1s are 1s, 0s are 0s, right?
You answered it yourself. Everything makes a difference.

Audio coupe quattro turbos... oops, components? 
Can I use TV/Cable Coxial cable as Digital Coxial?
I've tried using video coax cables as digital cables in the past. They are definitely doable but sounds thin than digital and regular analog RCAs. My conclusion is coax cables are generally constructed very poorly compared to analog and digital ca...

Transport or dac which one
I have no way of verifying this, but I think the transport gives off more interference than the DAC reason being it has a laser mechanism. In my system, I separated the DAC and amp from the transport to get the best sound. 
AV Racks. What difference does it make?
Lets just say we are talking about two completely different properties. 
Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel?
A center channel is not a full range speaker, so, naturally, it would only be fittign to use one in prologic surround theaters. 
AV Racks. What difference does it make?
El, materials do not have natural frequencies, yet it is the form that determines its physical properties? So your bell tower can consist of bells made of wood, metal and plastic and they will all sound the same so long as their shape is idential.... 
Which artists do you just not get?
I don't understand Maplethorpes' "art" either. If he donated a jar of his blood and organs then I'd be impressed. 
AV Racks. What difference does it make?
Hey Sean,The purpose of understanding natural resonance frequencies of different materials is so you can combine different materials to mechanically/sympathetically minimize vibration (instead of amplifying it.) If you examine the Symposium shelve... 
Are our own reviews tainted ?
Yes, lots of reviews are tainted. It is hard not to be tainted in your opinion when forming a review since you must have some implicit interest to volunteer your opinion. That being said, no one has implicit reason to share their opinion on someth...

Dean, you are like the audiogon mom I never had. Do you have to go around showing my naked baby pictures to strangers? = P 
How much power/channel for multi-channel amp?
I think you also need to state the room size the home theater is in as well as the speakers' sensitivity and impedence. However, I can't see how anyone can go wrong with an Aragon or a Bryston. 
AV Racks. What difference does it make?
Having been in the server/storage networks and enclosure industry during a pervious internship, I garnered some 411 on how acoustics and vibration energy can induce the amount of transfer inaccuracies and bandwidth impedements during high speed/vo...
