| Speakers The single most critical component OK I‘ll nail my colours to the mast: my primary directive is ’garbage in garbage out‘, with ’weakest link’ lurking in the background.By that I mean that the source should always take precedence, and that a top down hierarchy is justified. However... | |
| Speakers The single most critical component I‘m going to throw in the ‘weakest link‘ philosophy, although I have no personal attachment.A system is only as good as its weakest link. Spending should be directed to ensure that system components are balanced in performance and that no single c... | |
| Speakers The single most critical component Garbage in = garbage out is a red herring.. even entry level source and amps are pretty good.. therefore there is no "garbage in". There is a little bit better in, there is I like the sound of that in a little better than another in, but there is ... | |
| Speakers The single most critical component I find this amusing as the antithesis of the Tiefenbrun ‘rubbush in rubbish out‘ philosophy‘.This debate will rage for as long as audiophiles roam the planet. | |
| Speaker Cables This issue has already been examined in detail by those far more informed than you: do the legwork yourself. If you wish to ignore hard data because it challenges your beliefs so be it. Your exposition of logic beggars belief. I have no more to sa... | |
| Speaker Cables The point I am trying to make is that Ken’s data confirms that you can’t just. throw in a modern film cap in place of an old style electrolytic and expect your frequency response to remain totally in tact. You may get lucky, but I wouldn’t bet on ... | |
| Speaker Cables Between good good film caps perhaps, but between old design electrolytics and film caps, possibly quite significant. Way back when it was being discussed on this thread in some depth, various speaker manufacturers‘ philosophies were examined WRT E... | |
| Turntables.....A point of diminishing returns? It appears you have asked a question as disguised statement. thereby seeking its affirmation. | |
| Speaker Cables This is insignificant in a crossover and can be ignored.interesting post on Audiokarma 12 years ago:Last night, inspired by this thread, I ran a bunch of capacitor curves. I tested six different types from my parts bin, ranging from the cheesiest ... | |
| WHAT IS THE MOST UNIQUE SONG THAT YOU HAVE EVER HEARD? Continuing in the Softs vein, Robert Wyatt singing ‘Gloria Gloom‘ with Matching Mole.https://youtu.be/tyPNZiFJyS0 | |
| WHAT IS THE MOST UNIQUE SONG THAT YOU HAVE EVER HEARD? ’Fish Heads‘ by Bill Mumy of ’Lost in Space‘ fame is hard to top.https://youtu.be/JKDtUzRIG6I Childhood stardom does different things to people........ | |
| Turntables.....A point of diminishing returns? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂excess testerossarone........ | |
| Speaker Cables Bear in mind that if you put a film capacitors in place of an electrolytic, you will generally be lowering its equivalent series resistance (ESR), and thus altering a fundamental characteristic of the crossover which affects frequency response.Whe... | |
| Speaker Cables @jjss49 I second twoleftears suggestion of Duelund for your internal wiring. Check out the PartsConnexion site for various gauges. | |
| Speaker Cables I was trying to make an exaggerated pointIt sounds more like you were perpetuating misinformation shady cable manufacturers are using to sell their wares by attempting to sound knowledgeable. |
