Why Power Cables Affect Sound
Hi 31I don’t put stock in what anyone says here except for the music forums. What I do put stock in are the folks who use my product every day, and all over the world. The feedback I get and referencing I do with them is priceless. It’s like havin... 
How do you know what a good speaker is?
Hi innaWhat crowd?Maybe you weren't referring to me.  
How do you know what a good speaker is?
"How do you know what a good speaker is?"There's probably not too many speaker designers out there that think their speakers are bad. The important thing to understand is, when you are bringing their speaker into your home your also committing you... 
CDs Vs LPs
I'm a Redbook CD man all the way, but I'm not a High End CDP guy at all. Michael Green 
Digital, Low Mass, ClassD, Less expensive, Let it happen!
For a point of referenceI have Audio Note, Jolida and a few others, but the tube designer I've enjoyed listening to this last couple of years for amps and preamps is.... http://audolici.com/ Especially the A25-M and the AP-01. I mention these as a... 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
Power cables, as with all cables, are highly tunable. I like starting with the basic wire and jacket and tune my way up from there.http://www.michaelgreenaudio.net/mga-audio-cable  
Break in blues
The nature of breakin is a continuum. Designers have had the task of soft selling breakin to make it easier on the end user. Saying 40hrs, 400hrs or 400days is really nothing more than a selling point so that the designer (and listener) can have a... 
Nature of the current used speaker market
Audio eye candy and audio listening are two distinctly different hobbies and professions. It's easy to tell the difference. One looks like a showcase display and the other looks like electrical, mechanical and acoustical tools. The eye candy guy t... 
The Future of Audio Amplification
Gotta love innovation! I've never looked at audio as a dollar thing, but instead a doing thing. Pretty faceplates are a short lived thrill for me, a distraction honestly. Fashion changes on a whim, in the end though is the recorded and playback so... 
Nature of the current used speaker market
Hi inna, you said"Those people buy new, some of them are even audiophiles."I don’t see these guys showing up at the HEA trade shows do you?I might be way off target but I don’t see the market the way some here are describing it at all. Let me give... 
Digital, Low Mass, ClassD, Less expensive, Let it happen!
kosst says "Not really sure what Pass amps have to do with the general behavior of amps in general."My answer to that is everything since kosst uses them as his point of reference. So what he is saying is, he using Pass Labs as his reference yet h... 
Break in blues
Hi jtcfSorry about that! I should have been more clear as to who I was talking about. I was talking to you as the OP but I was referring to those who come up and say changes don't make a difference. Of course all changes including burnin are audib... 
Break in blues
Hi jtcfHere's a rule of thumb (a broadly accurate guide or principle, based on experience or practice rather than theory). Anytime you read someone can not hear breakin (burnin) "run". If someone is not able to hear audio differences in this hobby... 
Nature of the current used speaker market
I hope folks don’t mind me sharing my views on these forums. They can come off alarming I know, but my posts here are based in reality not fiction. The 80’s and 90’s we spent our time as insiders recruiting young and middle aged listeners into thi...
