| USING SPEAKER TECHNOLOGY TO KICK OPEN DOORS Beethoven's 9th Symphony, 4th movement. Dry off to "O Freunde, nicht diese Tone!"All the best,Nonoise | |
| Cables more hype than value? Double Blind Testing is nothing more than a parlor trick devised by people with an agenda. We've all known "friends" who for some reason never warmed to stereo like we did. Detraction started early for me as I went deeper into this hobby and those... | |
| Great guys to deal with in the audio industry Vinnie Rossi of Red Wine Audio.Steve Deckert of Decware and his speaker builders, Bob & Mike Ziegler.Paul Grzybek of Tube Audio Design.Pierre Sprey of Mapleshade.The team at Burson Audio will always get back to you with answers as well as Funj... | |
| Any "The Civil Wars" Fans? Thanks for this thread. I just ordered "Barton Hollow" and after some searching, "Follow Me Down" by Sarah Jarosz.Hauntingly beautiful music.All the best,Nonoise | |
| What kind of power cord comes with expensive gear In DBT you can never prove the null (that there's never a difference), only fail to reject it. It's like trying to prove a negative: it can't be done. DBTs are meant to see if there are small differences that can be detected. Those small differenc... | |
| Is audio a kind of spiritual journey? Why Elizabeth, I think you've stumbled onto something without intending to.:-)fetish:1) an inanimate object worshiped for its supposed magical powers or because it is considered inhabited by a spirit.2) a course of action to which one has an exces... | |
| Cables more hype than value? Amazing just how short it takes to go into the weeds. And flounder there. Hopefully, this thread will have a short life.Personally, I've found that there is a difference but the differences pale in comparison to the price the higher up you go.Tobb... | |
| For the sound, or????? I still have the Classic 6.1 from Pacific Valve sitting on a shelf somewhere. Not a bad unit at all but not quite as good as my Burson PI-160. In the right system (speakers with a dome, or textile tweeter) it would sound quite nice. HiFI tuning fu... | |
| What is your take on Mapleshade products John, Sorry I missed your post and that it took so long to get back to you. After experimenting with the power strip in and out of the loop, I found that the CDP sounded slightly better directly into the wall.If I had to use it to satisfy the need... | |
| Is audio a kind of spiritual journey? "The Church of Audiology" LOL.The hobby itself is nothing more than that, a hobby. However, as one furthers themselves in it, beliefs take on a dogmatic vein that borders on religion. One need look no further than here to realize just how we corru... | |
| For the sound, or????? I've not heard the Bada but was interested in it as well. They are one of the good makes out of China and it's their second version, made to Pacific Valves specs and said to be a much better version.If you haven't gotten it yet, you might also che... | |
| First favorite tune "Autumn Leaves" by Nat King Cole. I liked music before hearing it but that song really grabbed me. I just sang it over and over.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Has anyone tried the Speaker Match Plus ? If I remember correctly from what I was told, it helps to block out RFI and the like. I was also told that it works about half the time depending on your speaker. It seems if your speakers run a Zobel type crossover, it won't have much affect at a... | |
| Has anyone tried the Speaker Match Plus ? I've tried the Speaker Match and it did nothing more to my system than the old Dakioms I use. It was so close as to be a draw. And I've been taking the Dakioms in and out to see if I really need them anymore since I've changed my cabling back to M... | |
| Audio Equipment... the word Cool... and Life Zot45, you must have been the envy of the neighborhood. I knew this guy at work who was about 10 years my senior and when he was a kid, he and his friends used to watch Steve McQueen work on his cars on his driveway. He even let them sit in them. ... |
