| Tube versus SS Jond, this has nothing to do with tubes versus SS, that should have been tubes versus digital, but in regard to the essence of my post, it's primarily about the "grid" and the overall improvements I'm enjoying in everything. It's also about new 69... | |
| Tube versus SS Even though I can't hear as well as some, (old age) I listen better than most. While I live in a quiet neighborhood, I can tell there must be commercial activities beyond my neighborhood that affect our "grid"; it could be a lot larger than I thi... | |
| Tube versus SS The "jivest" power supply is on the computer. I tried to figure out a way to improve that, but there just isn't enough room, can't be done.That power supply has been improved by the improved incoming AC. I also down-load my LP's to hard drive. ... | |
| Tube versus SS Battery power is the best.I first wrote about this in March; that means your rig was improved at that time, by now you've gotten accustomed to the improvements. | |
| Tube versus SS Thank you David, you are also one of the few who know why the high end is so high, and why the word "Minutiae" is so big. | |
| Tube versus SS Why are many of the most expensive preamps 2 box units? Do they have two boxes just to impress you? Of course not, they have one box exclusively devoted to turning AC into DC for the signal section.Why do those who understand these things pay so... | |
| Tube versus SS On the serious side of this equation, I was listening to some recordings I had made on reel long before this COVID 19 thing, and compared them to some recent recording using the same identical records and equipment, and I noticed the recent record... | |
| Tube versus SS Since audio equipment is dependent on AC that must be turned to DC in order to operate, the quality of the AC is a very important factor.Many "observant" people have noticed that on holidays, and late night their rigs sounded better. They observe... | |
| Tube versus SS Millercarbon, it's primarily commercial activity that causes wild AC. I'm thinking AC being turned to DC for audio equipment, and I know exactly how it works. Since you're comparing it to purifying water, maybe you're the one who doesn't know ho... | |
| Tube versus SS While I was thinking "Tube versus SS" it should be "Analog versus Digital". | |
| Jazz for aficionados dramatictenor119, and hypoman8, I want to compliment you both on your very good taste in jazz; I have both of those in my collection.Since words fall short on communicating music, it's our custom to post the link that displays the music under disc... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Trying to get this bunch on one subject is like "herding cats". I think I'll try herding cats; "Git along you little doggies"; or I mean you little pussies. (that didn't come out right). Anyway, you get the idea. | |
| Jazz for aficionados This was recorded in 1947; so there were some recordings made in the 40's that I liked; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnrYk1pq12I | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I'm not fond of jazz from the 40's, but if you take the very same musicians and put them in the 50's, I can dig them and the music. (don't feel like analyzing that at the moment) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DmtPvFa_W8 |
