Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing

When we finally come up with a machine that measures the sound differences in wires, jacks, op amps, resistors, inductors, etc, into infinity....that will be nice

Wires, jacks, etc. don’t emit sound. There are no sound differences in wires, jacks, op amps, etc., only differences in electrical characteristics/parameters. We do have machines that can measure them. What we can’t account for is human subjective preferences. Whether or not a change is an improvement or not isn’t in the equipment, it’s in the perceptions of the listener. "Better" or "worse" when it is applied to sound is subjective. Get over it.

Your goal is to sell people on your mods so you can earn a profit. You tell people your mods make the equipment sound better. You preach how they are universal, blah blah blah, but it's just your opinion. You pray on the insecurity of others and play your siren song...All for money. How loving.

The trick here is understanding that the measurements, if the correct ones are actually made, affect what you hear in a very direct way. There used to be a disconnect in this regard because we simply didn't have the technology to show things like the distortion spectra with any detail. But that's been around for a while and if you understand how the ear/brain system perceives sound you can predict what an amp will sound like by looking at the measurements. Most audiophiles are old enough in this market to remember when that wasn't true. But you're not going to get anywhere if you live in the past 😉

You have no idea what you are talking about since you have never listened to wires, fuses, etc

No, it is you making assumptions about what I have and haven't listened to- you are the one with no idea.

Wires, etc., do not have a "sound"- there are inanimate objects that pass electric current. The sound is all in your head.

 

I understand that measurements can affect sound.....However, it is just one tool and a very flawed one. You cannot measure resistors, inductors, wire, solder, op amps, connecotrs, damping, shielding, directionality of fuses, fuses, circuit board material, resonances, etc. in any meaningful way......You have to listen.

if you are using a big inductive resistor and then went to a small non inductive resistor....you might measure something. However, all nichrome surface mount one sixteenth watt reistor brands ALL sound different from each other. They are all made from practically the same material....are the same size, etc.....Why wuold this be? Who cares?!.....I A/Bed four different brands and one brand was clearly more transparent then the others......still using this resistor today.....but I parallel them for better sound and use a larger version as that sounds better too........so many things affect the sound that cannot be measured......this is HOW it is.
