    Speaker break-in / burn-in

    So, in full disclosure I think this concept is mostly nonsense, but to their credit this company has an actual experiment they perform over time showing a benefit from over several hours of burn in on their subwoofer driver. Prior to this the best I’ve ever seen is a few minutes, but usually...

    $70,000 in cables anyone?

    I came across this review on $70,000 MSRP of cables made buy MasterBuilt. The reviewer is a total clown. It's worth reviewing... Cables from SPACE! "The four partners involved in the development, design, and creation of (MasterBuilt) products are all full-time employees of a leading aerospace...

    Statement about amps

    I believe that it should not cost a premium for a manufacturer to build, and market, or for a customer to buy a 100w 2 channel 4 ohm stable amp, that is sonically neutral and transparent from the source material. Change my mind Considerations... *And yes, since I don't believe that this above...

    What if your audio hobby was killing folks?

    I have a slight amount of pity for responsible owners of assault firearms. Most do the right thing, and they enjoy shooting them at the range. So what would you do if (hypothetically) your audio hobby could cause this level of potential harm? Would you be like that guy who’s sawed his AR15 in...

    Focal Shape 65

    https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Shape65 Has anyone heard (or heard of) this speaker? Focal is using their newly designed aluminum magnesium alloy tweeter dome, which I know nothing about. The Be model sounds amazing but is hundreds more. This might be a situation where close enough is...

    Toobs are for Boobs

    I've never understood the fascination with tube amps for playback. I've heard many of them, and I simply never hear anything odd or unusual, or most of all, preferential. In my experience, with the exception of hot cheap garbage, the vast majority of amps (tube and solid state) are sonically...

    Audio Press Adjectives

    Can anyone point me to their favorite use of BAD non-audio adjectives in the audio press?

    Do Cheap Cables Matter?

    I came across some copper clad aluminum speaker cables, 14 awg. 100' was like 10$ at Fry's and I needed something that day. I haven't done a proper comparison, but I can't tell anything detrimental, at least right off the bat. Has anyone else experimented with CCA wire? As I understand it, it...

    Why do you want to own an Assault Rifle?

    Yes, why do you want to own an assault rifle? Or any other paramilitary firearm? This question doesn’t include firearms specifically designed for game. The answer is obvious. Seriously, it seems like a total waste of money that you could spend on audio gear which you'd enjoy every day.

    What's your Speaker Demo Track List?

    Here's Mine! OVERALL Aja, Steely Dan: This is my all around everything track. Not only did the Annandale duo record and engineer this album incredibly well, it simply has it all, vocal range, acoustical variety, highs, mids, lows, sub bass, imaging, and depth. The Holy Men, World...

    Stephen King

    Stephen King could be governor of or senator from Maine if he wanted. This actually doesn't scare me. Now, reading Salem's Lot when you're only 14 years old and having to leave the lights on in your bedroom is a different story.

    So Digital Cables DO Matter...

    http://www.audiostream.com/content/cables-bits-and-noise-how-cables-can-make-sound-difference At least according to this article. I haven't checked or followed up, and I certainly don't promote nor (outright) deny his opinion, but he claims to have done measurements, which would be the first...
