Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
“ So @scottwheel , you have a BACCH preamp?  And obviously you like?  I may try this before playing with DEQX.  we are in the golden age!  So much good technology! “   I have the BACCH4Mac which runs through an RME Fireface UCX II digital interf... 
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR?
“ Lets cut the chase i have no reason to doubt their methodologies “   cool. So you accept the use of double blind listening tests as a valid protocol. So do I. And when audiophiles can produce repeatable verifiable evidence in the form of doubl...

Anyone has a reference system where amplification is SS ?
“nd that's another advantage of tube electronics. Can you do transistor rolling ?” No. but with tube simulation DSP you can do a lot more than just tube rolling  
Mastering legend Bernie Grundman explains why the measurement crowd has it all wrong!
“Interesting. Does the measuring device hear the same as you or I do? Do you and I hear the same? What if you have lost some hearing and still think you hear accurately? You can measure an audio signal accurately, but accuracy of the music cannot...

“ I don’t put much stock into folks that can’t hear the difference. As long as I can hear the difference that’s enough”   I didn’t ask you to put stock in me. I’m asking you if you put stock in yourself. Do you think *YOU* can reliably identify ... 
Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
“ @scottwheel , what digital system do you use? “   I use a few DSP plugins that are modeled after old classic analog equalizers for flavor and I use the internal EQ on my BACCH SP for correction  
Equalizer in a Hi Fi system
I am seeing a fair amount of discussion on the BACCH SP in this thread. I will chime in with my opinion on it. I think it is arguably the biggest breakthrough in spatial audio playback since the invention of stereo. But the BACCH works best when r...

“how so? If you do not know it by now, I guess you never will.”   does that stop you from explaining it and answering the questions I asked?

“ so that deeper soundstage.  Airy decay. Tighter bottom end bass. It’s all human biology. lol 😂 “   Do you think you can reliably identify these differences in a proper ABX DBT?   
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR?
“human hearing in many ways is not extensively understood or measurable, and there certainly are individual differences...the process is the same, but the results are different...”   based on what? As I mentioned before I try to pay attention t... 
Anyone has a reference system where amplification is SS ?
“Reference system” will only exist the day there is a system that can not be changed improved upon. State of the art playback is subject to personal preferences. If one seeks accuracy then solid state gives us state of the art in accuracy. If one ...

100% in favor of digital EQ
