But one's subjective preference does not. Nor does one saying vinyl sounds better to them. In those respects, science is ambivalent and should not be used as a cudgel to beat up on such people. se

Last year's news. Susceptance is where it's at, baby! se

Oh, whew! Had me worried there for a moment. After the moon landing hoax was exposed, you have to be a real idiot to fall for this stuff anymore. se

You don't actually believe that do you? se

Was wondering when you'd chime in. :p se

No, it's decidedly irrational. Just that it doesn't matter when it comes to subjective enjoyment. Digital beats vinyl by a wide margin on virtually every technical metric. You just need to come to grips with the fact that you prefer vinyl because of its flaws, not in spite of them. Something...

Bingo. se

Yes. You're missing the bigger picture that we're talking about a circuit. Go to the link and look at series resistance. Eliminate R3. Then move R1 to the return line down below R2. R1 represents the resistance of one wire and R2 represents the resistance of the other wire. Although now the...

When used as a cable, the conductors are not in parallel. They are in series. So the resistance of each conductor adds. So the total resistance of a 1 meter cable is indeed 0.154 ohms. se

You just pulled down your pants and have demonstrated to everyone reading this that obviously you are not. http://youtu.be/zKhEw7nD9C4 se

And sadly, I think I'm going to have to add Arny to the list of those who just aren't wired for terribly rational thought. The irony is downright painful. se

Do you realize what you're saying here? Think about it for a moment. se

Some people's brains just aren't wired for terribly rational thought. In that respect you can't really blame them. It's just how their DNA wired them up. Doesn't make it any less frustrating dealing with them though. se

And the more garbage you can feed them that they'll swallow without question. se

Thanks, Nick! se

What seems to be overlooked in all of this is that the only place that jitter counts is at the output of the DAC chip when it makes the conversion. Has anyone shown that different USB cables cause any meaningful change in jitter at the output of the DAC chip? se

http://youtu.be/MnXZB9SkS44 This thread is getting silly. Should just ignore it until something is actually produced. Whatever company is behind it isn't doing themselves any favors with this nonsense. They're already coming off as amateurish letting Nomax start this thread in the first place...

The subject is rather oxymoronic, but your post was certainly within the spirit of the thread. Thanks! se

Yes. An amp with a -3 dB of 300 kHz will not "more accurately" reproduce 20 kHz than an amp with a -3 dB of 200 kHz. There is a huge and fundamental misunderstanding going on here. se

Just a word of caution. Be very careful with the cables. They're using four 31 gauge solid core wires per channel. Keep flexing to a minimum to prevent breaking the solid core wires. se

You're not going to hear any difference between and amp with a -3 dB of 200 kHz and an amp with a -3 dB of 300 kHz. Your claim is bullSchiit. Please go away. se

Ditto. se

The all tube Schiit Valhalla 2 has a -3 dB of 200 kHz. se
