| Think Its Possible To Order Tubes From the Ukraine? You see, we happen to be more humane There’s the mistake in your state’s logic. It is not humane to let people sink into the degradation of drug addiction and live on the streets, stealing to support their habits from honest people who have put... | |
| Innuos Network Isolation Switch and Reclocker (Phoenix) Thanks for the review. It’s good to see work being done in this area. It’s needed to make streaming sound as good as other digital in my experience (I’m not there yet). | |
| Best way to determine shipping charges @riley804 Yes riley, you can go to each shipper’s site and get an estimate of what it will cost to ship with them, but I was answering this question from the OP: I’m wondering if there’s a “best” technique for figuring out shipping charges. I k... | |
| Best way to determine shipping charges You can negotiate with the buyer that he or she pay actual shipping costs, but there's no site that I know of that will give all the options like travel sites. | |
| Old CDs and records If you enjoyed putting your collection together and listening to it, you got your money’s worth. Think of all the things you have to spend money on that give you no enjoyment. You can keep the CDs and records in case streaming fees go to levels t... | |
| The review wehave been promising is up From Dave’s post: Another point we offer a two week unconditional return trial There are many dealers/manufacturers who get the approval of the anti-Dave crew here who do not offer this option. Dave is putting his money where his mouth is. To ... | |
| What are we objectivists missing? just wondering if anyone has any speculation as to what measurements are missing. Unfortunately, we don’t know what we don’t know. I’m pretty sure that within 10 years someone will come up with a way to measure distortion in an audio signal tha... | |
| Update on Production of Western Electric Tubes Per the article in Stereophile, the owner of WE, Charlie Whitener, said they currently have plans to make 12AT7, 12AU7, 12AX7, 6550 and 6L6 tubes. They also bought GEC/Gold Lion tooling which would allow them to make KT88, KT150, KT170 and KT190 ... | |
| Other factors affecting sound Here you go, @kingharold: Millercarbon’s The Audio Files It looks a little lonely over there. mc would probably appreciate your company. | |
| Other factors affecting sound I miss Miller Carbon’s comments and wish he were back. I sometimes totally disagreed with him, but that is part of the fun. He also had a good dry wit. He has his own website now. You can get all the mc you want. I don't recall the name of the... | |
| Streaming vs Physical Media @lalitk Every streamer or server out there regardless of price simply benefits from noise filters placed in between server or streamer and your router. Yes, I have one myself. I believe the manufacturers should be able to do this better if it... | |
| Streaming vs Physical Media @charles1dad Thanks for the recommendation. That Taiko server certainly looks well-built and unique. I haven't read the reviews yet, but I will. I may have to wait for a good deal on a used one or until the tech makes it into less expensive s... | |
| Streaming vs Physical Media How long is it going to take for the makers of streamers/servers to realize that all their hard work is being undone by a noisy signal and build a streamer/server that cleans up that signal? It would be easier for them to do it once rather than h... | |
| Atma-Sphere M60 monoblocks + ML ESL 11 = Inferior combo It’s not that the atma-spheres are bad amps, it’s just that they were not designed to power speakers like MLs. They are designed for easy to drive speakers and many people find they do very well in that situation. This has been discussed many tim... |
