| KEF LS50 Wireless Internal vs External DAC ?? I believe the analog signal on the RCA ports is run through an ADC, processed by the digital filters and then by the internal DACs. Quite possibly they will sound different but it's not because you are bypassing the internal DACs. | |
| Directionality of wire geoffkait:It is illogical to say that "electricity" or current or voltage is an electromagnetic wave ...>>>>While you may think it's illogical, electrical energy transfer still happens through the electromagnetic field. The paper I ref... | |
| Directionality of wire If somebody is interested in the math of electrical energy flow in cables, this is a good article in Am. J. Phys. (it's possible to read the paper without following all the math):http://depa.fquim.unam.mx/amyd/archivero/El_flujo_de_energia_de_una_... | |
| Directionality of wire geoffkaitThere is no law saying photons can't travel in copper. In fact it's the physical non symmetry of the copper ITSELF that gives rise to directionality. Hel-loo!>>>>>Indeed there is. The laws are called Maxwell's equations and... | |
| Directionality of wire Assuming you are serious :-)I'm distinguishing between the electron motion, which, of course happens inside the conductor, and the flow of energy that powers, e.g., the speakers. The latter is carried by the electromagnetic field that is generated... | |
| Directionality of wire Manufacturers of "directional" cables argue that it is the direction of the energy flow that is important (from wall to power amp, from power amp to speakers etc). This way they can market their AC power cables, speaker cables etc. They convenient... | |
| Directionality of wire You can easily roll your own directional speaker cables. Just add two diodes to each cable -- one diode in series with each of the two wires. For the ultimate effect, orient them in the same direction (say, with the arrows pointing away from the a... |
