Could you elaborate? I've never heard of anything like that.:confused:

I don't own any headphones. I gave my Stax phones to a buddy. The feeling of sound coming from inside my head has always felt kind of creepy to me. As for an MP3 player for home use, you've got to be kidding.:D

As I have been saying the differences in my system are so obvious anyone and everyone can hear them. I'm talking about differences so obvious that when you walk in the door you know immediately the sound is not right.:D

As I said, in my home using my system the differences are glaringly obvious. If your gear doesn't have sufficient resolution to hear it, that's on you.:D

I had a fire in a second floor bedroom several years ago. I went to a public adjuster to deal with the insurance company. The insurance company tried in every way possible to minimize their expense. The public adjuster was the only reason I was able to get fair and or replacement value for my...

In my home with my rig I can hear the difference between an MP3 and the original RBCD file in every instance. The differences are so obvious double blind testing is unnecessary.:D

Go to www.passdiy.com go to speakers and read the pdf on El Pipe-O In order to make the smaller transmission line subs you need 2 6' lengths of 8" inside diameter Sonotube (concrete construction former), 2 8" woofers with a resonant frequency of 40Hz and a couple of resistors and caps for the...

If you blow tweeters you're driving your amp into clipping. You have insufficient power. If you blow woofers you have too much power. You can usually hear the woofers bottom out before they blow. :cool:

Have you considered constructing your own subwoofer(s). Take a look at the Pass Labs DIY site under speakers. At the end of the subwoofer article is what you may be looking for.:cool:

Your only real option in your price range is used. audiogon or ebay are your main options.:cool:

We are still involved in a war in Iraq that George Bush started with no real reason. I seriously doubt any Democrats would have started this war. The only ones gaining any benefit are the stockholders of Haliburton **** Chaney's company. Prior to his first election dubya said he was going to...

I can't disagree with that. Any gear that you are spending substantial cash on should get a home audition.:cool:

The truly sad thing is, just because a recording is on a "superior" format is no guarantee of superior sound.:mad: Cavediver, What's wrong with Jazz?:eek: caupina, There are lots of Jazz guitarists other than Pat Metheny. Give George Benson's older CTI recordings a try. He doesn't sing...

LOL!! To scam a scammer and actually have them send you cash!!!!! ROFLMAO!!!!!:eek: :D

jcPanny, you are correct. I just never think of "Blose" when it comes to gear. As always, the only way to buy speakers is to listen first. IMHO:D

If you try this on some decent gear it is easy to hear the difference.:D

Using any lossy compression scheme means that audiopile quality is not relevant. Even at the highest bit rate a direct comparison between a CD and a MP3 file will allow anyone to hear how much MP3 compression damages the music.:D

mtrycrafts believes that a cheap POS receiver is good enough for anything. There are those of us who strongly diasagree with him. I use an external DAC and I am happy with it. If you are curious my gear is listed under member syytems how much is your system worth.:cool:

A year or so ago he tried to tell me I was listening to my music on my sytem too loud! I just don't read most of his posts because they are not relevant to real world conditions.:D

There are two wires for each earspeaker. If you have a meter there will be a resistance between any two. Those two would be for one speaker. you will have to experiment to make sure you have them phased properly. I believe the tip of the jack is the left channel and the ring is the right. The...
