| Second audio system in your house? I went the other route and from the start never really intended to have more than one system - and it would be a single-sourced system at that. Never really had the extra home space or the extra cash for another rig and didn't feel I could afford ... | |
| Moto_Man's Scam Of The Week Geoff, I think I see what you're getting at when you talk about interference. I will try keeping a more open mind on it. Appreciate the heads up though. | |
| Moto_Man's Scam Of The Week We spend so much money on sympathetic vibration (mostly trying to kill it...tone arm design, speaker cabinets, component chassis, etc)...and then to turn around and say that injecting more of it (even if in an attempt to control it) is somehow bet... | |
| Learning the hard way about AC power solutions I agree with Kenny, Miguel and others that the AC game is very challenging (but worthwhile) to get right. Personally, I would say that the face of that game has been changing all along and is now going more in the direction of "quantum" physics th... | |
| Conversion to DSD: Does It Eliminate Digital Glare? DSD conversion cannot reduce glare on its own. Nor can any other digital format, process or protocol reduce glare on its own, period - hirez, lowrez or norez. The only thing a digital format, process or protocol can guarantee is the presence of no... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Roger,"I believe you can have both a neutral system and a natural system. After all - if your understanding of "neutral" means no top end or bottom end exaggerations or no coloration's etc., wouldn't the default term be "natural" as well - meaning... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Understood. Last I checked, I believe my system was full differentially balanced, but since some of it is modified I should 'triple check' that, to be sure. But, to make clear for anyone else, I've certainly found balanced lines to make an audible... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Atmasphere, the real ’good and valid point’ I felt Geoff to be making there (and I didn’t fully make this clear above) is simply that magnetic fields do have an adverse impact on sound. Who is right or not on the theoretical details I’m not really... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Neutral IS attainable...very much so; as a valid audio concept it is alive and well, even if only in a purely subjective sense. But, brightness, darkness or bass-heavy etc, are nothing more than frequency response issues and can be fully corrected... | |
| ENTIRE SYSTEM NEEDED TO SELL First of all, very sorry to hear the news. We all send our condolences, I’m sure. Can you tell us his Audiogon name? That way we would likely be able to see his system and make recommendations for you on how best to sell. Again, very sorry for you... | |
| I think I've Just Seen Absolute Proof That Audiophiles Are Insanely Gullible Should be great for putting more longterm load on a TT motor than it was designed for... | |
| In a lot of these threads people say without the room being treated I think there are countless ways for audiophiles to both wander into, and out of, the many pitfalls involved with the subject of room treatment, but I would agree with others here that it's very easy to overdo it and you usually have to find some ... | |
| Overcoming ba(e)droom accoustics The Wavetouch Grand Teton (2.0 or SE) may fit your bill. Their horns provide the narrow dispersion with a nice, lively sound and a very deep stage. Their measured 3db-down point is about 43 Hz, but may well go lower in your small room, of course. ... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Yes, I’d say you were not exactly correct, but for a different reason. This exact problem is one I found a solution for after stumbling onto Alan Maher Designs in 2010. I keep going on about AMD, from time to time at least, and nobody may pay me m... | |
| A brief respite from the usual pablum... That's awesome (loved the John Williams touch) |
