I have found out why new cables and tweaks actually work!
@galvarado69 : source of this controlled test?  
Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused
2022 thespeakerdude 107 posts 12-21-2022 at 10:22am @mijostyn , you have two people @donavabdear and me, who work professionally in the field, both apparently with physics backgrounds. As well I (and apparently @donavabdear) have worked with ... 
Tammy Holt ......She's what holds it all together.......Never gives up
Merry Christmas @tammyholt Tammy! Get some rest, a few days off  
I have found out why new cables and tweaks actually work!
So all this time you were happily listening with one or more cables having a connection problem? Hmmmmmm…..   Don’t laugh. I have been to a guy’s home showcasing his amp he had put up for sale. The entire left channel was off, and he seemed to h... 
T+A elektroakustik HV Series Components
@steve59 : I don’t know whether your issue is Amp related or not, but I can tell you with absolute certainty, the T+A HV amps ‘ integrated amps can drive ANY speakers out there with ease   
T+A elektroakustik HV Series Components
@blisshifi : I did get some details about the PSD, but I've been asked not to share too deeply until the product is released. That said, I can confide that the quality differences do go beyond the ares I provided above, and there are differences... 
Power cable break in?
Here they come!😂 Yup! You can count on them to pollinate every single cable thread every single time 😂🤷‍♂️. But wait… there are more…   P.S: I meant to say “pollute”, not “pollinate”, but then I figured it works just as well, so I left it up ... 
Streamer upgrade? follow up.
Congratulations! I know how it feels. It’s an amazing experience when it happens.   And kudos for trying a superior DAC, regardless of the “bits are bits, zeroes and ones” prior beliefs. It takes guts to overcome them. Unlike some who replace th... 
Accuphase and T+A
T+A is excellent, but with a frustratingly sparse dealer network. Probably not as wide of a dealer network as some other more popular brands, but definitely not sparse. And the North America T+A rep, David Schultz is very helpful. There are two... 
T+A elektroakustik HV Series Components
@steve59 : sure would like to get the A3000HV with a quality dac/pre to compare. Or you can get the PA 3100 (integrated amp, meaning an amp with preamp built in), then add a standalone DAC of your choice.   I agree, the price of SD / SDV (31... 
The best plug in filter ever!
@dogberry : Again, I will say I do not mind how other spend their money. It is when they tell us we should do the same that it is right to ask "Why?" and examine the responses carefully. Nothing wrong with asking “why”. Then it’s up to you whe... 
looking for the best cd transport only, without dac
Yup. Best thing ever since sliced bread 🙄. Biggest innovation in audio since 1947 🙄🤦‍♂️.  
Help optimizing my streaming setup
@erik_squires : very interesting find! And very affordable (audiophile language speaking obviously).  
Headphone amp and dac advice needed
You should consider wireless, ANC, BT headphones. I am not talking about cheap ones, or even AirPods from Apple, but, something better. Like the new T+A Solitaire T, which can also be ran passively (connected to a desktop headphones amp). Just cam... 
What can I do between the wall and my streamer/DAC?
Yeah... for that kind of length, I wouldn't consider buying any kind of after market ethernet cables.   Have you considered isolating your router from your audio system by using fiber media converters?
