| Heat in class A equipment Heat as the only enemy to electronics is not as simple as people say. Yes heat is one of the contributing factors to the demise of electronics but the actual failure comes from the heating and cooling cycle. Any good engineer will only use product... | |
| Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like? Here we go again with a post that asks if my listening habits are better than yours. It is now and always should be about the enjoyment of the music. Any way you hear it from any source. If you are listening and enjoying the sound then who cares w... | |
| Words and Sound @millercarbon Is he not like an old Harley that left an oil trail everywhere it went? Why did Harley not make an after market diaper? | |
| Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good I am so glad to see Tull getting some love here. Not only were they great song writers they were great musicians. Their albums were also some of the best produced you will find anywhere. I use Thick as a Brick to tune in my system anytime I make a... | |
| Big Below 15k used that can play loud as heck If all you want is loud with plaster cracking bass and volume get a pair of Bose 901’s, add two subs. This will make your ears bleed with loud bad sound. | |
| Best CD player from this list I would suggest you look at a cd transport so you can incorporate an external DAC. This will allow you to swap out dac’s to get the sound signature you are looking for. | |
| Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good Every Rory Gallager Every Doors Every AC /DC Every Stevie Ray Vaughn | |
| Amplfiers that Sound like Pass 30.8 that are not so heavy Not to be to critical but once you get your system set up at the new location are you not done moving or handling the amp? My amps weigh in at 80lbs each but I have not moved them in years. If I move I will set them up snd then not move for years ... | |
| Class A into Class AB Why over think this and dive into the weeds unless you are going to start a company and build amps. Class A / AB / D / tubes if you can listen to them all and decide what you like and go with it. It is not about class it is about the music and wha... | |
| When to Amp it Up? Don’t have the affaire. You stated “I love my system”. What else could you ask for. Always remind your self that it is about the music first and last. You are about to cheat on your love of music to go and have an affaire with the hot new flame na... | |
| Streaming, Optimization and compromises You will want to look at the company small green computer. They have already addressed these issues. In their process they have concluded that it does not matter how much noise and rf are in the output as once you feed it into fiber as part of the... | |
| amplifier longevity My Sansui 7070 receiver that is ss has been running in my wife's salon for over 25 years never shut off (except power outages). It still works like a champ. This was purchased new in 1978. I think it was the quality of components the used. These o... | |
| The Boss is the Bo$$ Never liked him. Surrounded by good musicians but he him self is way way way over rated and very little talent. I would csll him a performer before a musician every day! | |
| OK-- I think I get it, now... @stuartk The next logical question in the journey is how do I know when a new piece of equipment has moved the needle on my sound? For me it is an easy answer. It was when I heard music that I have listened to my who life that I thought I knew ... | |
| Anybody use a single ended component with one that is balanced? IMO I think it depends on where it falls in the chain. Single end into a pre amp and then balanced out of pre to balanced amp you are getting a full balanced signal in the end. That is the job of a well designed pre amp. Converting a single end si... |
