| The Midnight Effect - Who-How? @cleeds Thank you for the info. Do I understand correctly, that some AM stations have to operate at lower power at night (and critical hours), while "some" means stations that operate at frequencies of other (older?) stations? | |
| The Midnight Effect - Who-How? Electromagnetic radiation or ambient electrical noise may play some role, but we are also getting quiet at the evening. Our internal noise is reduced and focus increased (and the booze of course). @cleeds They have to operate at reduced power,... | |
| The Midnight Effect - Who-How? @cleeds This is from FCC website: "Most AM radio stations are required by the FCC's rules to reduce their power or cease operating at night in order to avoid interference to other AM stations. FCC rules governing the daytime and nighttime oper... | |
| The Midnight Effect - Who-How? Radio stations have to reduce transmitting power at the evening per FCC regulation. It is Section 73.187 of the Federal Communications Commission's rules to reduce power from 2 hours before local sunset to 2 hours after local sunrise. | |
| Loud vs. Tactile Bass Many years ago I replaced 2.5 way with a bit larger 3 way speakers - same 30Hz extension, same amount of bass, equally tactile. The difference was in the sound of the bass - attack and decay, became more natural, more melodic. IMHO it is not bet... | |
| Wool Blankets as Room treatment Check out on second page sound absorption vs frequency. I have 2" thick 817 panels (never installed). | |
| Wool Blankets as Room treatment It will help with slap echo, but it will do nothing for mid and low frequencies. Put wool blanket over your head while playing music - what you can hear will be reflected from the wall. Even 2" thick double density (heavy), acoustic rigid fiber... | |
| Which external SSD for music streaming? To play CD music you need at least 0.18 MB/s. Any SSD will do. Buy extra one for backup. | |
| Bananas rule, spades drool. End of discussion. All Jeff Rowland amps use Cardas clamp for spades (or bare wires). It does not accept bananas. It creates extremely strong connection and rotating spade won't make it loose. I have small Rowland 102 with speaker connector and it is great (othe... | |
| Do You Buy Speakers Without Hearing Them? I bought once great speakers from few states away and then company went bankrupt. Why? Because of poor dealership base. They had only 3 places for whole US to demo them. Still love them, but there is no support in case of any problems. | |
| Easy Come Easy Go…….BOOM! Sorry for your ordeal. 63,000 amps as a peak current is not that much. I have two Siemens protectors in parallel mounted in panel - each rated 60,000 amps peak. The question is how they rated your surge, peak or average and if average then over wh... | |
| Fiber Internet You attach your own Wifi router to the Verizon modem or router via Ethernet. And when you do set ATT modem/router to IP pass through mode, to avoid double address translation. My ATT doesn't allow "Bridge" mode, since they want to keep some f... | |
| ENGLISH ELECTRIC EE-1 High-performance network noise isolator ? Yay or Nay? Jitter is not present in transfers since Ethernet doesn't work in real time (data in packets) and I doubt that electrical noise injected by the cable can affect sharp edges of DAC's internal clock enough to create audible jitter artifacts. Electr... | |
| How best to arrange cables in this room... While I don't disagree with what you say, I worry about loops of cable are the basic inductor shown in any electrical physics book. It is a small inductor, but it is an inductor. Coiling wire increases inductance, but coiling cable doesn't, s... | |
| jitter Jitter is created in D/A or A/D conversion by uneven/jittery conversion clock. Jitter produces added noise and once conversion is completed it becomes permanent. We can prevent D/A conversion jitter few ways before conversion, but in case of A/D... |
