| Who is Gonna Buy A New Jeep Grand Wagoneer For the MacIntosh Stereo? holmz Well that's a lot cheaper than buying a Jeep. 😂 @erik_squires the app crashes occasionally, does that count? | |
| Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why? holmz +1 - time domain response has significant SQ impact.it also has to include small signal steps, scaling to max power level to check dynamics Which dynamics @westcoastaudiophile ? We are not talking about impulse response anymore are we? A... | |
| Cable burn in @felixa A cable is a mechanical system that needs burn-in. Every material subject to an electrical field creates a dipole. For non conducting material this dipole is at the atom level so that electrons are more to the side of nucleus that... | |
| I don't get LRS and cheap Ayima AO7 amp I'm interested in this Aiyima amp. I bought a Tripath amp based on Rolox's recommendation. It sounds lovely with my Closer Acoustics OGY. But I wish I had more power for orchestral music. With other music it's plenty loud. With the A-07 one use... | |
| Who is Gonna Buy A New Jeep Grand Wagoneer For the MacIntosh Stereo? I'm surprised there isn't an iPad app that turns your tablet into McIntosh meters you can put in front of your TV and call it a McIntosh. @erik_squires there is such an app 😀 | |
| Primaluna or not Primaluna Several of your sugestions is not availeble in Sweden (where I live). If I was in the US it would be pretty easy to order an amplifier from some small interesting brand and have the option to return it in, say, 60-days, if I don’t like it. That... | |
| Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why? holmz As for checking out virtual systems there is a text box beneath each one with a link "read more" which expands it. The links I mentioned are embedded in the description of my system. The FR is impressive. Were there any time domain meas... | |
| Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why? As for the topic of "blind testing" it just isn’t necessary or practical. Look, I drop a component in the rack and let it break in for a few weeks. I take it out before the 30 day return period expires. If I can’t tell a difference send it back. ... | |
| Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why? holmz , It was stated correctly that this is a thread about measurements. Why not post some to discuss? It is a starting point, not a destination, OK? Yeah - it could be interesting, but it is a lot easier to measure gear than an in room syst... | |
| Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why? OK, let’s get back to basics then, soon as your post your system, the pics, the measurements we can discuss. For what point? Gear shaming? Or some other strawman argument? Maybe we should just stick to factual things? For instance the high... | |
| Gain / Amplification If it is just divider at the input then first point doesn’t apply, but reduction of IC noise pickup is still important It totally applies there @kijanki - imagine 10 nV on the IC and then amplifying that small, medium or large. Small is always... | |
| Primaluna or not Primaluna As tube-amp.: PrimaLuna isn’t à “wohw”-amp. , not bad but more An amp for “beginners”. :sound is à little bit sharp, not so detailfull, is very open. I am not sure what: sharp and detail full mean, but I would expect sharp to be detailfull... | |
| I don't get LRS and cheap Ayima AO7 amp Interesting story, I have an real nice tube amp Harbeth analogue system setup which is great. I ordered a Magnepan LRS for the goof a while back. Got it like 5 months later didnt think twice as it was put aside. I needed a cheap amp and DAC for a... | |
| Gain / Amplification Ok, dumb question maybe….maybe the more troll-like members could chill on this one. Nice polemic opening. 😉 (But many of the “trolls” seem to be more rooted in engineering and theory.) I was just wondering, is there likely a quality-of-... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts holmz I have moved on, have you? Yeah literally we have moved on! @noske is about 9 hours ahead of your time zone, and I am an even 1/2 day ahead. |
