| Directionality of wire @herman Thank you for your considered response. | |
| Directionality of wire @herman Thanks for your input, with which I completely agree, except for "the movement of electrons is the cause when it is the effect". In my view, the two are dual, in the mathematical sense.I guess that comment is intended for you and Al and Ra... | |
| How many LP's @lewm I may have some good news for you. The TransFi is a low pressure system, and works on an aquarium pump, which is virtually maintenance free. No oil, no mess. They are also low noise; perhaps, with a good enough box, quiet enough for the list... | |
| Mono recordings - two questions... Belafonte at Carnegie Hall - mono is just as good as the stereo | |
| Journey ending speakers I've had the big Quad ESL's for 10 years now, and don't ever plan to change. Augment, maybe ... | |
| Mono recordings - two questions... Good comments above.I use a mono cartridge for mono recordings, Miyajima Zero. It blossoms with obsessive setup, surprisingly so for a conical stylus.My special favourites in mono are Casals' Bach Cello Suites, Joan Baez, and lots of really intere... | |
| Directionality of wire @ivan_nosnibor No problem, Ivan. No offence taken. We all rant from time to time. | |
| Directionality of wire @ivan_nosnibor Ivan, I was simply pointing out the difficulty of conducting a valid experiment. There are too many ways for the mind to trick a putative experimenter. The scientific method is capable of controlling these to a large extent.Should o... | |
| Directionality of wire @nonoise My response was to your direct question about statistics.As for your point about first hand observation, statistics has something to say about that too. It is very tempting to think that one is experimenting when one is just fiddling. Unf... | |
| Directionality of wire @nonoise Yes, I am versed in statistics. The chances of many people believing something cannot be estimated without reference to either a lot more data (such as how many don't believe it), or simplifying assumptions.I would point out that lots of ... | |
| Shindo Labs Amps and Preamps For moving coil step up transformers, I like the Lundahl amorphous core / silver wire units. I use the 1931 Ag, which I find superb. | |
| Directionality of wire I think that I could have said that more clearly. Instead of "But that is already achieved by the negative wire of the balanced line" perhaps I should have said, "But that is already achieved by the negative wire of the 2 wire / 1 shield line."... | |
| Directionality of wire @cleeds If by "insensitive end" you mean the amplifier end - as George stated - then you are completely confused.I don’t think that I’m confused at all.First, we’re talking here about single-ended connections. Pro-audio uses balanced connections.Q... | |
| Directionality of wire I should add that a shotgun approach is also useful in that a number of measures, individually inaudible, can sum to a clear improvement. | |
| Directionality of wire @jea48 Hello Jea.To answer your question: I was having a lot of trouble with my system about 20 years ago, when I moved into a new neighbourhood, perfect in every way but RF. I tried a shotgun approach, which worked, but I don't remember isolating... |
