| Why are people always getting into pissing matches because they think what they have is better Had to look up the Dunning-Kruger Effect and glad I did. Great stuff there. Sweet quote: The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled people make poor decisions and reach erroneous conclusions, but their incompetence denies t... | |
| Olive Media 06HD Trouble Shooting Exactly what I did. And every single day I'm grateful. The HAP is so incredibly good, both in sound and ergonomics. Ignore the Luddite chuckleheads here who have transfer problems, etc. I can help you via pm anytime. Hint: only transfer 99 folders... | |
| Does it ever bother you Yes agree with taters.Whenever I suffer through a long tech deep dive I ponder my theory: they've never heard Fela Kuti. | |
| Is the word 'Integrated' that hard to spell? wlutke - agree. I won't buy from a garbled ad. I always ask them to call me as well so I know they're serious, responsive, etc. smrex13 - yes thought about that as well, the ESL aspect. Fair point. Your example, however, is for verbal, not written... | |
| On the draining of resonance..... Recently Art Dudley, a few issues back in a post I think called '3 rules' discussed resonance. He basically said draining efforts via spikes etc just makes the speaker front vibrate more. He said no spikes and use felt pads on everything. Check it... | |
| Is the word 'Integrated' that hard to spell? Haha the first salvo! :) | |
| Does West Coast Jazz get any better then this? They sound fantastic! | |

| 9 year old Parasound Jc 1s or new Bel Canto 1000m monos? If you do get Triton Ones (and you should, I just sold mine, they're killer) you don't need big amps. Good amp yes, but you're just pushing their small drivers. Check out van Alstine integrated. | |
| What's the greatest bargain in audio racks these days? I have a Quadraspire that I heart. Can hold anything. Budget stuff may collapse with your lbs. | |
| Sound Liaison Winter Sale 50% of DSD and 33% off on Flac I'm obsessed with Sound Liaison recordings. They are so incredibly good. The Paul Berner Band release is crazy good, as are the Carmen Gomes. | |
| How to best ship big & heavy speakers internationally? Pretty sure UPS & FedEx have weight limits under this. I use uShip for big speakers I've sold, Tyler D1 & Tannoy Churchill. No problems. They're pretty great actually. Door to door service. | |
| Album which you have listened to most? The Cure - Disintegration | |
| Ryan Speakers Bookshelf pair at Ember AV here in NC, they sound pretty great on a big Octave amp. | |
| CD stuck in Player---Help---Bebel Gilberto Same here: Bebel's self titled. I think I got via HD Tracks. It's incredibly good. I play it 2x/week or more. |
