| Most Important, Unloved Cable... @geoffkait I didn't see your explanation of how the sound keeps playing with Ethernet cable unplugged?I take it you are totally stumped 🤔 ? The reason is ethernet data is transmitted asynchronously to the buffer on demand and when the buffer is lo... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... @geoffkait Just a heads up you misquoted me. I said "Some" not "All" | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... @jinjuku A place to start is forums where those with certain DACs claim a big difference with a reclocker or audio USB bridge.I would have expected at least one person here to be able to accept your challenge but alas nobody is confident enough of... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers Check out two drumming styles - same songhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=U3sMjm9Eloohttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6UdZIh8_xGcWhat a huge huge difference a drummer can make!Which version really swings and makes you tap your foot or move? | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers @lowrider57 +1 Led Zepelin really grooved because Page is a fantastic rhythm guitarist and the drumming accented the guitar. However Bonham often alternates between bass and rhythm guitar as you go from verse to chorus and this is really innovativ... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... @jinjuku   "I don't see, nor have seen any credible hypothesis promoted, how a $700 cable with 8 metal conductors and shield (either floated, full/partial tied) would mitigate this noise vs another like built, 8 metal conductors and shield (eithe... | |
| Dunlavy Minimum Phase Mods Linear Phase is preferable except when high Q filters (aggressive filter) are used. High Q filters can result in audible pre-ringing and a minimum phase filter will have no pre-ringing - so a snare hit will sound more natural with a minimum phase ... | |
| Mono recordings If the original is mono then it is what the artist and producer made at that time. You are hearing the music as others first heard it 50 years ago. For example, a lot of Beatles was only Mono until they went back and remixed several years after.Li... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... I can see how a different cable could make a difference but ONLY with crap equipment. Just consider that there are electrical signals coming in and going out through the ethernet port.If your audio device is crap then presumably the simple act of ... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers Check out this version of Walking on the Moon done in jazz swing rather than one drop reggae!https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zd3c1CPr5ScRhythm is everything! A great vocalist without rhythm is not a musician. Frank Sinatra didn’t have such a great v... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers Oh yeah Jazz and Blues (Rock/folk) require a different mindset. It is hard to switch from Snare and Bass (Blues back beat) to Ride and Hi-hat (jazz). Jazz is all about swing and comping. They both however focus on the One. Reggae is the mind bende... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... @geoffkait Sigh! Yes of course digital propagates as an analog signal. The key is to understand that the threshold between a 1 or a Zero is so large and that checksum and other additional packet error checking information allows a packet of digita... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... @geoffkait  Ethernet is digital. Digital eliminates small analog differences completely. Unless you think that the shape of the bits (rounder 0 and sharper 1) is being affected by directionality, shielding, resistance and capacitance of wire. (Th... | |
| Most Important, Unloved Cable... Since there is no audio clock timing information conveyed over an ethernet cable it can’t make any difference at all UNLESS your gear is crap (something extraneous affected by the cable used like grounding or load or digital noise related crosstal... | |
| Magico S5 vs KEF Blade 2 vs TAD Evo One vs YG Kipod II Sig w/pwr bass I would choose between KEF or the TAD. The others two will be bass flabby (one of your concerns). |
