Different perceptions on different days?
It is one possibility. As such, it should remain among the probable answers so long as we have not run a test strongly suggesting otherwise. You and most people don't do that, instead you cherry-pick the answer that you wish to be true, out of an experience full of known flaws. If someone...- castleofargh

Different perceptions on different days?
Instead of that false logic/excuse, let’s look at the facts: Humans can get to feel sound differences when there is none. It happens, it has been and can be demonstrated. Knowing that, it becomes self evident that when dealing with what we can hear, we need a way to confirm if we made it up or...- castleofargh

Speed of Electricity in a Cable
Ideally, yes, the antenna would be related to the wavelength we're trying to capture(at least I think it's the same for emission and reception, but it's clearly not something I'm understanding well so I might be full of crap). Note that most considerations are in an attempt to get something...- castleofargh

Speed of Electricity in a Cable
In this context, they're the same thing, electromagnetic waves at different frequencies. When you move further away from a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi source you get the same impact(plus walls which are rarer in space ^_^).- castleofargh

What were your mistakes you made buying your first or buying any IEM?
Trusting reviews.:rage: Thinking that if I spent big money, I'd get to enjoy a flawless experience. Getting IEMs with absurdly high sensitivity, not thinking much of it, even though I had nothing with a background quiet enough to avoid audible hiss(and I hate hiss!). I spent a lot of time and a...- castleofargh

Reading Graphs: Are Measurements Representative of Sonic Experience?
20Hz is too low for most people to hear. With a subwoofer, you get the tactile impact of such low frequencies as they literally shake your body, so you wouldn't want a lot of that anyway (it's common for sound engineers to set a high pass of 6 or 12dB somewhere around 30Hz). With headphones...- castleofargh

32 Interconnect Cables Measured and Listened to!
I don't get it. Looks like he tried to measure analog cables to determine which one would be the fastest digital cable. He's pretty much bringing eye pattern analysis into analog audio cables for no good reason. And he does it in such a way that we have even less knowledge about how to... -

If you have the education and skills you claim to have on your blog, then you have to do this constant deception game on purpose. That's unforgivable. If you don't have the education and skills you claim to have, then it means you even lied about that.- castleofargh

Hope this help you to explain Hi-Res music to your CD friends
Last post for clarity. To fully define sunjam's posts in this thread and his blog, all you need is this: Read his posts again, almost all of them have one or more of those characteristics. Me putting a stop to his grand standing operation, is merely my belief that there should be some degree...- castleofargh

Don't worry about discussing something in the wrong thread, absolutely nobody stays on topic around here. I even tried to growl and show my teeth at some point, I even made a thread about off-topic, and not only did it achieve nothing, those gangsters went and posted off-topic conversations in...- castleofargh

1/ Admins(the real ones)almost never interfere with this section. 2/ there is no clear concept of preventive anything. I'm bound by the rules you have all agreed to when you joined Headfi. Not acting on them is half excused by me pretending I didn't see something so long as there is no report...- castleofargh
