| How many turntables have you owned? God knows how many over the years, 9 operational | |
| What do modern, current day CD Transports do that older CDP's with RCA digital out don't? we got a new georgehifi here doing politburo manifesto paste jobs the world doesn‘t want to be saved, it wants better sound. Telling people that what they are hearing is delusional just won‘t wash I‘m afraid, especially when they wanted or expect... | |
| For all you Bose 901 Haters! takes me back those ‘Bose is Best‘ days - 901s, 2 big Macs and some zipcord - what more could you want? | |
| CD transports; do they really matter I have the pre-empted thoughts probably best not to have any pre conceptions as they may influence your conclusions. Just go into each listening session session with an open mind. Learn how to listen critically. Ask yourself how the music commu... | |
| Transport Question a case of mass delusion has been detected and corrected by our politburo, take no notice of previous advice and carry on.. | |
| Amp matching with high sensitivity speakers good rule of thumb, but things get a little bit more complicated with high sensitivity full range drivers (don‘t they always) as this article by Nelson Pass will explain: https://www.firstwatt.com/pdf/art_cs_amps.pdf | |
| CD transports; do they really matter Cannot believe a rep would say that about his own products. at least he had the decency to identify himself as such. too much “silent running“ going on | |
| CD transports; do they really matter nobody here has a DAC/PWT synergy or CDT/PWT interaction databse that they can immediately refer to and spit out an answer. These are issues that you can only resolve for yourself by listening. Even if somebody were to give you an answer, how are ... | |
| Amp matching with high sensitivity speakers you won‘t actually damage the speakers with a single ended 300B tube amp unless you are a complete bonehead. They soft clip and sound so flabby and out of control when right over the limit you won‘t want to be listening to them. | |
| Audio nonsense Sometimes the solutions are ahead of their time, my dear departed grandmother used to tell me wondrous tales of electric cars one of the main problems they posed was their ghostly silence.. | |
| Audio nonsense Subscribing to known and accepted maths and physics that have accumulated over the history of human thought is not a belief system. however using it as a means to prevent or thwart experimentation is suggesting that it is capable of describ... | |
| Amp matching with high sensitivity speakers sensitiviity is only part of the equatio - impedance and the way impedance changes over the frequency range also matter. Some tube amps only like medium to high impedance speakers. tKlipsch stated sensitivitiess are notoriously optomistic BTW. No... | |
| Audio nonsense It could improve the sound of some amplifier/speaker combinations, but is probably not necessary in most in some instances it will actually be worse - some manufacturers leave have left zobel networks off their amps on purpose. Certainly no pan... | |
| Audio nonsense Happy delusions to all who believe :) and therefore won‘t uncover their ears ? - shame really dogged belief can both impair sound judgement and stifle innovative thought | |
| CD transports; do they really matter i have Chord DAC which supposedly does the same. Unfortunately I can hear the difference between an average CD player digital out and a good transport, or even a CXC vs a Wadia |
