| Please Make Audiogon Cool Where I find that happens on Internet forums is where their degree is not in the actual field being discussed. Having a chem-eng degree does not make you an electrical engineer for instance (and vice versa of course). Unfortunately success in one ... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool Who is "the rest of us" ... asking for a friendteo_audio1,151 posts10-22-2019 7:42pmTo the postulating and posturing engineering sycophant who is searching desperately for windmills in the mirror of ego: It would be highly appreciated by the rest ... | |
| How to A/B Test Power Cables & Interconnects? I am not an electrician either, though was once fairly handy with the electrical code, but that was a while ago. Just went down to my panel, as expected, I have a dual single pole breaker that both trip at the same time (not a common 2-pole), howe... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool The second most important piece of equipment, after the speakers, is the room.Went to an audio show on a weekend ... room after room after room of disappointing and very very expensive systems. $30,000+ of Nordost, a $50,000 turntable, $100,000 of... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool I will let Geoffkait hijack ...... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool I have yet to see any "evidence" or "facts" presented, as least what would qualify as evidence or facts from an engineering / scientific stand point (you know, something that could stand up in court, or a scientific paper ... I changed it and I t... | |
| How to A/B Test Power Cables & Interconnects? By code, they (grounds) have to be all connected at the panel to a single bus-bar do they not?Perhaps obsolete, and I wonder if regional, but I am still seeing more metal boxes even in new construction, in north east U.S. and Canada, but pretty mu... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool You know Erik_squires, there is one thing that would make these forums, and most audio forums better. I am okay with being anonymous, in today’s "cancel culture" I don’t blame people.However, I think if people have to clearly state whether they ea... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool See Erik,I rest my point. Any actual engineers and scientists in the audio field, are quickly turned off by stuff like this, which has no basis in fact, for which the author will be unwilling and unable to support with evidence ....With confirmati... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool WHAT CAN BE ASSERTED WITHOUT EVIDENCE,CAN BE DISMISSED WITHOUT EVIDENCE.Your argument is easily dismissed as you have no evidence to support your position, nor are you willing to provide evidence via proving your claim. Report thisgeoffkait17,625 ... | |
| How to A/B Test Power Cables & Interconnects? That part is easy. Just bring your two home runs into the same junction box connecting the ground from each to the J-box metal, and then to each receptacle. | |
| How to A/B Test Power Cables & Interconnects? If you have separate junction boxes for the receptacles, then I would assume the grounds are different (at the receptacle). All equipment has either intentional capacitive connections and/or parasitic connections from internal circuitry to case-gr... | |
| Something For The Fuse Guys ... They will also steer you away from things that don't improve your listening experience. | |

| Dedicated Power Line Project You mean dimming the lights is not a feature? :-)Your main feed (200A?) is likely 2/0, so even if it is 500 feet to the pole, that 75 feet of 14A is doing way more damage. Some amplifiers have excellent power supply rejection and can tolerate this... |
