| Can anyone explain in laymans terms why your gear sound better after warm up Temperature is a parameter that is fundamental to the physics of transistors, analog and digital integrated circuits, and other semiconductor devices. Consequently their behavior varies significantly as a function of temperature, and a competent d... | |

| Can anyone explain in laymans terms why your gear sound better after warm up All gear warms up. Any device attached to said gear must operate within design parameters as the gear warms up. It stands to reason that somewhere within the safe operating temp range there is an optimum or "goldilocks" value where the device oper... | |
| [help] I'm too Boomer to stream. :-( I feel for you, labguy. I’m a computer phobic luddite who’s content to play my CDs for the foreseeable future. Being my own DJ and having access to tons of music I never listen to with all the liner notes and recommendations to other music I have ... | |

| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? Sure: Among audiophiles, who have also discussed "for decades" the "sonic effects" of a vast amount of pseudo-scientific "effects" (often barely that). There is literally no pseudo-scientific idea that an audiophile hasn’t come up with, that didn’... | |
| Which of these power cords ? Gee, if I would have explicitly stated something like "all the transformers, save for the last one your house sees" all the above wouldn't have been necessary. Going overboard, to great lengths, to tear apart a summation done in shorthand, that an... | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? Moving cables and the affect it can have on your sound has been discussed for decades. This is not something new or earth shattering.However, when it comes up now and again for discussion, oh how the knives come out. | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? Every time I hear 'snake oil", I'm reminded of Rain Man. | |
| Recommendations for a good power conditioner? Do I even need one? I like what the High Fidelity MC-0.5 passive conditioners do for me. Right now they're 35% off, which is the price I paid for three of them.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Is this for real? I use the Ayre Irrational But Efficacious! CD to do it's work on my system.It doesn't claim any demagnetizing features but uses brown, white and pink noise tracks in stereo, mono, in and out of phase, as well as full glide tones that cover the ent... | |
| Does Digital Try Too Hard? I've heard things you people wouldn't believe. Attack notes on fire off the shoulder of Mozart. I've heard C-notes glitter in the dark with the PPT Gate. All that music will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.Roy, where have you been... | |
| The Truth About Power Cords and there "Real" Price to Performance The funny things about threads like these are the implied overlap of some rich douche paying what would be the cost of a home in a small town to those who'd pay a bit more for something better.Conflating the two serves no real purpose, unless you ... | |
| Distorded sound with Tidal Grimm of Grimm audio says that streaming music is watermarked by the streaming companies and that it comes across like a fluttering sound when played. That could be what you're hearing. I think it's in the >1Khz range where they insert it. Why ... | |
| Which of these power cords ? The power that is spec'd and rated for your home is done at the outlet, not the transformer down the street, or the all the way back to the dam spinning the giant turbines, or the coal plant belching crap into the sky.All of this nonsense about al... |
