So you think wire conductors in cables are directional? Think again...
nonoise7,051 posts05-17-2021 1:56pmAll it takes nowadays to be an "expert" is to just go out and buy some test equipment you can afford and viola!, you're an expert. Now you can measure to your hearts content being guided by your expectation bias ...

andy21,300 posts05-17-2021 1:07pmA lot of the so called "objectivists" believe in some of the so called "measurement websites". They measure some frequency responses, some basic distortions and make some wild claims that nobody cares to check.  I... 
Does the 1.5m 75ohm rule apply to 110ohm?
Except the 25nsec is not a set number, and neither is 5nsec/ft, both can be smaller or larger, not to mention there is hysteresis and settling time that pushes that transition values above/below 0V, which means that theoretical 12 and 15nsec could... 
Issue with dynamic range database
It was mentioned. However, that only validates the authors point, it does not invalidate it.  The online dynamic range data base is user generated. We can be confident the digital values are accurate as digital systems are consistent at a macro le... 
Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth"
hilde45,I read your other post on your room treatments. Have you tone frequency sweeps on both amplifiers? With some tube amps with low damping factors coupled with the speakers, you may have some significant changes in the frequency response that...

What happened to the post with the links? It appear to have been deleted?I did check one of the linked articles. Conceptually it was okay, but the math was questionable. They considered the rise time to determine a mid-point, but did not consider ...

I would suggest leaving the quotes to others. It is not your forte. Sartre’s quote has valuable meaning. Your’s not so much. Sartre’s is about doers and non doers. It’s about people who gets things done. Yours pretty much advocates conformity whet...

"Only the guy who isn’t rowing has time to rock the boat."Best when quoting to get the quote correct. Used correctly it is an apt quote.

The popcorn is excellent. I have my own machine in the audio and theater room. You take yourself too seriously. People outside this hobby would look at this thread and wonder what is wrong with the people. There are two or three threads about why ... 
Biggest audio hoaxes
Graphene in drives makes sense. High strength in the necessary direction compared to weight. It is a good conductor along the grain. It is poor through the grain. That limits it's electrical usage. 
Where are the young audiophiles?
I think audiophilia, the kind many here subscribe to would be considered by many younger to be elitist and a bit bizarre. It is not very inviting, nor inclusive and feels a bit like a strange club. Younger people these days tend to be more experie...

And the subjectivists have now brought in their quotable expert (that’s what the links claim at least but can we trust anyone that claims transmission lines at audible frequencies?). How will the objectivists answer? Will this get bloody?Time to o... 
NO! Jitter does not always matter.
Tomcy,This forced other manufacturers to compete with other technologies. Async sample rate conversion was put on chip at low cost (ESS), cypress came up with another switched cap implementation. Pulse timed as opposed to purely input timed resist...

Bukanona, he mastered the CD and vinyl. He knows what he is doing.Miller carbon he states that the digital version sounds crisper and more dynamic even if the numbers do not. Based on some of the blowups it looks like he needed a rumble filter and...
