What's happened to the used high end market recently?? Sales are tough....:0(
The equipment was always..supposed to be about servicing the music.When you look at the whole scenario and package presented in the now, as presented to anyone looking at it, as potential to listen... you can’t blame the younger folks for going fo... 
Long RCA interconnects
Triple that number if you want to actually have a business that lasts longer than the initial musing.The number that is openly stated by synergistic, in the TAS published cable bible section of an industry overview with many interviews with compan... 
Every Audiophile's Turn-on
1: turns on amplifierThe rest is my pc, which has internet streaming and gets turned on anyway.the dac is always on. Passive preamp has a relatively static setting.Lots of analog, but I rarely bother.simple is best, less is more. Less hardware, si... 
Looking for a Giant Killer Digital cable
When looking at dac cabling one has to also look at the given reclocking scenario that may be in play.Quite a bit of the modern gear reclocks at one end of the transmission chain, or both.this will narrow the differences in cables to some degree.T... 
Looking for a Giant Killer Digital cable
you can buy glass tos cables, not just glass ST link cables.speaking of that, I must have a few thousand feet of st link glass terminated cables. Found a pile of  it a few months back, can't bring myself to throw it out.... 
Looking for a Giant Killer Digital cable
I just noticed, Oddly enough, in the clip I added, from the film 'miracle mile', I recognized a voice, and it was in the aerobics room, in the clip. It was an uncredited speaking role in a film (one line), for Marina Sirtis  (Deanna Troy from St... 
Looking for a Giant Killer Digital cable
A variable cap and variable resistor on the input termination of the dac, and then use a scope to look..and tune a perfect edge on the input waveform. I used to do that in hardwired video installs for custom built CRT projection systems. tuned bot... 
Why Aren't More Speaker Designers Building Augmented Widebanders?
Most importantly, if one is gong to SELL product to buyers, the product should be, as much as possible, what is known as a ’pull’ product, and never a ’push’ product.a pull product is where the customer is actively seeking the item and pulls it fr... 
Why Aren't More Speaker Designers Building Augmented Widebanders?
Getting to a wideband driver that can cleanly do upper frequencies (above approx 3k to maybe 10k) is an art that few driver designers can meet. It's very tough to do, with regard to being capable in all directions required. Generally...the more wi... 
Stereophile, no more bench tests????!!!!
So, the reasonable and open conclusion is that reasonable thinking people tend to to find themselves always attacking and undressing/adressing illiteracy and it’s projections.10x the work for almost no results.Over and over, explicitly so, as illi... 
Stereophile, no more bench tests????!!!!
A domino of thought conclusion, a nugget of a new position/view on reality... can be found in my prior post, ie...this is why there is such a high level of correlation between pathological religious adherence, and the dogged demands for overt scie... 
It really comes to something when a brand as iconic as Gibson Guitars cant stay afloat!
Maybe someone will buy those marques and do something functional with them. Whatever the heck functional means. 
Stereophile, no more bench tests????!!!!
The measurements are still there, IIRC, and I think John/Stereophile now possibly owns the audio precision test bed? Whereas he had it on extended loan originally, from reading his earliest comments on such...George, you are leaping to conclusions... 
High End is Dead?
So it's not dead, it's just ... pining for the fjords. 
High End is Dead?
Mind the gap.Vinyl has made a comeback of sort and will slowly refill the ranks of the HEA. Sort of.  Kinda. In it's own way. But there will be a gap, for a while. The vynil resurgence may only create a numbers game that is akin to a dead cat boun...
