Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
Atma’s are good but overpriced....400 watt Peachtree is 90% there and costs under $3,000 So, you have completed a full costing analysis on all of the necessary inputs (defined very wide) in order to make this comparison? Others may suggest the... 
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
And do some comparisons to some other high end Amps Solid State, Tubes and Class D’s, also in other systems I’ll do a more comprehensive review.   I can’t wait for your precise and articulate tribute. In full knowledge that you may only chang... 
The thing about objectivists is...
Clock designed by human beings. They made up the numbers on it. Birds have no numbers, no clocks. The nests made by birds are sometimes quite magnificent examples of engineering prowess. Lower lifeforms may require advanced mathematical knowl... 
The thing about objectivists is...
I have not read what Kant wrote, but he seems like he could have been a cool dude to spend some time with. The clock says that is is 9am. Is that the truth of what the actual time is? Or just what the clock is suggesting to be the truth, which is... 
The thing about objectivists is...
And further to the above, related to what the woman speaks of, and in the context of what the brain perceives in the frequency domain, there have been many robust studies on this matter over many decades. These are scientific studies.  I'd call ... 
The thing about objectivists is...
Tremendous clip of a gifted teacher speaking about many nuances conveyed in just a few minutes, @hilde45 I have only comment on the minute beginning at about 1.50. In common law this has been an ongoing theme for centuries, and continues to evol...

The act of describing it always diminishes the experience.  Yes, that applies to music as well And that is the thing with objectivists?   Oh, wait..

I managed to distil this reasonably swiftly before deciding all by myself that there will be no ratio decidendi to follow ( and I truncate, correct me if it is wrong to do so) - The problem with objectivists is that listening is not that of any ... 
Is blasphemous Music ok?
I interviewed Larry Norman (quite a known Jesus rocker in his time) after one of his concerts, for publication in a student magazine. He has a song called why does the devil have all the good music? He thought Mick Jagger does good lyric about fu... 
Purifi v Gan amps?
I know people who have been using  and building Class D amps for at  least a decade and they do not like the  sound of the Purifi modules. Amps built with Purifi modules have no sound.  With reference to my previous comments, they may be coupl... 
Purifi v Gan amps?
In the middle are AGD (Gan) amps with a nominal impedance of 40K ohms, and with international electricity capability. Ticks all my boxes, which I am a little bit sad about for reasons.  
Purifi v Gan amps?
compare Purifi based amps eg MarchP422, Purifi etc with Gan amps Probably nothing, or everything. Audiophiles talk about synergy. This is where measurements help, rather than handwaving and guessing. Ralph’s class D amps (Gan) have input of 10... 
What I really hate about some music
If those are the rules they are made to be broken by a skilled individual. The late Jim Steinman was such a one.  
Owning Up To It
My brother-in-law shared how Joe Cocker appeared on stage, took the mic, and proceeded to projectile vomit. The show went on, with interruptions. Probably early 70s. He might have been nervous.  Happens. Being hearsay, the truth of the fact of ... 
Chord DAVE DAC
I recently received an inheritance worth about 13k. I can shell out another 2 grand to get my end-game DAC with headphones. Or...maybe the wife and kids want their bathrooms renovated Is there a wise person at home with a self-confident moral c...
