| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? There seems to be competing explanations of the recording file format characteristics. This is a maths and physics question and should be able to be resolved. Then there are subjective experiences and these are equally conflicting. There are area... | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? Just read this lighter version towards the maths and physics of these two formats: Scientific American 2017 article | |
| Best value Set amp for under $1500 used is ok. @westborn Lol you should hear these speakers with my cheap Marantz AVR. Simply amazing, seriously. I’ve sold the Luxman M900u. My Audio Research D240 MKII here is in need of service. My other D240 MKII is in the USA, smashed by FedEx who are not... | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? @fair Ref: your long tech commentary and explanation above. This is the single best explanation I’ve (ever) heard. Thanks for taking the time to write this here. | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? @wturkey do you have a link? G’day @thespeakerdude An esoteric question I admit, just wondering if 2 channel speakers present digital and analog audio in the same way or do the different audio profiles get presented in different ways by the same ... | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? Is the impact of 2 channel speaker systems equal for either source? Regarding Atmos as a multi source format, I wonder how robust it is vs say binaural recording playback. My impression also is that Auro3D is more ‘immersive’ and therefore more a... | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? Video below points to a number of measurements differences Good description of differences between Vinyl and Digital | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? Thanks Eric and all others here. There is an almost immediate recognition but probably not foolproof double blind test differential between these two formats, isn’t there? The apparent open spaciousness and feeling of lightness airiness not on al... | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? Other issues emerge in this conversation such as phase shift pre echo vs pre ringing, and so on. I’ve always wondered how bass interacts with our hearing to subdue and enhance the listening experience. Good bass (whatever that is) seems to support... | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? Thanks to all for a civil conversation here. Jitter, distortion, noise and mid and high frequency performance that seems to align with natural hearing sensitivity are raised as axis of differences. | |
| What am I missing? Convenience? Streaming Quality streaming? Tidal over Qobuz that sounds a tad forward for me. YMMV and by the numbers probably does. SACD over CD - But by this stage it’s recording rather than format. Vinyl who? My tt has been wrapped up for a ye... | |
| Power conditioner vs use of a audio grade outlet? So OP did you consider the Furutech wall plugs? | |
| Best value Set amp for under $1500 used is ok. There seems to be a number of upgrades available for this amp by Skunkie Design Electronics. 🦨 I may just upgrade the 6sn7 tubes with the lower grade Linlai tubes in the near future after arrival. | |
| My first tube integrated: which one to get? Have you made a choice yet? There are two thoughts to share from me: One, how much of the tube experience do you want? Push pull amps like Prima Luna and Line Magnetic sound like softish SS amps. So not much different to SS amps. Two, whilst yo... | |
| Best value Set amp for under $1500 used is ok. Indeed @charles1dad the price was the key feature along with many reviews. I have a Krell DUO XD300 in the process of sale that will fund this purchase. Then I may also fund the repair to another D240 MK II that was destroyed by FedEx who would n... |
