| Is it possible to transfer analog tone and soundstage of vintage reel to reel to digital. Oh great, you can quote Wikipedia ... so cute when people who have never done anything related quote Wikipedia. Applying compression at the end of the process during mastering is but one aspect of loudness wars, and even then, depending on who is ... | |
| Is it possible to transfer analog tone and soundstage of vintage reel to reel to digital. I think you have your answer already in the last 4 words of your statement. It is all in the mixing, and what you like is the mixing. The format is secondary in this case.Sam here again. I have a hi-res digital rip of the rolling stones sticky fi... | |
| Preamp and impedance question If it only dips to 7ohm, then it will be just fine but the speaker is only part of the equation. The crossover will have an influence too. I don't know what they speaker does at the frequencies for the subwoofer. There will be some influence from ... | |
| Preamp and impedance question The output impedance of tube amplifier with a transformer is a function of the (output impedance of the amplifier section multiplied by the turns ratio) ^2 (squared). The 4 ohm tap has less total turns, so it has lower output impedance (higher d... | |
| Big source improvement using CD player Or you could join the world in 2020, and realize that what was true in 1992, when flash memory was $100/megabyte, ram was $30-40/megabyte, and a good DSP was at least $20-30 is not the same world as today, when I can get all that for a couple doll... | |
| Fletcher-Munson - Random Variables and You I think what you are describing Mijostyn is not phase sensitivity but out of phase cancellation of two distinct sources. This is usually a worse issue when subs are colocated with the mains. | |
| Big source improvement using CD player I am not the one making the easily proven hypothesis for which you can offer no proof. Don't blame me for that. That is on you. | |
| Big source improvement using CD player Except the error correction is designed to correct up to 4000 bit burst errors, hence why you have 0 tests or data to support your hypothesis even though this data would be ridiculously easy to obtain for almost free if not free. Without scratches... | |
| Big source improvement using CD player Ignore me all you want, but that doesn’t change that a buffered and reclocked output negates timing issue in a low cost transport not to mention the way that error correction does work, not the way you claimed it does negates almost all errors exc... | |
| Big source improvement using CD player Georgehifi,You are just digging A bigger and bigger hole. Jitter is not remotely the same as uncorrectable read errors. A buffered and reclocked CD player using a $20 mechanism will be near jitter free within the limits of the interconnect method ... | |
| Fletcher-Munson - Random Variables and You People are different, and yet when Toole and Harmon did their big study on speakers, there was a really high correlation for preference. Most people, liked almost exactly the same thing, or at least rated the same things as "superior" for audio qu... | |
| Big source improvement using CD player So let me get this right. You think that an optical output using AT&T high speed glass fiber somehow has an impact on the error rate reading off the mechanism. Well then, there is probably not much use of further discussion. Posting pictures o... | |
| Big source improvement using CD player If only there was a way of showing what the correctable and uncorrectable error rate coming off a CD rip or similar was available .... oh right, there is. Fancy words, easily proven correct. So .... let’s have it. I am sure you have lots of data t... | |
| Big source improvement using CD player For those that are interested when there is a bit-error, or even multiple bit errors, I do suggest reading about how it works, not the inaccurate guess stated below. Interpolation only occurs when errors cannot be corrected. There are multiple lev... | |
| Big source improvement using CD player This is not remotely how error correction works. There are many errors correction levels and it is most certainly not a "guess". The only time data is interpolated is after all the error correction fails which is very rare if the disk does not hav... |
