| Tidal vs Hi Res Files vs CD vs “Netflix”. My test. Incredible! OPThanks for the work. I never compared, but I also get surprisingly good sound via fios cable service: tv/amazon/netflix/you tube ..... Please clarify the Netflix setup, chain from the street/air if satellite. All your streaming comes from the ... | |
| Tidal vs Hi Res Files vs CD vs “Netflix”. My test. Incredible! Great thread, the best response is from the recording engineer: BITS are BITS. PIXELS are PIXELS.source file, unadulterated, to speaker via minimum equipment and non-altering software is the best 'truth' you can get. But, as he said, you may prefe... | |
| Your favourite music movie? kudos to OP, this is a terrific thread. | |
| Speaker selector app. brskie thanks, that sounds correct, including someone else being Elliott. You seem to know the different spelling as well as Kasey.I was only in the store, drop in without an appointment, a few times, just an impressive memory.I didn't have muc... | |
| Thoughts wanted for new speaker design Oh yeah, be sure and have low power amps playing them when you demo them, the true way to reveal their efficiency beyond words.Perhaps both a low powered SS amp, and a Tube preamp and tube amp. Maybe a modern integrated tube amp with remote volume... | |

| Stylus not tracking and sounds terrible NEW Cartridge, New Stylus, Perfect Alignment: Nirvana | |
| Speaker selector app. The app should have a footnote**Unless you have deep pockets, and a LARGE dedicated listening space, allowing tested and determined speaker placement, seeking extended bass is unadvisable! | |
| McIntosh MA2275 - opinions I forgot, thus, for phono playback: the bass has to be boosted back to normal, and the highs have to be cut back to normal. That is what the RIAA phono eq circuit does.If a TT cartridge output is plugged into a line level input (without RIAA eq or... | |
| McIntosh MA2275 - opinions RIAA phono eq is how LP (long playing) records were achieved.During recording, the bass signals are cut, thus smaller/narrower grooves are needed/made by the cutter. Move narrow grooves = Long Playing. At the same time, the highs are boosted, enla... | |
| McIntosh MA2275 - opinions Your McIntosh C22 Preamp is totally tube. It's RIAA phono eq and phono 'low' level signal boost, up to 'high/line' level are done by tubes, then sent to any amp, in your case a tube amp with 1 set of inputs. A moving magnet LP cartridge (most c... | |

All the money saved by not chasing perfect electrons will also give you the opportunity of having two systems, one Solid State, the other Tube.A mix of Digital and Analog source equipment. Here again, the differences are easily audible, and comes... |
