As I said I do not use phrases “soul” of “soul-less”. Perhaps I have enough grip of it in audio and do not need to trade “soul” in place of plate currents or polarity of cables. Sure, we all chaise the self-selected ghosts regardless what we do. It ...

I have to admit that since I went for DHT on MF channel I go get a number of positive moments in sound but I also lost some aspects of imaging. Do you remember I reported that using two different DHT tube on right and left channels I had strange ...

you have put one of his quotes under your post, so I guess you do. Despite not being inclined to take much note of anything other then your own 'philosophy', (which is fine), at least in this case you seem to do go with someone else. Nietzsche ha...

... to pass data unchanged.I've been ripping my CDs (using EAC and a Plextor CD-ROM drive) for about 4 years now. I use Foobar with ASIO (and now with WASAPI also) as the software player, loaded onto a Sony laptop. The soundcard is an RME FF800.Now t...

Scooter, I was thinking myself if it was a pirated CD and I very carefully inspected it, I did not found any signs of not authenticity but I am not expect in it. To me it looks like a legitimate DG album. Though I admit that with contemporary mea...

I am no expert on digital although I certainly read a lot on DSD and DVD-A back in the day. However, once you use the standard D/A chip as lampizator acknowledges, you are at the point of a tweaker for the rest. It is like a speaker manufacturer who ...

...But they are poorly implemented. Something to do with the 24/192 conversion. AFAIK nowadays most recordings are done 24/96, but it will eventually go up when higher resolution devices becomes the standard (I think about Prism, but theres more).Out...

[quote user="Telstar"]-ST or double ST: probably the best interface. Low jitter, completely isolated. Unseen in any soundcard, requires modding. Very few DACs accepts it (to my memory Esoteric D70, audio sintesys dax, something from Zanden)[/quote]Wh...

Well, maybe a little cussing first to set the tone. The older SPU's are now well sought after, many will end up in collections at now over inflated prices probably in the Far-East where they are worshipped. I've heard a few older SPU's and even those...

Nonetheless, very impressive technology for the price. That's their top-of-the-line unit, supplied with their top-of-the-line offboard PSU, with very impressive-looking fit and finish, and all for just over CAN$4k. It also appears to have very refine...

Another hobby that I'm involved with is saltwater aquariums. People used to enter the hobby as children when they would get their first 10 gallon aquarium as gift or hand me down. Now kids would rather play video games then actually mess with a hobby...

Romy, does this mean you got your tweaked Bidat back from John? I already posted about the most recent changes John made to my idat, and I mentioned in the course of that exposition that I would be open to trying some other cable.I am still using t...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Lynx has internal dabbler that activated as soon dual-wire inputs activated. So, when Pacific outputs in dual-wire configuration a half of the sampling speed then is done in accordance to the dual-wire specification.[/quote...

romy, you said, you would place a 60hz midbass on the side, is this still your opinion? of, course i found no other solution in my small room. will do it the way you suggested, 60-300, 300-1000(thinking about gpa 288h(s2 is too expensive for me), may...

Sakuma's idiosyncratic and esoteric way of thinking (he believes for example that tubes have a "soul") is not to everyone's liking. He is projecting his mind into a sort of tone control. At least for him this tone control brings him nearer to th...

Hello Romy,Thanks for your reply. I'm also of your age and I do agree that these other 'esoteric' subjects first rose up strongly when I was in my teens. However, since then I've realised those things have real value in terms of imagining...

I know that in audio we use fucked-up terminology that over the course of years audio propaganda pimps of all calibers impended into minds of feeble audio people. High-End Audio in today world means nothing that what I feel, is it possible to cle...

Obviously I have not carefully read everything you've written about Melquiades, mostly because I have just been stopped in my tracks by the ML2s, so I still have a lot to think about as it is. But if anything could "sell" Melquiades I'd guess i...

It is one of those curious facts that Golden Ages generally occur quite early in the process of some domain of activity and then things slowly go downhill. In other words the Golden Age is followed by the Silver Age then the Bronze Age then the Slag ...

Well. That dude down my street in the esoteric shop would say "i feel negative vibration is in the air here"...Though "only positive counts" may sound very positive in the first place, it rather seems to be used for discrediting majority of opinions....

Even if you wish to spend a few days in Paris, all you have to do is step onto the Eurostar and alight there a couple of hours later. As for baroque recitals, Oxford was a good place for those when I was there, and once more, not far from London. Do ...

Romy, just a quick response for now... a longer one another day.The Model Two definitely detects HDCD in the BSO files (just as the Esoteric D70 does). I have the PMI set to DD88-88 and am monitoring DIG_IN (with the word clock set to Master).But the...
