest that they have a greater emotional connection to the movies they watch.Thus, for them, a tearjerker like Frank Capra's, "It's a Wonde... | |
| Has anyone ever cried listening to your system My wife and I have cried many times.For instance, my wife has cried when John Coltrane plays his solo on, "Flamenco Sketches".As for myself, I have cried while listening to Billie Holiday, for example.When I told my friend Terry, who is an audio c... |
