| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... The equivalent of a dam is the large capacitors in a linear power supply. If big enough and filtered appropriately then the power cord only needs to be specified properly. If too small then performance will be variable depending on many factors - ... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @decibell Explain. Why yes it is quite simple. Power can be noisy and badly designed components and appliances can make the power in your home noisier (even to the point of affecting other components) Switched Mode Power Supplies are a major culpr... | |
| Pass Labs Unfortunately Wind and solar don't begin to compete economically with coal. Coal is inexpensive and clean coal burning electric power stations are just as practical as clean gasoline cars with catalytic converters and both have ultra low emissions... | |
| High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference? Sorbothane is an excellent damping plastic material (another type of plastic polymer). I would agree that a heavy turntable with constrained layer damping or with sorbothane plastic footers will be an improvement on just a heavy turntable alone. N... | |
| High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference? @geoffkait Lol. You are wrong on both counts but won't admit it. Blind to your own inflated ego. Count 1: You stalked me - anyone can check this thread to see who started stalking who. I comment first then the stalker (you) immediately strike w... | |
| High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference? @geoffkait I didnt do nothing. Just responded to your ignorant post that was "stalking" my initial post. | |
| High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference? @dcbingaman +1 My experience exactly. Geoffkait doesn’t seem to know what "plastic" is and that Vinyl and acrylic are forms of plastic. He clearly thinks that the majority of light weight turntables are made from something other than plastics. Th... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... Very clever - just observational comments - Flat earthers and wing nuts and engineers to stupid to see danger!Little things make little minds happy I guess. | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @schubert Of course the last few feet can filter power and improve performance of SOTA equipment - no flat earth or right wing nuts deny that. However, so can the power cord and power supply in the SOTA equipment. It is reasonable to expect an imp... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @geoffkait Hel-loo! If as you say I live in a cave at least it is in the real world. You are living in a tin foil fantasy land. I hope you are delivering high quality coal to you local power station so that you can enjoy the improvement from burni... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @geoffkait Nothing I said is Strawman.You say SOTA gear improves with better power cords. FACT I do not contest that statement but ask is this acceptable from SOTA gear?I ask if it is not reasonable to expect SOTA gear to work properly without s... | |
| Hearing is believing?........power cables....... @geoffkait "Calling power cords "band aids" doesn’t change the fact that replacing stock power cords in high end well-designed electronics with better power cords usually improves the sound. "Ok ok so you say it is a fact.I agree it is a fact and ... | |
| High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference? Manufacturers came up with cheaper plastic turntables in the 70’s and since then all manner of BS to justify saving money with a cheaper design. You only have to walk across the room to hear how badly lightweight designs perform. You can't beat ph... | |
