Gene - let's stay on point to your original quote: what are your sources to back up your claims that analog loses something in conversion to digital, and that such conversions have nothing to do with ADA?

(Sigh) The paper is spot-on. Let's take this one step at a time: Do tell - how do you transfer to digital and play back an analog recording without ADA? Simply put, the analog recording loses nothing in conversion to digital and back to analog when done competently. Site your peer-reviewed...

Nope. Myth, assuming competent equipment and methods. One of many examples of the actual truth of the matter: http://www.drewdaniels.com/audible.pdf

There is nothing "pretty cool" about a $7k CD player. What a shameless sellout to commercial interests over common sense and what is really needed for robust digital audio. But I guess we'll be seeing more Yamaha ads on this site, just like we saw more Core Audio ads after that embarassing...

Excellent, informative and objective article that is BS-free and conforms to common sense and scientific methods. More like this. If what I want is offered by Blue Jeans, they get my business going forward (never really knew much about them until now).

If the scientific method did not exist, your approach would make as much sense as any other. But given that we do have the scientific method, appealing to anything else when such methods are deeply relevant (as they are for this subject matter) is a far cry from the best form of truth as we...

I heartily agree with the desire to return Audioholics to what it does best: no-nonsense information and reviews for music and music gadget lovers, fallacy-free and with judgments based on the scientific method. There are plenty of sites already that do adviews and pile on the hype with...

This article reads like an ad, not a review. "But if you want to make the best sound you can hear portable, this is the way to do it." Where are the review measurements to back up that judgment? Compared to what other products and measurement benchmarks? The quoted judgment seems only backed...

Anything from NuForce is highly suspect for me, so I'll withold judgment until a complete review comes out. NuForce did not conduct themselves well and were exposed to have made a pretty poor product with their uDAC-2, and the problems seemed systemic to the company (google "nwavguy nuforce...

Wow, I'm a bit disappointed to say what a fragmented, disjointed piece. I love the intent and content of Audioholics, but the grammatical structure and paragraphing of this editorial really messed with my ability to understand its key points. I believe I figured out the following, eventually...

Cliff, thanks for the info. I think an article on extending wireless range would be informative. I've tried several of the options you listed, and a variant of Option A is the best I've found, but far from perfect. I tried Option A as you described, but my laptops and phones did not "hop"...

Any insight on consumer products that use 802.11s (mesh networking) to make adding a connection more easily? I thought this standard (finalized more than 2 years ago) would have been immediately added to products by the likes of linksys and netgear, but i can't seem to find any consumer...

Meh. HDMI in any of its forms were DOA technologically, having been crippled with a parallel form of communciation that is at the heart of its difficulty or inability to be used over distances needed in many homes. HDMI would be wise to switch to a serial communication method to essentially...
