| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts cd318By the way prof I understand your zip cord is obviously phenomenal sound wise, it must be because you told us, but is it directional (just in case), and what insulation material does it use? All that stuff doesn’t matter. I mean, it’s always ... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts The fact remains that there are indeed differences between metals, and geometries, and insulators, and even things like cryo. Differences that can be heard. But not by everyone. A lot of guys simply have not yet developed the requisite listening s... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts geoffkait,If you ever manage to produce anything other than a strawman when blind testing comes up, perhaps a fruitful conversation could occur. | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts So, clearthink, you accept the in-principle validity of blind testing? Good.If that's the case, then you personally would not fit the profile of the pure subjectivist I'm referencing. Note that many purely subjectivist "golden ears" reject it. ... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts Slooow dooowwn clearthink....Well here you assume that a blind test is absolute, incontrovertible, undeniable, unfalsifiable proof which is an error No, I never said any such thing. I have been very careful over many posts on these subjects to poi... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts Cable debates. You’re gonna miss em when they’re gone.You mean when we finally (presumably) move to fully wireless systems in the future?It won't make the inherent debate go away.One may have thought we'd have moved on when we moved to digital cab... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts clearthink,What you have failed to think clearly about is this:The point is the Golden Ear makes his claim UNfalsifiable. He protects himself from ever being shown to be wrong.In contrast the "Lead Head" (as you call them) who doubts the claim of ... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts @oldhvymecWell at least you got that part right..You can't hear it, so I can't possibly hear it. So your right and someone else is wrong... You took long time to say it, and not very clearly I might add.Nowhere did I argue "I don't hear it so you... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts BTW,While some of the claims made in the OP seem reasonable, given what I've seen other engineers (who aren't selling cables!) say on the subject:1. The "points" made against "cable myths" in the OP still tend to constitute mere counter claims wit... | |
| 10 Audio Cable Myths and Facts Human beings who care. Blow away the meters every time. All day long.Ah, the siren call of the Golden Ear. "My powers of perception transcend your puny meters and science!"How self-satisfying that must feel to believe. How hard it must be to even... | |
| I sure miss my Quad ‘57s! I gave up on my Quad ESL 63s in the late 90's and don't miss them.I'm definitely a dynamic speaker guy but I WOULD like to own a pair of ESL 57s as well. I like them better than the 63s (though, ultimately, not as much as some dynamic speakers). | |
| Thiel Owners My 2.7s certainly are helping me get through the home isolation. They are a wonderful conduit for food-for-the-soul music. | |
| If you want to use omni's you need a lot of room. False.I owned MBLs in a 13x15 room and they worked great.among hhe best sound I ever experienced were big MBL 101D in a shoe-box sized room- well treated. | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Thanks erik. I admit I’m still somewhat in the weeds though, as I guess you can’t give a definitive answer and it will be just a play-and-try situation.I have just been a bit worried if the new model was "harder to control" in the bass region or s... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 @erik_squires In the measurement section of of JA's review of the updated Perspective 2Graphene, JA makes this comment:the Perspective2’s plot of impedance magnitude and electrical phase against frequency (fig.1) suggest that the speaker is an eas... |
