Who listens primarily to Redbook CD?
One can’t help wondering if copying an audio cassette would also result in a copy that sounded better than the original. Or is that just too crazy? It is possible that some people might think it does. It has to do with the given individual genetic... 
Who listens primarily to Redbook CD?
Look for something on this subject from George Rankin (wavelength), is where I would start.I expect we are looking at a re-clocking issue of some sort.The vast majority of older CDP's, IIRC, get some of their important aspects of clocking cues fro... 
Who listens primarily to Redbook CD?
To add to what Georgehifi said: About 15 years ago R2R DACs were indeed better sounding than early Delta Sigma DACs. However early Delta Sigma issues (glare) have been resolved and their performance currently far exceeds R2R. The most lauded and ... 
Who listens primarily to Redbook CD?
I tend to listen to redbook, for the most part, but I’m using a ladder or R2R DAC. No delta-sigma single bit DAC here.Which makes a huge difference, IMO. When folks hear it they keep asking me how to get that incredible sound out of digital.The an... 
Burn-in question
The run in or burn in is largely permanent, but most gear does need to take time to stabilize at running temp. There are various reasons for this, some of them speculative - some of them known quantities.Specifically amplifiers tend to require thi... 
I have a blown driver and I'm not sure what to do
If run in the same cavity in parallel regarding shared back pressures (the most likely configuration), then one would have to replace with identical pairs, then the other speaker would have to be done the same way.Obtaining a new or used woofer of...

Best interconnect burn-in method
All those formulas and the theories and the generalizations (self admitted generalizations) in that wiki page on skin effect were idealized, tested, hypothesized, realized, etc (however one may wish to put it) with solidus lattice structures. Not ... 
Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus!
The GC and -Splash Rs’ RCA cables are now available in 2M length.Delivery time periods have also dropped down notably. All caught up on back orders - for the moment, that is... 
Skin Orgasms caused by music .
Part of it is uncompressed and uncompromised dynamics and complex micro-shading, which operate as a set piece, with live instruments, and possibly with well done PA and acoustics.This is what the ear desires to hear and can work with. The compress... 
Skin Orgasms caused by music .
If this was not a regular occurrence, then why bother with music?Oka gets ya high!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBBxkWTGZRE("Now listen and get high")If this does not happen to you, then you’re doing it wrong. Wrong equipment, wrong direction, w... 
Subwoofer for classical music listener
sealed subs, sealed mains. With variable crossover slopes on the subwoofer being available to you.It's how one gets to the best level of integration, in general terms.The issue with classical is that if you don't carefully adjust the crossover slo... 
Best interconnect burn-in method
Skin effect is an issue at audio frequencies. 
Top resistors
Glass is a dielectric when in solidus forum. When in liquid form, it is a conductor. Which takes you (eventually) back 'round to this aspect of 'secretive alloys' (and their construction) for the vishay bulk foil resistors. Secretive for good re...
