All-in-One solutions, eh? During my time building speaker enclosures, I learned about placing drivers a minimum distance from each other, as well as the components in the crossover a minimum distance from the drivers because inductors and speaker coils create fields that can interact with one another. We can't have that now! So watch out for compact, all-in-one designs. Also, watch out for 90-degree turns in the traces of your circuit boards that may create reflections and audible distortion.

@tkrtrb125 ...I don't care for argumentations over audio, either. 🙁 Even as I'm positive that one makes a decision on what item for 'concrete' considerations and rationales with the costs involved, those choices when rendered here can seem to get ground into sand with the occasional inference of "What were you thinking?!" ...and the given forum is off and running....for however many pages that may entail. Audio and that which we employ for the appreciation of what we prefer to listen to is so meshed with our tastes, desires, and the situations we inhabit to do so. @73 .... I wear aids, by necessity ....at 2K, I roll off like a ski slope. Physical dexterity is slipping, multiple Rx for a heart condition (2 make me 'drowsy', 2 'dizzy', 2 additional do both; 3 are effected by high temps outdoors that amplify the previous), COPD, on-board pacer and de-fibber, eyes on the verge of cataracts... Oh, and then there's the potential of being ADHD and/or ADD since birth or thereafter, but those terms didn't even exist when I was young... ... and a few sharp hits to the skull beyond that start....none of which were deserved....car accident, thrown baseball bat, oak stool broken during a break-in attempt (ER MD stitching head commented he'd seen a lot of these due to bar fights....retort was that there wasn't anything or alcohol involved, and certainly nothing fun about it...) ..personal pref, btw... more my style, and cheaper. Would love to ride, but I bend, fold, tear, and mutilate too easy of late....even through leather and ballistics.... .but I know what I like, even if it's far from SOTA. If it makes me happy, I can still miss the last .001% and be blissfully engaged, despite all of the above. @mapman .....consciousness is the dangerous thing, in that some seem to lack 'conscience' over the power and prescience it wields....mho.... @uncledemp .....'bout ready for a bowl of that....;) As for 'how am', you've likely seen the above.... Still Vertical....👍😎 |
Better amplifer... worse amplifier (facepalm)...I suspect you are still not getting it. I picked 3 items of much more complexity (engineering cost, fabs costs, etc whatever) that are priced less the 14k power wire + 2 plugs. I asked you what made that wire + plugs so sophisticated that it cost more than those other 3 items. If my net worth was 500+ million and I decided to go with a million dollar rig one day, i still wouldn’t get a power wire + 2 plugs for 14k. It may still be 200 dollars off of aliexpress for me, i.e., that’s the price of a wire + 2 plugs for me. If i had 500 million dollars and decided to buy toilet power, it would still be 5 bucks. That’s the price of toilet paper for me. I wouldn’t pay a 1000 bucks for a roll of toilet paper ( BECAUSE I WAS RICH, WHY NOT?!?!). Does that make sense? You see...the minute a guy gives that sales guy 14k for a piece of wire + 2 plugs or 1000 bucks for toilet paper, the sales guy is laughing at him.... he is laughing at the bonafide imbecile that bought the 14k power wire or 1000 dollar toilet paper from him. "IF YOU ARE RICH, WHY NOT?".....mmhmm, I suppose the sales guy will need to find a fool for that line to work. |
Because those two mediums you mention will never sound as good and work as reliably as a wired connection. Most, if not all here, want the best sound they can get and that means using cables. All the best, |
