| Need speaker recommendations. If you do not mind active speakers, try GoldenEar Triton Reference speakers. They are exactly within your budget and superb. | |
| Audio nonsense @dill Yes. Please send me your list and I will categorize them for you with even an "oilyness factor" number. After all, it is not brain surgery, very simple and logical. | |
| Audio nonsense I guess most people are STILL.... missing the point :-) Nobody is criticizing the sound you listen to and like. It may be full of distortion, artifacts or perfect. If you LIKE listening to it, good for you. Nobody cares. Love of sound is subjecti... | |
| Audio nonsense Thanks @mijostyn | |
| Audio nonsense @perkri If you want to go into a pi...g contest about credentials, be my guest. And yes I have built audio gear. I have worked with RF, which is at least a 1000 times more complex than building audio frequency gear. I am an electronics engineer... | |
| Audio nonsense @perkri I can recommend a good audiologist and maybe even a psychiatrist if you are hearing things.... Anyone on this forum over about 35-40 years of age should have some humility and not claim and pretend they can hear things even a dog cannot... | |
| It comes with a balance knob?!?! I'll take it! Room geometry & acoustics. Balance control & loudness/tone controls are absolutely necessary. Look at your birthday & Fletcher Munson curves if you do not agree. | |

| Audio nonsense @dill I have not tried jumping off a cliff but i do not have to try it to find out that it will kill me. Some snake oils are so much more oily and ridiculous, i do not even have to listen to the rest of the sales pitch beyond the first word. | |
| Audio nonsense Boutiqe fuses, cable lifters, ridiculously priced power cords, speaker wires and signal wires. | |
| Streaming Sound Quality - Want the very best sound quality? Network Acoustics ENO... Thank you, finally you are realizing it 👍 | |
| Streaming Sound Quality - Want the very best sound quality? Network Acoustics ENO... @soma70 i know what i know. Most auidophiles (or phools sometimes) suffer from the "i paid more so i must be hearing better" syndrome, especially about wires , fuses and networking gear. Listen to what @invalid has commented. That is almost alwa... | |
| Streaming Sound Quality - Want the very best sound quality? Network Acoustics ENO... There is no clocking in ethernet transmission. IT IS ASYNCHRONOUS. Do not spend your money on frivolous stuff like switches and cables. Most basic cables, AS LONG AS THEY ARE WITHIN 802.11 specs will work PERFECTLY. Spend your money on the DAC in... | |
| Chord Qutest Thanks for all your answers. Appreciated. | |
| High end cartridge MM cartridges are: - provide higher output voltage hence have a better S/N ratio. - Need less sophisticated and hence cheaper phono amplifiers. - Styli are user changeable. - Punchier in the bass frequencies. Nagaoka MP500 for example is supe... |
