| Vinyl VS Digital chayroOne pitfall of analog is that some people just cannot sit back and listen to it without constantly thinking about cartridge alignment, record cleaning, VTA, VTF and whatever else can be fooled with. That's true. Those listeners usually... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? jinjuku... I'm willing to do this with a few 'patients' (claimants) to see if their drug of choice "sighted evaluation" is merely sugar pill. What is it that you propose to test? Are you also seeking a wager, as you did last time, with 5-1 odd... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? gdhalAnd this is why blind testing is very fair and extremely useful in these matters. It allows the listener who is subjected to the test to "guess" or otherwise "perceive" a differenceThis shows a complete misunderstanding of scientific listenin... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? gdhal This is why the terms of the test must be *mutually agreed and then bound contractually* to the satisfaction of both parties. Otherwise, no test. Simple. Scientists who conduct listening tests don't require $25,000 "escrows" from partic... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? cleeds - ...But they were met by the forum's self-proclaimed objectivists with some odd preconditions, including a $25,ooo wager and agreements prepared by attorneys for "protection.....gdhalWhat's odd about asking to handle the matter private... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning terry9I too have bought many records which appear NM, but play poorly. Just to note, most records look NM after a US cleaning (scratches excepted, obviously). Nevertheless, a well used record plays that way, no matter how it looks.Exactly. A... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning fleschlerI've purchased ebay records where the seller used the KLAudio. The records are nearly mint; however, they are missing their highsI don't think there's any correlation between the lack of highs on these LPs and the use of the Klaudio m... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? jbnyI am more interested to hear why those who are hearing a difference in the sound of their files via Ethernet cabling think it is happeningIf an explanation interests you, you might want to scroll up and read the post from @markalarsen that... | |
| Audio Research CD Remote Control gregorybraun But don't I still need a remote control that sends C5infra-red signals that the 850 can then 'learn' fromIf you have a Harmony 650, you can get the codes online. Sorry, I'm not familiar with the 850. | |

| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? geoffkaitHe’s been digging around inside digital gear for 25 years?! Well, that blows my theory that he’s only 15 years old all to hell. His "Go give yourself a cookie" rejoinder and temper tantrums reveal that he probably hasn’t reached 15 yet. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? geoffkaitmI would probably call it pseudo faith or pseudo belief. I think the faith of the "pseudo-skeptics" is the genuine article. Consider the vitriol that follows when their faith is challenged - they respond just like fundamentalist evangeli... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? geoffkaitNaysayers claim that certain tweaks are snake oil. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. Where’s your proof? Their "proof" is their belief, i.e. their faith. By definition, faith requires no proof. That's why attempting to ... | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? shadorne... ABSOLUTELY NONE of the snake oil claims have been proved in the usual manner - for example an AES publication with measurements or double blind listening tests to demonstrate audibility. There have been some proposals here to design... | |
