For a second system I have been thinking of the Marantz Arch. For something as obscure as the Arch, a link would have helped. It would right up there with using google. I thought is was something done on a balance beam. 👻All the best,Nonoise | |
Audiophiles should learn from people who created audio The science was never settled years ago. The limits of our measuring was settled years ago. All some need is a visual representation of an approximation that we can all agree on as a standard to make them happy. Those standards are just guideposts... | |
Audiophiles should learn from people who created audio Hmm, I just noticed that my post was removed from the 1st page. It agreed with what @douglas_schroeder said with nary a bit of snark, malice or sarcasm, one sentence in length, and polite to boot. Maybe I should revert to my lessor angels. All the... | |
Chinese Loudspeakers ARE GOOD If I may paraphrase an old saying on Chinese food: The good thing about Chinese speakers is, after you listen to them, you have to go back and listen some more. | |

Dealers hijacking the discussions The fish rots from the head down. The bar has lowered, if not eliminated. All of this is like a slow motion version of the demise of the Krell in the movie, Forbidden Planet.For those who haven't seen the movie, the premise goes something like th... | |
Speakers are the first piece of the puzzle Everything prior to speakers have been R&D'd to the point where they can all sound good which makes it more of a matter of taste. Speakers, being the largest generators of distortion, require you to like their sound signature, or house sound, ... | |
PADIS vs Furutech fuses Is that the sound of one hand clapping? | |
PADIS vs Furutech fuses @auxinput, I had to reread what I wrote several times before I realized what I did and then when I typed this, I did it again! I have to pull my mind out of the gutter now and again for perspective. @almarg , I had no idea that something that look... | |
PADIS vs Furutech fuses @crazyeddy, there is a review of the SR Black fuses over at Audio Bacon and in it they show how to make a fuse break in device that should take the pain out of it. I've only tried two different fuses (HiFi Tuning Silver Stars & PADIS) so my ex... |
