Why Do Cables Matter?
Also curious why the worlds most complicated and refined machines mankind has ever made that literally have to be accurate to within nano meters in making electronic chips use regular power cables. These are $500M machines, look up the power suppl... 
Why Do Cables Matter?
@knownothing My argument was just called a name it wasn't dealt with as you say. My argument is that you can't get more information out of the recording than the original. I recorded original recording for 35 years I've been to the Oscars and Emmy... 
Used PS Audio BHK 300 monoblock or (2) new benchmark ahb2 bridged?
PS Audio BHK 300s are really musical as well as the BHK Preamp, when I change any of these components my system it looses all its magic, the PS Audio components are noisy and it drives me crazy but no other amps or preamps make me so happy. The BH... 
Why Do Cables Matter?
@hilde45  There are exceptions to the "can't add information" rule such as speakers. There are very few studios that use speakers over $50k there are good reasons for that but as far as audiophiles that commonly use speakers over 50k they may be ... 
Why Do Cables Matter?
@yoyoyaya thanks for your response.  #1 You can't add information to a recording. #2 Recording studios don't use very expensive interconnects and speaker cable. #3 Since #1 and #2 are true it is illogical to use cables that are more expensive th... 
Best Amplifier & Speakers combo?
If you get powered speakers they will be a perfect match.  
Why Do Cables Matter?
If you understand the principle that the original recording can't be made any better (you can't add information) to the signal then audiophiles should know that no recording studio uses boutique expensive cable. So cables that are more expensive t... 
My thoughts on the HiFi Rose 150B
@nadimjaber You’re right the Rose 150 would be great if it was a Roon Core that’s all it’s missing. If at all possible use the Is2 connector it keeps all the signals separate even your clock information, USB connections are always rough and sorry ... 
My thoughts on the HiFi Rose 150B
@nadimjaber I've had a 150B for about a month now with a separate PS Audio Mk 2 DAC, I think it sounds wonderful, the extra video outputs are so much fun and they sound good as well, I'm enjoying watching videos of songs I love. There are many fea... 
AES/EBU cable shootout
@ghasley I hear you, no doubt that good people with great ears hear huge improvements with cables, I have drank the Kool Aid myself just in case I was wrong. Hey I have over 70 speakers in my house and 4 Dolby Atmos systems, 1 professional. its r... 
AES/EBU cable shootout
So just think of this, everyone agrees the signal isn’t going to get any better because of cables. So if the original studio or location sound recording doesn’t use these uber expensive cables of any sort (AC, interconnects, speaker) doesn’t that ... 
AES/EBU cable shootout
@thyname I understand, I love your audio system it seems you have some expensive cables, you must have some objective reason for buying them. Have a nice day.  
AES/EBU cable shootout
@thyname Sorry you are making the wrong argument, you aren't keeping the signal the same as it is originally you are only at best keeping the signal the same at the level it enters your speakers there is a world of difference between original and ... 
AES/EBU cable shootout
@thyname Well argue your point then don't simply put me down, I don't care if it's technical or practical. The question is do cables make a sound system better. No one including the OP is saying that cables don't make a difference they must be up ... 
AES/EBU cable shootout
@steakster You say "cable-deniers" does that mean people who don't think cables will make a system sound better? I asked many cable manufactures at AXPONA what cables do for a sound system only 1 manufacture, Beldon, had an answer. Most of them sa...
