Does Heavy Metal music benefit from a high end audio system?
@aubbrin     Classics like zeppelin etc sound great, but I would call that metal, not heavy metal. During their time, Led Zeppelin released 9 studio albums, or 10 if you  include Coda.  One was a double album.Name 10 songs that any self respect... 
Science that explains why we hear differences in cables?
@akg_ca I don’t think this is about whether cables matter or not - lets agree that they do. Non issue.What this is about (for me, anyway) is that when the protagonist quoted above says that cables matter, they seem to be appealing to some higher p... 
Science that explains why we hear differences in cables?
I am so happy to be corrected as I'm still trying to make sense of this, but despite him "eschewing" traditional theoretical models, isn't it exactly that upon which he relies, despite his protests?Like, gee, even I know about the dielectric aspec... 
Science that explains why we hear differences in cables?
I think its imperative that the theoretical nature of the thing is well understood. That he eschews {avoids} inductance, capacitance, resistance and impedance "dances" in favour of wave model is troubling."his designs are based solely upon the phy... 
What do audiophiles do in their cars?
Cars - the only place digital sounds better than vinyl I haven't tried playing vinyl inside my 1969 Fiat 500 so I'll have to take your word until I figure out the logistics. 
Observation: Passion vs Obsession
Obsession = The joy is destroyed. You have sabotaged yourself by telling yourself "I have to get it". All you want are results, it serves an end. This conclusion is not corroborated with any evidence or analysis.  It is a thought bubble conceiv... 
Supply chain affecting anyone?
Other things besides steel/metal necessary to ongoing supply are plastics, ammonia and cement.  Perhaps incidental, but nevertheless.Requires lots of energy by way of electricity.  Need coal.  Lots.China relies on Australia for thermal coal.  Chin...

The many complex nuances and intricate syncopated rhythms that are often never heard in HM would be revealed in all their magnificence when played on very high end audio system.Do HM disciples actually think that Led Zeppelin was HM? What? 
Supply chain affecting anyone?
Folk in East Germany who wanted to buy a car were put on a waiting list.  Maybe ten years later they might take delivery of a brand new 500cc 2 stroke Trabant, with a body made predominately from recycled material.We're not quite there yet.

@mrklasHumans are flexible and there will be adaption. And the golden rule applies - he who has the gold can make the rules. This is true.  However I find that increasingly it is the bureaucrats with their white boards and regulations who are m...

I'm waiting on some generic gear I ordered from China in July.  It may or may not have something to do with the CCP's current policy about anything and everything to do with the country in which I am domiciled. 
Diminishing returns?
@divertitiIf our brain is not on a linear scale, what scale is it on?What is this "last 5-10%" concept?  Is that also not linear?  Is it iterative, or recursive, or fractal, or exponential?  Or something else?

Me not want to point finger up at member but just suggest that maybe behavior better But you just did.And you know that when you point your finger, three fingers point straight back at you? 
Member Make Zero Sense
@acresverde - in the context of the topic? Possibly some unconscious desire to destroy an otherwise reasonable sentence with a double negative, yeah.  Edit - but I just had another look, and it is actually correct, just poorly constructed.  Where'...

@yuviaroraThanks, OK, that's good to know, very good and comforting general advice.  (anecdote - my SS amp manual is inconsistent anyway  - on one page it says 1.5A, on another page 2A.  I use 2A.)Yes, I had kinda guessed that about amps with glas...
