Power cord upgrade To classicrockfan: You are 100% correct. As long as a power cord is thick enough to handle high current, any such a cord is good. The cheaper, the better. Power code can not affect audio sound quality (maybe 1 - 2%?). I have Vienna Mahler sp... | |
Refurbished / Re-tipped Cartridges - Are they worth Buying? I don't understand why some people still spend their effort to the expensive phono cartridge. The LP becomes sound-poorer as played (physical contact so wearing out). No matter with excellant phono system, the sound becomes worse as you play the L... | |
Power Cord for Accuphase Amplifier To anyone: First of all, can anyone tell how the good power cable is better than not-so-good cable, in terms of scientific description? (rather than "feeling better, ...", "just really better") If you are not old (younger than 50 years old), the... | |
New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound? "lordrootman" We should agree to what "lordrootman" said/thought. Even $100 power cord is not necessary. I love to listen to music, not snake-oil like expensive gears. When you put an expensive part to your audio system, your brain has already... | |
What if a high end speaker measures really badly? Someone said: "If it measures badly and sounds good, it is good. "If it measures good and sounds bad, it is bad." That may be true. No, not true. Never! If you feel good even if poor measurement, your listening comprehension is not perfect tho... | |
Records not stored vertically for decades Just play the LPS. If it sounds ok, it is ok. So simple, just ply!. LPs are not the best audio format, so I do not spend any extra energy with the LPs. Maybe, somebody, emotionally, thinks the LPs very valuable. But, not me, though I do have >... | |
Preamp - what's the purpose? there was once a description of sound. American sound and British sound. am. sound = big scale, br. sound = detailed. americans like exaggerated sound such as boomy, more bass. this is not true to the original music. cooked fish with no sauce... | |
Upgraded my cables and they transformed my system!!! not angry. simply because we don need to support any manufacturers who sell over-priced products! | |
Selling here on Audiogon if you think the listed prices are not reasonable, do not buy them. then, the dealers' items will expire. then, listed again, expired, ... this is one of the ways to make prices reasonable. | |
Upgraded my cables and they transformed my system!!! everybody is talking about unnecessarily expensive cables without scientific data/proof. all audio components are made of signal transfer lines (also kind of cables) internally. so, why not changing/upgrading the internal cables? DO NOT WASTE A... | |
Experiences With Costly Balanced XLR Interconnects Above $3,000 I am very happy to find there is a person who is really sensibly correct. The person is "rtorchia". I wish everybody should be like him! Therefore, unnecessarily-expensive audio components will be perished from the Earth! | |
DAC as pre amp input impedance: preamp = usually 47k power amp = >20k inexpensive cd player output = 100 - 200 direct connection (cd + power amp) 200 ohm/ 20k ohm = 1/100 no meaningful signal loss @ low and high frequency regions... | |
DAC as pre amp carlsbad2 = this man said it absolutely right. pre-amp = long time ago, when only phono signal was only a source (with am, fm radios), the signal was too weak, so pre-amplification was needed before any power amp. no more we need the pre. b/c an... | |
power cable Basic cables with good shield and copper thickness (also basic prices, e.g. $20 -30 per cable) are NOT WORSE than $1,000/cable! Let's think the cable as water pipe at home. Do you think 100% pure real gold pipe can give you exotic water, which ca... | |
power cable Unless current power cables are of poor quality (e.g. very thin, or noise-prone), you will not hear any difference. That's true based on physics. However, the new cable may give you better sound based on imperfect human-being nature, which tends t... |
