| Chinese fake cables How fake, how good? I love my fake chinese cables, they sound really good and I paid my honest money for them. I know that these cables don't really have a resale value and I'm good with that. All of you virtue can go out and over pay if you want, just try not to act... | |
| Schiit Aegir-Burn in Period @yyzsantabarbara The Schitt Yggi+ Less Is More DAC looks like a pretty good deal, I would imagine that it just oozes a quality sound. A fews months ago I replaced my denafrips ares with a used gustard A26 for a pretty good price. I think it went a... | |
| Schiit Aegir-Burn in Period @yyzsantabarbara I got my Aegir 2 about a week ago and the wpc isn't an issue for music at all. I do watch some TV shows off the internet, so on one occasion I turned up the volume on a weak but bassy audio signal that had the woofers visibly boun... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @goofyfoot I use to do maintenance at an apartment complex years ago and changing outlets was not uncommon. Most of the time I would shut the easily accessible breaker off, but every now and then I would get cocky or lazy and would change it whil... | |
| Schiit Aegir-Burn in Period @yyzsantabarbara I just watched a review comparing the Aegir 2 to a Vidar 2 amp also made by schitt and that amp sounded promising as well. The Aegir has already shipped and it’s just as well because it’s the only way I’ll know for sure if it’s wh... | |
| Schiit Aegir-Burn in Period @yyzsantabarbara I have the Freya + and that has XLR outs on it. I didn't realize until this morning that Shiit has another amp with about 60 wpc the RAGNAROK 2. It is a $100 more. Well like you say there's a 15 home trial but I would imagine that... | |
| Schiit Aegir-Burn in Period I just ordered an Aegir 2 amp yesterday and I'm a little wary over if going to be enough power for my B&W 706 s2 speakers. The minimum wpc of the B&W's is 30 the same as the max of Aegir 2 is 30. I have been using an Emotiva BasX A4 bi-amp... | |
| Paypal drastic changes @carlsbad2 I was wondering what the girls on the corner were selling | |
| Paypal drastic changes Well, someones got to fund the payroll of the Ukrainian goverment and their retirement fund. | |
| Equalizer in a Hi Fi system I use EQ software (APO 1.2.1) which is noiseless and to my ear the adjustments I made improve over all sound. I have an aluminum tweeter that can cause listening fatigue and a small ajustment eliminates the problem. | |
| At what price is one considered an Audiophile. @deep_333 I do think guys are more motivated toward the gear aspect of audio. However with steaming available I listen more than I ever had. Back in the 1990's I built a system modeled after Cory Greenberg's (stereophile) poormans hi end rig a... | |
| At what price is one considered an Audiophile. @jacobsdad2000 Just had Dylan Mulvany delivering my free Bud Light. 🤣 and she/he asked what an Audiophile was. Bud light comes in real handy when you need target practice. 🎯 | |
| At what price is one considered an Audiophile. @jacobsdad2000 Sorry and I don't mean anthing bad about anbody and at this site I have never noticed (and not saying there isn't) any obvious females talking about audio gear. But I do suspect behind every audiophile that is married or lives with... | |
| At what price is one considered an Audiophile. @jacobsdad2000 I think one of the qualifications is that you are a man, I don't know any women that fall prey to this addictive habit/hobby of ours. Maybe transgenders do but I don't know of any. | |
| Something Fishy with Brian Hoyer @jacobsdad2000 I know that he is a raider just like I know Deshaun Watson is with the browns. I was trying to join in what I perceived as a joke about a guy ripping off people at audiogon who has the same name as a pro QB in the NFL. Having to exp... |
