| How can different CAT5/6 cables affect sound. First of all, it's not "beyond doubt" and the answer to the initial question is, they can't, objectively. | |
| Is More Better? Unless you're setup is in an aircraft hanger, that's crazy overkill, but you do you. | |
| Cryogenic Treatment of Tubes, and why you should not. Cryo'd anything is a marketing scam. Ask an actual metallurgist and they'll straighten it out for you. | |
| CD's or Vinyl? CD. They are much more convenient, last much longer, and most importantly, sound better. | |
| Audio Grade Ethernet Cable Any Ethernet cable is "audiophile grade" because they all simply transmit ones and zeros. The ones that claim to do that better are either lying or uneducated. | |
| COAX Cable Recommendations.... need some glitter Just buy the most expensive one you can afford and let the expectation bias run wild. | |
| Weakest Link in my system... Power Supply, DAC, or... If you've done all that in the space of eight months, why not just enjoy what you have for a while and forget about the need to "improve" anything? | |
| I'm Just Not Hearing It..., Do You??? The self-important types would say if your system isn't resolving enough (read: expensive enough) you won't be able to hear it. I agree with 2psyop, just enjoy the music. | |
| Snake River Audio Signature and Signature AMps series power cords. This reads like a paid advertisement. Also, info without data is just another opinion and reeks of expectation bias. | |
| Audio influencers on YouTube hiding comments from public view IMO, anyone with "influencer" in their job title isn't getting any views or listens from me. Peddle your made up BS somewhere else. | |
| How competitive are you with your system? That's a losing proposition and not healthy. Be happy with what you have and if you want to "upgrade", don't do it out of envy of someone else's stuff. | |
| When using a power conditioner, why is it advised to run amps directly to the wall? For those of you claiming they limit current, did you have a way to actually measure that or was it by what you thought you heard? | |
| Why not the piano as a reference for bass Gimme the bass at about the 9 minute mark of Russia on Ice by Porcupine Tree, audiophile nerds. | |
| Balanced Power Anyone? H | |
| What exactly is critical listening? Who does it? It's trying to find perceived flaws to justify buying something more expensive in the quest for that "perfect"sound. |
