| Best Male Singers of the 20th Century Boy George, George Michael, Freddie Murcury, oh wait you said men. Never mind. | |
| Review: Pass Labs Aleph ONO Preamplifier Since writing this review I have purchased a 5 meter pair of Purist Audio Design Proteus ICs to run between the amp and pre-amp. The upper octave roll-off I experienced is nolonger there. For whatever reason the PAD ICs have eliminated this. If yo... | |
| Review: Purist Dominus Interconnect I am currently breaking-in a 5 meter pair of Purist Proteus. This is one model down from the Dominus. Watch this space for updates if you are interested. | |
| Speaker priority: high or low??? I never considered the "Speakers are the most important because they are the most flawed" philosophy. There is merit to this.Squidboyw (Is he really fat?) throws the interesting spanner into the works. Comments like this have been made in the past... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Sometimes this site is better than a Marx Brothers movie, and I do mean the better ones. I have owned lots of CD players, maybe too many. I guess they all must have had either the wrong DACs or just plain bad DACs. None of the CD players I have ow... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. I love the distortion I get with my SS amp. I went through several SS amps before I got just the right distortion. I would buy tubes if I could get the compressed lifeless sound they have before breaking-in and the dulled sound when they are on th... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck I find SACDs and especially CDs disappointing in comparision to vinyl. I have a $3500 SACD player and when I do direct comparisions with music I have on both formats the SACD falls short. CDs are fine for having something on to listen to while you... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Audioengr, if you listen to .wav files how much further could you still lower your standards? I have sacd and find it to be disappointing compared to analog. The sound doesn't compare. All the rest of those formats are dramatically poorer, so why ... | |
| Biggest Baddest Audio Cables The best ICs I ever heard were a 3.5 meter pair of Purist Dominus. Nothing I have owned or heard sounded as good as these cables. Everything, every aspect of the sound was dramtically better than anything I heard till that point. They are very exp... | |
| Why Expensive power Cables when Romex behind Wall? The reason is simple: They sound better. Have you listened to a better power cord yet? | |
| What music is not derivative? I think Kthomas is right. The Beatles weren't even that original. Lots of groups did the same things, they got the recognition. It's all in the marketing. I get the feeling most of the best and original music will never be recorded or heard by the... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck You guys are way out of my league. I am not an electrical engineer but isn't it silly to talk about $300 cables on $30,000 systems. I'm pretty sure no one is talking about a disparity like this. I guess I was assuming a certain level of quality th... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck I'm afraid I've created a monster! | |
| SEPT 11? It's hard to argue with the statement that as a nation we delude ourselves into thinking we are both strong and safe. Poland allowed herself to be caught unaware. Everyone knew what was happening in Germany, Hitler made no pretense about rearming.... | |
| SEPT 11? 6chac, God is not male or female, and there can only be one God. Since His own word uses masculine pronouns I feel no need to bend to the whims of political corectness. I'm not sure I understand your question because you obviously mistyped it. |
