Big source improvement using CD player
This is what you said "sunshine". You started by dissing something for no reason other than uninformed bias. Who is trying to look good?Sorry, but that thing just uses a cheap $20 slot load media disk spinner, like thisTry going back to a real CD ... 
Big source improvement using CD player
The difference in sound quality between a good CD player and a really expensive CD player is not the mechanism. I will state again, that unless it has significant scratches, error corrected CDs are bit accurate representations of what is put on th... 
Big source improvement using CD player
If there is buffering and reclocking after the mechanism, then a $20 mechanism is going to do just fine. Uncorrectable bit error rate is very low to 0 on CDs without substantial scratches, even with a cheap transport. georgehifi7,194 posts06-05-20... 
Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer?
wolf,I would have one advocacy for measurement. Every few years, someone brings up the very good, but 0 traction idea of playback calibration, usually including reference tones and reference playback level so that the user can listen at the volume...

Best improvement for the buck
Audiomaze,I can't comment on the swarm which is a specific model of bass array, but conceptually bass arrays are much easier to integrate into most listening rooms versus, well almost anything else. If you have the money and space, you can use roo... 
Too good a post to waste
You know he lists his Linkedin profile as doing work for them? No doubt an exit strategy for him as he gets older, and an easy opportunity to increase margin and exposure for them. More power to them. I stopped feeling guilty about taking advanta...

Too good a post to waste
Isn't Galen now doing work for Blue Jeans? ..... just sayin.With the exception of the ground wire, I am going to go out on a limb and say that pretty much none (or very close to it), can even communicate why a larger gauge would be better for low ...

How does adding a second subwoofer improve your systems SQ?
Maybe I am, maybe I am not, maybe I am just here to trigger the Pet Audio Rock dude. The universe is so complex, perhaps we will never know will we. Just remember, my words are but a conduit to aid you in making yourself look less relevant than I ... 
Too good a post to waste
And this is why we still have millions and millions of people who believe the Earth is flat, because the "measurements" don't line up with what they think they perceive.Not if you care about accurate repeatable results. You have already jumped to ...
