Upgrading Fuses
Heh, heh, heh! My response was no rebuttal, but it achieved the desired result. I hear what I hear. You can't prove I don't and i don't feel the need to prove that i do . If it works, it works. This is a fact that drives some service technicians c...

P.S. In addition to being an award-winning editor and journalist, Robert Harley is a respected engineer who has addressed this tired,old debate countless times. John Atkinson provides countless measurements of audiophile products. It doesn't matte...

I rest my case. These guys may have gone to the same engineering school as the cable supervisor who kept claiming my internet problems "can't be your modem. I've measured it twice and my instruments don't lie." Two weeks of labor, complete wire re...

Have you ever noticed how the "this can't work" crowd never talk about actually trying the products they denigrate? It really is unbelievably boring and pointless. It's like hanging out at a car collector convention just to nag everybody about how...

Jeff,Thanks for the clarification. Clearly, exchanging views is what this site is for. I think it's possible to do that without characterizing another's views as "inducing craziness" but that horse is dead now.I've never found hypothetical scenari...

Jeff,If you're not an audiophile, why do you hang out here? This is an audiophile website. If we "drive you crazy", you might consider going to a website more pleasing to you. Or, perhaps you enjoy ridiculing people. I hope not. There are so few p...

I can only attest to the use of Hifi Tuning Supreme fuses (not lesser iterations) sound in my DAC and transport. I will be installing one in my Classe' Delta 2200 amplifier over the weekend and others will be present to assess. If it fails to impr...

I agree that system resolution is definitely at play when it comes to system changes of any kind. I own Thiel CS3.7's (highly resolving) and use a ton of Shunyata power conditioning. Sometimes I can hear things I wish I couldn't. ;-0

I just replaced the fuses in my Perfect Wave DAC and PW transport with Hifi Tuning Supremes, which were created in cooperation with the famous Mundorf company, whose parts are used in some of the best audiophile gear in the world. Each of the four... 
Need a SACD/Redbook player
Given what you say your needs are, I'd check out the new Oppo B-95....brand new for $999. I have digital costing six times that and I encouraged a friend to buy one. He has a lower end hifi system and LOVES the Oppo. It replaced his Theta DAC. 
How Long Ago Since You Cried Listening To Music?
When I realized I'd blown my right tweeter while listening to Miles Davis...Seriously, Patty Griffith's "Rain" always makes me well up. 
Has anyone tried the Shunyata Diamondback PC?
Blazerfan,Everyone's mileage varies...but as many have posted here, breaking in a cable can take more than 100 hours of continuous playback. If you did that, then they definitely don't suit your tastes. I personally don't think the effects of powe... 
Which High Res releases are worth buying?
Bill,I always appreciate your tips about things digital! The website looks good and I'll check out the rest of the music. Those Skandanavians *do* know great jazz! 
Which High Res releases are worth buying?
It sure would be nice if more people could find some high resolution worth bragging about. It's tempting to conclude that there just aren't many qualifying titles out there. The Absolute Sound has just now begun a "trial" feature highlighting high... 
Bidat vs Perfect Wave vs Weiss and others
The Absolute Sound Golden Ear was awarded by Anthony Cordesman and not Peter Breuninger as previously posted. There was some confusion because of pre-publication posting of the information.
