| Speakers sounding dull? MUST READ! The truth about speaker design! @kenjit share with us your superior system you listen to. I assume it is centered around your perfect concrete wall speakers and all of the other components you designed and created by hand? Oh wait. You don’t even own a stereo system. My bad! You... | |
| MQA Declares Bankruptcy MQA isn’t done. They simply entered administration because their backer went dry on cash. They’ll likely be picked up by a new investor. This sort of thing happens all the time. | |
| The problem with PLC As soon as I started reading this nonsense I knew immediately it must be kenjit. The vacuous windbag that claims to know everything, but clearly doesn’t know anything because he doesn’t even own a stereo. There is literally no such thing as the pe... | |
| Are audiophile products designed to initially impress then fatigue to make you upgrade? No idea what you are talking about. You assume people must constantly ripping and replacing gear if they are considered an “audiophile”. I’ve never done this because I’m very careful about my purchases and their synergy in my system. I’ve never bo... | |
| Fee for home audition I would never pay 5% for a frankly worthless 1 hour demo. You need to listen to it for longer than an hour to know if it really sounds good to your ears with various types of music and a DAC pairing(s). For say a $2,500 streamer that’s $125/hour. ... | |
| A SHOCKING DISCOVERY ABOUT DIGITAL AUDIO Op said nothing and contradicted himself. If mp3 are so much better why do you imply cds sound better? Just trying to ruffle feathers by saying nothing. Kenjit has always posted one ridiculous post after another for years. Doesn’t contribute anyth... | |
| What is your experience with amp power? High, clean current is most important. Too often watts are way over stated by a manufacturer and then when hooked up they sound weak. As always, the only way to really know is to place an amp in your system and see how it sounds to your ears. | |
| Low level listening To those in the camp that Magnepans won’t play well at low volumes, I’m willing to bet with a high current amp this wouldn’t be the case. My fully restored/upgraded Apogee Acoustics Duetta II Signature are pretty inefficient, but still sound incre... | |
| Name 3 songs where audio quality and song quality completely align Most any album by Eva Cassidy; Grateful Dead - Dark Star (Live at Winterland, 1973), Grateful Dead, Celebrating Jerry Garcia (engineering and song version are all exceptional on this album, including one of my all time favorites - Morning Dew (Liv... | |
| going from tube preamp to solid state I’m really surprised no one asked - What amp are you currently using? The synergy between the amp and preamp is very important. Personally, I wouldn’t consider a tube amp and solid state preamp. Frankly, I don’t recall an instance when someone was... | |
| "Audiophile" Power Cables: The Greatest Audio Conspiracy Theory of All Time? God, so over the back and forth on this subject. Use your own ears. If you hear no difference in your system return them and move on. There is a big grey area between the two warring ends of the spectrum that I and many others reside in. Generally... | |

| Ozzy is done It was clear he has Parkinson’s decades ago. I watched my grandfather deteriorate over time with this disease. He talked about how he was seeing stars and outer space. Not a good way to go. Brain literally turns into sand. | |

| Why does pulling out main speakers from wall improve sound? Depends on the speaker design. My Apogee full range ribbon speakers are dipole. So sound comes out of the front and back equally. For this reason, they should be between 3-6 feet off the back wall. The entire range of sound sounds better, more air... |
