| Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles? Ah magic pebble man. Quick with the ad-homs, quick with the deflections, slow as as a dead tortoise at providing a reasoned argument.So magic pebble man, if the CD is ripped offline, we know the following factually:Reed-solomon error coding will t... | |
| Is there a Solid State amp that can satisfy a SET guy? Depends on the Pass amps. Their amps cover a wide range of musical likes.Those rolled off highs and bloated bass would be speaker dependent as well. techno__dude247 posts06-15-2020 12:01pmYou can try Pass Labs. Some rolled off highs and bloated ba... | |
| Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles? Shhhh ... don't anyone tell Geoffkait, that rip and streaming eliminates real-time CD error correction from the process, and just as 1+1 = 2, if you are doing Reed-Solomon offline, and there are no uncorrectable errors, then it is impossible for i... | |
| Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles? Within the range of human hearing, vinyl delivers a CONTINUOUS stream of sound. And so is the output of a digital audio device. Within the limits of human hearing, a digital output is far more "continuous" than vinyl. Instead of repeating this sta... | |
| Is there a Solid State amp that can satisfy a SET guy? I thought the LSA statement, a tube-pre/SS output was the best amp you have ever heard and it fits your budget? Bit strange to spend $33K on speakers, but place a fairly hard and low limit on the matching amp. mglik78 posts11-06-2008 9:33pmBest am... | |
| Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles? Your original post, in my mind, shows poor character. I can’t respect anyone who needs to create a divide between people in such a childish way.The posts below shows that you don’t understand digital sampling/audio technology, but you are very goo... | |
| Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles? Judging by the serious sound modifying love of "vinyl' I am not sure what they are into, but guessing most don't know what instruments truly sound like in a live space, and many have lost most of the frequency range anyway. If audiophile is the pu... | |
| Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles? No, sokogear, it won't matter how much you spend on a turntable, your character will still not be improved. You are still the same person who would consider a post like this even remotely acceptable, and that you even consider asking the question... | |
| Measuring line noise and power conditioners Well I am not Paul's biggest fan, or the biggest fan of expensive power cords (I think there are better ways to address the purported improvements), the Niagara 1200 is an intelligently designed product. Electrical noise can be insidious and finds... | |
| Measuring line noise and power conditioners Here I quite clearly state, I bolded it for you, what I wrote, that again clearly states AUDIO frequencies and frequencies CLOSE TO AUDIO that can sub-modulate down to the audio band.>>>>Sub-modulate down to the audio band? Are you hi... | |
| Measuring line noise and power conditioners So what was this @geoffkait , lazy reading, excessive trolling of every post I make, or did you not understand what I posted.1) High frequency RF as measured by these EMI toys does not represent well the much harder to filter frequencies on the... | |
| Measuring line noise and power conditioners I understood that you meant AC filtering. I am calling into question the need for the high frequency components on the AC line, other than to maintain the supply rail voltage post rectification. I don't agree that filtering out those frequencies w... | |
| Unbelievable In the framework of "Signal to noise" which is a measurement, cabinet resonances are not noise, but could present as distortion. If you want to be pedantic magic pebble man, resonances induced that are not at the frequency of the stimulus will mea... | |
| Measuring line noise and power conditioners While I don't agree with caycol in totality, a good portion of what he is stating is true at least for audio. In a well designed product, high frequency external RF noise is much easier to get rid of than low frequency noise, i.e. in the audio ban... | |
| Measuring line noise and power conditioners Sorry for all the posts, but this thread is just a wealth of misinformation. Take his 1/2 truth from onfilter.com who is trying to do what? Sell you filtersSome points: Most people add filters to their designed products not to reduce noise gettin... |
