| The science of opinion ... @duckworp- " What always amazes me is the question as to what motivates these people? Why do so many people want to spend their short life telling people that they are buying snake oil and telling them to do double blind tests and repeating this a... | |
| What is your favorite budget audio component? Tough crowd! | |
| Are there any current high end dipole speakers (dynamic)? If you can: audition Spatial Audio and/or Emerald Physics systems. You won’t regret it! http://www.spatialaudio.us/products and https://www.emeraldphysics.com/categories/panel-speakers No connection, outside of being a very happy, EP owner. | |
| Placette RCV Passive Pre between pre and power amplifiers? btw: Think about the extra interconnect pair(s, depending on configuration), if you leave the ARC pre, in the system. More connections and wires, never seem to help one's presentation. | |
| Placette RCV Passive Pre between pre and power amplifiers? What George said, +1. I had a Placette Passive Linestage and loved the transparency, over the ARC SP9 and SP14, that came before, though neither did anything, "wrong". The only problem I had, with the passive, related to the inefficiency of ... | |
| Something For The Fuse Guys ... So many deleted posts! Did someone get embarrassed? Never mind(I’m certain: I didn’t miss anything important)! | |
| Interconnect Directionality Gee, Bobbie disapproves of me. Still laughing! | |
| speaker break in Not that I’m a fan of Klipsch, but- they may have a valid opinion on the subject, given they’ve been in the game for a while: https://www.klipsch.com/blog/how-to-break-in-a-speaker#targetText=After%20about%20100%20hours%20of,while%20others%20can%2... | |
| Interconnect Directionality Nothing but ASSumptions and excuses. No comprehension Pathetic, yet laughable! | |
| Interconnect Directionality Typical of robertcon’s knee-jerks and hubris, to fail to comprehend/totally miss the point of my post(beside adding to Geoff’s list of modern history’s highly debatable subject matter). I’ll bet robertcon never got past the date of the article.... | |
| I'm having a really hard time with: "Power cable reduced my soundstage"... robertcon- "Remember that all magic is an illusion." Prove it! OH, wait; you can’t categorically prove that statement, because all you have are theories and opinions(well, then there’s your blinding hubris). | |
| Interconnect Directionality Then there’s: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-is-the-current-scien/ I especially like the first three sentences, of the last paragraph. | |
| Interconnect Directionality robertcon- " Your lack of knowledge of how to design experiments to eliminate bias does neither validates your last statement NOR invalidates the fact that it is the pundits who need to take said blind tests and prove they can hear a difference ... | |
| I'm having a really hard time with: "Power cable reduced my soundstage"... Still there, captbeaver? "May be boring but no one has answered the McIntosh amp cord question...." You asked:: "My McIntosh amp has a permanently attachehed power cable that is a off the shelf product. Is their design faulty? Are th... | |
| Interconnect Directionality robertcon- " There is an assumption (often a self assumption) that certain "audiophiles" have golden ears, and hence they use all these "tweaks" because they have super-human hearing and can hear differences the rest of us cannot. The reality is... |
