Doesnt resistance mean same as impedance??
     As noromance put it:      Resistance = DC      Impedance = AC      SIMPLY: the semantics applied by the scientific community to measuring electrical flow, as concerns those two types of current and their performance through conductors.   ... 
Doesnt resistance mean same as impedance??
     "Impedance is resistance which changes with frequency whereas simple resistance is constant with frequency."      There is NO frequency with DC, which is WHY, "resistance is constant".      With ONLY a single strand of solid wire: passing a... 
Static electricity affecting sound reproduction. Please help!!
     The OP mentioned having a typical household humidity of, " ...around 38 – 41% which is not too bad."      Well, here’s the Science and why I said, "Get a humidifier!":                    https://www.est-static.com/static.php      Try for t... 
Doesnt resistance mean same as impedance??
                                      As mentioned, perhaps: easier to digest? ie: https://www.audioholics.com/loudspeaker-design/understanding-impedance-electrical-phase and: https://www.audioholics.com/loudspeaker-design/understanding-impedanc... 
Static electricity affecting sound reproduction. Please help!!
     +1 for, "Get a humidifier!"  
An excellent paper on routing cables to avoid interaction and noise injection.
     Was there something to read, in the original post? Didn’t show up, here.      At any rate: if one considers the low voltages/currents we’re dealing with, as regards the typical system’s interconnects; the Inverse Square Law works nicely, wit... 
Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like?
     It’s been my experience, if one desires (generally) good (sometimes: excellent) venues (acoustically) and a live music experience, of diverse genres, without breaking their budget; doing an online search for local college campuses, with conce... 
Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like?
     A little something, of which most are unaware, regarding some of those, "...unamplified Classical concerts...", here:                   https://www.orchestra-innovation.org/osires  
line level crossover for subwoofer
     The people that brought us the venerated Dahlquist DQ-10, manufactured a crossover that did absolutely minimal damage, to one's high-pass signal.    ie: https://sites.google.com/site/mpbarney/home/dahlquist-dq-lp1       The old (quite liter... 
Is it a semiconductor?
     The following is the treatise I meant to link, in my initial response (OOPS). https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/computer-science/silicon-dioxide-sio2         The other = Welcome to the Dept of Redundancy Dept (SHEESH)!   
Is it a semiconductor?
     More, regarding Quartz and electricity:  https://www.explainthatstuff.com/piezoelectricity.html      To me: the above (piezoelectric effect) more closely describes that resonator's function, from a VERY cursory read of your link.  
Is it a semiconductor?
     Quartz is used widely, in the semiconductor industry. ie: https://www.google.com/search?q=quartz+semiconductor&oq=quartz+semiconductor&aqs=chrome..69i57j0i512j0i22i30l8.6564j0j15&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8      Quartz is made ... 
Modern "Vintage" Sounding Preamps
@musicfan2349 -      Thought I was being pretty clear, but: the SP-11's signal path contains metalized, plastic film caps and wire-wound resistors, which (in my opinion) aren't, "vintage" parts.    It does have some older-tech components, in the ... 
Modern "Vintage" Sounding Preamps
@musicfan2349      Just my take:      Though my response was how to obtain the sound signature in general; the OP already owns a CJ PF-1, loaded with wire-wound resistors and metalized plastic film capacitors, as is your SP11 (NOT a, "vintage" (... 
Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money?
      With ALL due respect:      The cult of the Naysayer Doctrine, wants you to accept their revelations, by faith (ie: YOUR senses and mental faculties are worthless and deceitful).         You MUST follow their precepts, or- be eternally DAMN...
