It is not you, the sound really is getting worse
Dialogues in movies soundtracks on discs have issues. It’s a well known fact. Most people setting up their home theater systems raise the center channel by 4 to 6 dB. Even regular channels like CNN etc have to be raised accordingly. Added to the p... 
What's going on with Synergistic Research fuses?
@adam8179Synergistic offers a 100% money back warranty for 30 days. So have at it and enjoy the ride. You are doing the right thing.  
What's going on with Synergistic Research fuses?
@georgehifiYou really should talk to @atmasphere I know what he said. As for me, I am sorry, I cannot dismiss what I heard and am still hearing for what you believe based on theories. I choose reality. I wish I was like you, convinced beyond doubt... 
High Performance Audio - The End?
@douglas_schroeder No one is attacking you. Matter of fact, I had a lot of respect for you. That’s why I said that I didn’t expect that from you. You should have known better. What makes your comments incorrect is the generalization. Not all 40k s... 
High Performance Audio - The End?
@douglas_schroeder “If you're running a $5-10K rig, then do not expect such music to sound great.”How much do we have to spend to expect such music to sound great?  Wow!! I didn’t see that one coming from you. You should know better.  
What's going on with Synergistic Research fuses?
According to Atmasphere, the fuse makes a measurable difference. But Georgehifi thinks that this is not possible. I would love to see you two guys directly talk to each other. That would be interesting. Please gentlemen, you have the floor.

@adam8179While I don’t have the answer to any of your questions, I can tell you that in my Nuprime amplifier, the Synergistic Orange fuse was nothing short of unbelievable. This is the best tweak I have ever tried and I have absolutely no regret. ...

High Performance Audio - The End?
Could it be possible that the future of high end audio be totally different in a decade or so? Maybe some day soon, nobody will be spinning discs anymore . All of your music will be either in the cloud or on some hard drive. Your cell phone will h... 
Game Changing Tweak
@bartholomewGood for you!  You spent your money buying the item, you took the time to let us know your impressions of it, now someone is asking you to recruit your wife to test it 50 times no less and report back to him ASAP.  You seem like I to s... 
Game Changing Tweak
@pragmasi Your scenario doesn’t account for the fact that the distributors always have a money back guarantee and always give sufficient time to evaluate a product and return it if not satisfied. If we had to be persuaded of the theory before we b... 
Game Changing Tweak
Like everything else, only the ones who have tried it should have a say on whether it works or not. You can always try it and return it if it doesn't work for you.  No need to play the scientist or the prophet. Don't let the marketing scare you.  ... 
Does high end system with dedicated circuits need grounding products
I have the SR active ground block with the better ground wires and orange fuse.  I also have the 12-outlet power conditioner UEF-SE and a black outlet. I have a dedicated 8 GA wire line. Like Tom said, your mileage may vary. In terms of improvemen... 
Streaming: WiFi or wired??
Most equipment manufacturers will advise to use a wired connection if the device can do both and you have a choice between the two. Everything being equal, the best a wireless connection can do is be as good as the wired connection. It will not be...
