| Yeracito Master Series Unfortunately, I think that some producers boost the upper frequencies to give the music a superficial “wow” factor, which eventually ends up as listener fatigue. An old story, really. Speaker designers do it too. Hundreds of threads here over th... | |
| Amir and Blind Testing I have to chime in here just to say that I am gratified to see an actual discussion of a topic as opposed to the “wresting-match” mentality these things often take on. DCS vs MSB. Bruno Sammartino vs Dr. Tanaka, etc. Too much of a battle scenario... | |
| Amir and Blind Testing @spenav- thank you for the compliment, but it was Amir who actually articulated it when he spoke about the analytical brain as opposed to the music-listening brain. Like you, I have felt this for a long time, but couldn’t crystallize the idea as w... | |
| Amir and Blind Testing Amir from Audio Science Review. Quite prolific and a great believer in measurements. | |
| Amir and Blind Testing I know. I usually mark my calendar for a month before making any conclusions. But it’s not just blind testing. By Amir’s logic, any back and forth testing would be invalid, except, I would imagine, in the most egregious of cases. | |
| New speaker cables I think the argument that cables don’t matter has gotten garbled through too many repetitions. I believe the actual argument is that two cables with the same resistance, capacitance and inductance will sound identical. It has been shown through me... | |
| Looks like PS Audio has a hit on their hands with the new speaker The guy that bought them doesn’t seem overly thrilled. At 28k, I would want to demo in my own room before buying | |
| Looking at Turntable: belt drive or direct drive? I think the Pioneer DD would be the best choice for a first table. Just get your feet wet with analog and see if you want to continue playing records. Some people get too neurotic with record cleaning and turntable setup and constantly worry about... | |
| Looks like PS Audio has a hit on their hands with the new speaker Maybe it’s just me, but I would not consider buying the first product from a company that has never made that type of product before. Nothing against PSA in particular, but if I’m spending a decent amount of money I would like the dust to settle f... | |
| Seeking some info on Allnic L-3000 Before buying a piece like that used, I would find out where it can be serviced if something breaks. It’s not easy to find a good tech who has the schematics. | |

| An electrical engineer on how power cables can impact sound quality “That’s not an argument. It is simply contradiction.” ”No it isn’t.” ”Saying “”No it isn’t “” isn’t an argument.” ”Yes it is.” | |
| Dumping it all for Lyngdorf??? @rbrertalotto- it’s good to save up for things, but from where I sit, everything I want to buy jumps $500 every time I turn around. Maybe better to buy on credit and pay a few months interest. Just sayin. Also, if the 8 watt tube amp is what you ... | |
| Dumping it all for Lyngdorf??? If you’re that happy with the speakers, I would consider the matching sub. It supposedly has good room correction ability. Remember also that if you love the speakers, part of the reason, perhaps a big part, is because they are well matched with t... | |
