| Do Audiophiles Hear Real Differences, or Are They Justifying Expensive Purchases? Do you have a blog? This feels like a blog entry posted as a forum thread. It seems as if the key variable is system resolution. In modest or poorly placed systems, cable differences are inaudible, which explains why blind tests so often show no ... | |
| Your turntable history Thorens TD166, 1986 - 1996 or so. Gave it all up. No regrets. | |
| Getting better audio answers from AI Just got back from travel and digging through this thread. Three things jump out. So some folks are saying, "If it needs all these instructions, why not just ask a human?" I get it. But that misses what's actually happening. The instructions aren... | |
| Items from audiophile's estate, list and photos link provided; helpful advice appreciated! Thanks and good luck. In my view, it would be most effective to simply list descriptions in text of the items and prices if you can. The idea of going to a google drive and opening a pdf of a stranger is not something I want to do. But maybe that'... | |
| What type of cables make the most difference My two cents: Power cables get called "most transformative" a lot, but that's asserted more than demonstrated.

| Startling AI results. What you’ve stumbled onto is actually a really important lesson about AI — and it’s not that AI is necessarily unreliable, but that AI takes your question literally and tries to answer it. "What is the weak link" signals you want a general assess... | |
| Subwoofers RSL speedwoofer vs Rel or SVS Rythmik subs should be considered. | |
| Is Budget Audiophile an oxymoron? The room is half the sound. | |

| Power Cable Suggestions. I was kinda testing you ;-) | |
| I am not a robot I remember getting crap from people for not posting on audio in an audio forum. It appears times have changed, so I'd like to complain about how hard it is to open the packaging for my Mach III razor blades. Who's with me? I'm also not crazy ab... |
