I have perfected my network for the nth time
@kennyc  Thanks for your comments. I spent another evening with the upgrade and sat there completely slack-jawed at the fundamental beauty of the musical presentation. For me to listen to Sgt Peppers for the zillionth time and get new understandin...

Daily Gibberish from singinng   1. Last night I was working my way through Haitink / Bruckner Symphony 6 / 24-96 files from analogue tape on Qobuz. As I concluding the symphony I thought that that sounded familiar. I went to my LP racks and sure... 
Does anyone have experience with Reavon universal disc players?
I was number 4 in the que and therefore one of the first purchasers of the middle model which is a transport. Build quality: The drawer is a flimsy wobbly affair that may end up on your listening room floor any day. The drive mechanism clanks and...

Daily Gibberish of singingg   Today there are a couple of topics I want to address, and unfortunately, a couple that I do not. Onward.   The recording that I used in the ethernet cable tests (yes, I actually did testing on my own time, 10 an...

Daily Gibberish from singingg @fynnegan Hello sir. Yes the Bridge recording of the Eliott Carter Horn Concerto is a masterpiece. When doing the cable testing I got to listen to it many times and often let it play through because it is so good. I...

Many thanks to @fredrik222. Your input was most welcome and informative! In an ethernet cable the wires and pins have an assigned duty. If you are designing an audiophile cable that will sound better, you have to take wire directionality into acc...

@fredrik222 Your diagram did not load. I am most curious to look at it. Maybe you can answer my question: in an ethernet cable are the same wires always assigned to output and input, or are the duties randomly applied by equipment designers? Th...

@audphile1    I have no doubt that was the case. My silver disc player is an Esoteric, which I highly recommend.

@audphile1  No foul. However if my 16/44.1 streaming matches the sound quality of my silver disc player, I'll see you at the dragstrip. Best of 3?

Time to catch up. Let’s address a few points as best as we can.   The subject that has everyone’s knickers in a bunch is ethernet cable direction. Since I stumbled onto the topic and confirmed it for myself I have continued to think about it. ...

Let me reiterate : You either do or you don’t, or you are too lazy to try. I will not be further baited on the subject. Have a nice day.

Let me add my WOW to all the other Wow's. I did not realize the I was dropping a neutrino-bomb on the forum. I think the dust has settled sufficiently for me to respond.   First of all I am making no claims that necessitate belief. This is just ...
