| Room acoustics ronniemoYes, Room acoustics play an invaluable role in listening pleasure. I bought a pair of used speakers listening to them in a acoustically professionally treated room, took them home and wasn’t even close. They are good speakers but not as go... | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... That’s only some skinny. Not the whole skinny. Smart move! 😀Wait! Unless, unless...the wave is traveling on the OUTSIDE of the fuse! What say, Mapman? 😳 And why is the Blue Fuse blue if Graphene is applied to the outside of the fuse? Graphene is b... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? french_fries - eggs ackley!! It isn’t really a technical argument in my opinion. If it was a technical argument the CD would always win. That’s what’s so frustrating!! 😛 It’s what you like to listen to. Music soothes the savage breast. By and larg... | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... oregonpapa wrote,"My take is that the fuses use graphene internally ... and graphene is known to eliminate micro-arcing. Micro-arcing, like micro-vibrations have the effect of smearing and degrading the sound."Not sure I go along with you on your ... | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... I suspect the vibration of walls in concert with seismic low frequency vibration would swamp any micro effects associated with fuses, capacitors, transformers, not that those effects would be inaudible in most cases. That’s why capacitors, fuses a... | |
| Soundstage and explosive dynamics? Actually, Tool’s recorded works are relatively uncompressed dynamic range wise, see link below for the list of Tool recordings including reissues and their relative dynamic ranges, from the Official Dynamic Range Database. Green is good, red is ba... | |
| New York HiFi Show: Tubes and Turntables willemj, OK, you’ve convinced me! The biggest market must be the one with the best sound. Or at least the one with sound just as good as high end sound. Why else would it be so popular? I did not realize there were so many connoisseurs of good sou... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? raymondaGeoffkait,Compression is added to get "punch". As a recording engineer I learned this from others and use it myself. If your kick sounds loose and flabby, add compression. It will give it punch. If the bass is a bit defused and lost in the... | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... If not much trouble can someone be so good as to check the Use By date on the Roach Motels? | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? That Direct to Disk thing really caught on, eh? The industry had a different idea in mind. Overly aggressive dynamic range compression. 😬 | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? It might be one of the big ironies of audio that tapes degrade, even though I suspect when properly cared for it’s probably not a huge problem, and that’s why digital came along. Another big irony is that solid state replaced tube electronics due ... | |
| What makes tape sound better than vinyl ? stringreenIts impossible to get audiophile sound from a car system.>>>Let’s get real. It’s impossible to get audiophile sound from many HOME SYSTEMS. More to the point, it’s possible to get very good sound from car systems. WITHOUT much e... | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... Al, nice try. The nice legalese notwithstanding. 😄 Nobody including myself or even HiFi Tuning ever suggested the differences in measurements explain the audible differences among fuses. But it is evidence nevertheless. Everybody and his brother e... | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... Sorry, no offense, Mitch, but you must have been snoozing since the way these aftermarket fuses work has been explained to death, including the various SR fuses. OK, you can go back to sleep, now. | |
| The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... Another nice, succinct and condescending post from troll #3. Bravo! |
