| Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why? If you are putting yourself out there as an expert I think it takes more than just a microphone and a computer. If @amir_asr @kota1 : let’s be fair here, Sir Armir’s AP testing equipment alone is several times more expensive than your entire sy... | |
| Snake oil of the year? Judging by the tone of your OP, you never tried an Ethernet Switch? They may or may not impact SQ depending on your own system, and your listening skills / preference. I don't know your system. But, judging by the picture on your profile, with the... | |
| Kimber PK 10 Palladian vs Shunyata Python Python and Anaconda are old Shunyata model cables. Previous (several) generations | |
| Room correction room system vs ears…. I tried using absorption on the front wall in my prior home and current listening room and did not like the dulling, lifeless effect. On the front wall (behind speakers), diffusors tend to work much better than absorbers. I have about 65% of my... | |

| DAC’s When I play an LP and stream the same thing via Spotify, it largely sounds the same between LP, dongle, and RME. Yup! Obviously. Everything sounds the same to you 🙄 They all sound pretty good to me. Good. Nirvana. Then why are you in these ... | |
| DAC’s @cakyol : In my opinion, you could get a Chord Qutest for about 2k, which is one of the best DACs around, and save about 5k. Believe me, you will never hear the difference, especially not worth a price differential of 5k, even if you have bette... | |
| DAC’s So, to answer the question- Do I need a Roon Core? From my experience, no. @gdnrbob : Your Innuos IS the Roon Core | |
| DAC’s You probably cannot be saved, Oh Sherlock… Obviously 🙄 OK… We have suggestions of: $100 dongle $1-2k DAC $7k DAC $20k + DACS I do not think it is dishonourable for the OP to try and listen to that DAC before jumping in. You forg... | |
| DAC’s @jerryg123 : …..paid my taxes. I will spend my money as I see fit. Yup! That’s sums it all up. You owe nothing to anyone | |
| DAC’s richardmathes 8 posts 10-27-2022 at 04:14pm $10,000 for a DAC? Someone's priorities, i.e., the important ones, the social ones, are out of whack. Never mind that the claim that there is a audible difference of $9700... | |
| DAC’s Those who say DACs don’t matter, zeroes and ones, I want to smoke what you are smoking. Or have tin ears. Or never listened to music. I would have saved myself a lot of money. It’s like those guys with a Chromecast Audio as a “DAC” who bitch a... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts it's the stuff around the chip that matter. Absolutely! I feel sorry for those who don’t get this pretty simple fact. I will copy / paste below what Charlie Hansen (Ayre) said before he died: ———- The thing that I see over and over and o... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts @herbreichert : could you please elaborate a bit more on what you said above for those who don't have the patience to google Benchmark parts by part number? By the way, are you THE Herb Reichert? |
