| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Geoffkait,You stated, "... the velocity of electrons through audio cables, the drift velocity, is actually extremely slow ...". Of course, you are completely correct. My later post where I correct my misstatement was not allowed -- or is just late... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Almarg, You stated, "FWIW, the OPs path is not one that I would personally follow. It suggests the possibility that a multitude of small inaccuracies were both originally present and subsequently introduced, which after a great deal of time and e... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Geoffkait,To keep things simple, when referring to "in the signal path" I am talking about whatever is actually connected to the circuitry of the system.Regarding electrons, of course I misstated this. I should have said the audio signal travels a... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Orpheus10,What have you done since you left Carver behind to attain holography in your system? Would you care to share some of this here? As you so rightly observe, holography -- at a sufficiently high level -- really brings the music alive and ma... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Douglas_schroeder,Thank you for your kind post. It is much appreciated. You have the kind of open mind that I esteem. I think you would be stunned if you sat down and listened to my system. I was brought up as a classical pianist from the age of s... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Onhwy61,There is no inside joke here. Everything is on the table. Those who don't understand -- not my problem. Their loss. I am not selling anything to anyone. I have nothing to sell. I'm not in the audio business or connected to anyone in the au... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Orpheus10,I have read that, with Carver products, you have to sit in a sweet spot or you do not experience the effect. If this is true then it is very different from the holographic effect I experience in my system. You can sit virtually anywhere ... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Orpheus10,You understand exactly what I'm talking about -- being able to reach out and touch vocalists and instrumentalists. It is that feeling of immediacy and aliveness that makes this unique. But you seem to have achieved this level of holograp... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? I think I got it. You mean only one post at a time? I don't see any problem with more than one. | |
| Cable elevators - conventional wisdom wrong? Tbg,I have so many cables that it is impossible to prevent them from touching. I do my best. Getting them off the static tile floor was the biggest challenge. The next challenge is to get them off one another. | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Onhwy61,There are 3 interconnects plus a Bybee product and a Combax product. That makes 5 levels. There are 3 speaker cables plus two Bybee products and one Synergistic Research product. That makes six levels. | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Almarg,This is an interesting observation about tube amps. I am thinking seriously about moving to a tube amp sometime in the future -- if and when I can afford it. | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? I should clarify that you are not lowering distortion by running cable in series, per se, unless you splice in special "tweaks" from Bybee, Combak, Oyaide, etc. This is what I have done all along the line -- two or three cables with "tweaks" splic... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Ebm,I agree, of course. It's very interesting because the common wisdom is that you buy a pair of interconnects and a pair of speaker cables, you connect your power conditioner and components with a single power cord, and away you go. The common w... | |
| What Does Holographic Sound Like? Mapman,This is the key, I believe. Distortion in the AC ruins the sound. With each incremental cleansing of the AC the CD can reveal more of what's there but is otherwise hidden. In my experience, you cannot clean the AC in one stage or even in a ... |
