Holo Audio Spring (Kitsune version)
Tried the Denafrips Ares R2R DAC which I thought sounded really nice, especially for the price, basically about the cost of 3 of the BB1704UK original R2R ICs :-) if one can find the originals anymore.The Denafrips had some user interface deficien...

THE GREAT AC OUTLET SHOOTOUT.
No unfortunately not - looked for this one a few days ago - where did you find it ?  Anyway this came to be of interest again a few weeks ago under a tread about Furutec AC outlets and I did resurrect the "shootout"  I'm in need of a PLC program f... 
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously?
Theophile,Possibly, however these are Vintage DD tables and the OP of this tread specifically discuses the possibility that no repair of such is possible should they break.  My postings should clearly communicate that repair certainly is possible ...

Furutech AC Receptacles
Geoff,  Have absolutely no "angst" as you describe it, lets say the test reveals that there is ZERO difference on outlets - and  all your cooky "theories" about directionally of fuses etc are dismissed. So why don't you write the program and actua... 
Furutech AC Receptacles
Geoff,Because this would actually be a controlled test and if there is any repeatability this will clearly manifest it self. If the claim is to have any credibility then repeatability is a must. I know that something structured and with logic is n...

Furutech AC Receptacles
hdm and Hudson,As mentioned in a post above I did start a test per say of AC outlets some years ago, just never finished it, all missing is a program for the Allen Bradley PICO controller PLC.  The idea is that a complete system will be hardwired ... 
Furutech AC Receptacles
Cerberus,Your observation is somewhat correct, only difference being that something like this is easily, or at least somewhat easily demonstrable.  I sincerely doubt that any of the folks that claim to hear a difference between a " broken - in" an...

Who makes coax speakers?
RF,I don't know yet what Madisound will charge for the kit Driver cost is $806 for a stereo pair (4 woofers and 2 coax drivers). Typically crossover components cost is about equal to driver cost so I'm guessing at $1500 to $1600.  Then what ever y...

Lewm,Reason being that the DN308 is a very large machine, overall dimensions are 23.5W x 18.5D x 9.5T weight is 140 lbs.   I did toy around with the layered wood approach it just became too big IMO.   Its a VERY substantial machine as is both Top ... 
Furutech AC Receptacles
Lak,Some years back I wanted to conduct an AC outlet test made up a fancy jig holding 10 different AC outlets  all switchable with relays via a PLC , never got around to making a program for it though.  The switching was to be done via a remote an...

Cerberus79,The Break'in of an AC outlet,  ac cord, etc. is  imaginary i.e it exist only in the brain of the person hearing it - so to  them its "real" :-)Good ListeningPeter
