| How To Measure "Current" In An Amplifier? Thanks Almarg. Understood. And Ralph's explanation was a bit "over-my-head". :)Erik, in answer to your question, Musical Fidelity M6si amp and Golden Ear Triton One speakers. | |
| How To Measure "Current" In An Amplifier? Thank you Erik. The difference between plus and minus peak certainly makes sense. But then given what your saying that there may not be (or at least you are not aware) of a "standard" for measurement, then I imagine it should be difficult to compa... | |
| How To Measure "Current" In An Amplifier? The manual for the amp I have (Musical Fidelity M6si) indicates a current output of "45 Amps peak to peak". I get the "45 amps" portion of that, but I'm not entirely sure what the "peak to peak" is meant to signify. Almarg, Erik I'd be appreciate ... | |
| Center Splice Speaker Wire Thanks Eric. Yeah the wire I'm using is copper. I didn't know that oxidation is just as conductive. From what I've read elsewhere, such as here http://www.roger-russell.com/wire/wire.htm , oxidation would be something to avoid. In any case I'm not... | |

| Need Help From The Resident Experts @almarg your wealth of information about all things audio related never ceases to be impressive, informative and rather well articulated. | |
| Power conditioner help A properly functioning power conditioner does not choke anything. The manufacturers typically will or will not state whether or not their conditioner limits current. Regardless, current can be checked before and after the conditioner with a simple... | |
| The demise of the music CD inevitable? rgs92 wrote: I have hundreds of CDs purchased new from 1986 to 1989 (I know because I made a big list in 1990) and with a rare exception they all play and sound just fine. I don’t know where the data or experiments on this idea that CDs wear out i... | |
| DSD vs. PCM vs. MQA - Group listening experiment @rgs92 do you mean to say you are able to hear a difference in a BLIND test between PCM and DSD? If yes, that has never been known to have been achieved, nor is that documented by an applicable and recognized scientific study. | |
| Power conditioner help arsh, yes I have one PC plugged into another. The Emotiva is one of the only devices that offers a "DC filter". The Panamax has surge protection and under/over voltage protection. Both have noise/rfi/emi filtering. IMO unless your looking to spend... | |
| Power conditioner help arsh, I posted this in the amp forum as well.I'd be interested to know more about your MF Nuvista, but that's another topic for another day. I have a Musical Fidelity M6si which I'm real happy with. I can only imagine what the Nuvista tubes soun... | |

| The demise of the music CD inevitable? Perhaps this post of mine just reiterates what I have already stated. Nevertheless, for those with CDs 30 years with no sign (as least as you are able to tell) of ROT, keep in mind year 31 could be very different. Granted, nothing last forever. Re... |
