Beginner audiophile pre-amp/receiver recommendations
Most tuners are digital now-a-days. I’d be more concerned with an A/V receiver when they skimp on the power supply in-order to achieve the beloved 5.1 or 7.1 movie surround sound. The Yamaha I'm referring to is a dedicated stereo receiver and it m... 
Beginner audiophile pre-amp/receiver recommendations
Have to disagree on using a receiver. There is really no difference from an integrated amp as compared to a stereo receiver. The Yamaha R-N803 receiver has excellent sound quality, built-in streamer (Tidal, Pandora, etc), phono input, second room ... 
Question about the potency of various QRT type devices.
vze2r8xz - I have experience with Audio Magic PEAs, QRT Symphony Pros, Nordost QV2s, High Fidelity MC-0.5s, KEMP QA, Akiko Corelli and Synergistic Research tranquility bases. Most importantly, I also have experience with the Perfect Path Technolog...

Yes, Frank exactly! Fleschler and Uberwaltz - agreed. It’s about the music!  Have a good one.

Hi all - This morning I heard a world class violist practicing his solo for a series of concerts this weekend.  As good as we think our stereo systems are they are humbled when compared against the real thing.  The power, warmth and emotion simply...

slaw and jafreeman - I removed all my tweeks before I added the PPT products. I then started adding them back based strictly on listening. I ended-up leaving out and selling my High Fidelity MC-0.5s and Bybee QSE (internal and external versions). ...

Slaw - I took the MC-05s out of my system after putting-in the e-cards and mats. But the Akiko Corelli is staying.  Akiko products work very with the PPT stuff.

Geoffkait - "Why did they two physicists work in a tiny little garage? Because they were quantum mechanics."  Ha,ha :-)

Geoffkait - you have implied throughout this thread that quantum physics explains what is going on with the E-Mats. You've alluded to the WA Quantum Chips, for example, but you don't clearly state anything. You make jokes and act like everything i...

Ethan - I truly would like you to read the links I provided and explain why or why not Spintronics would or would not apply to audio electronics. I think you and Geoffkait are the actual scientists on this thread.

Geoffkait this is what I was referring to as shown above:”A conventional digital electronic system conveys a binary signal (think 1s and 0s) through pulses of electrons carried through a conductive wire. Spintronics can convey additional informati...

I posted this about a year ago trying to explain how I think the PPT products work. Ethan don’t go nuts on me, I don’t claim to be a scientist or have objective measurements of the PPT products.  I’m just trying to add (hopefully productively) to ... 
REST IN PEACE - TIM MROCK
I'm shocked to read that Tim has passed away. I only talked to him a few times but I truly appreciate his passion for and his contributions to this hobby. My condolences Krissy.
