If add another points of view, certain with some experiences and real info ... It's an intention of "change mind" of the others ... this forum it's only to ask and response the obvious and without any grow on knowledge or at least try to learn something new from the others. Ok, this forum it's...

If you use good power cables and good rca interconnects the difference with the balanced option can be 0. Obviously, you need to test. Many people think that balanced sounds better because usually the balanced connection adds 3dB (usually, because some implementations add attenuators)...

Music reproduction it's not theory ... it's listening. I think that Jim Austin can say it much better than me, so i will extract her words from a recent review: J. Holt (first editor of Stereophile) says: "accuracy in audio reproduction is the ultimate objective of an ideal sound system, which...

I don't agree in some aspects ... some things are pushed to their side. "In all cases, the balanced interfaces will provide better performance" I think that's wrong, like with "bits are bits" and all the easy generalizations. One thing is theory and other the implementation. Balanced have...

That's ok, but you will listen to both amplifiers with the same speakers in the same room. It's very, very difficult to have better conditions on real Life for real consumers.

That's all right .... and that's what i promote ... but some people think that i "promote" or "insist" on vinyl as to rule the world. I try to add some information or data about vinyl for those who doesn't know about it, because i see that on some opinions. Simply to add information. So, i...

why if we talk about analog reproduction we're "trolling"? every time i talk about analog some people try to "defend" digital music or in some way try to dismiss the topic ... and i see every imaginable off-topic (animals, food, whatever) rolling well. i don't talk against digital, i use...

I think you're wrong (with all my respect). Maybe you and your friends don't appreciate the physical media, and it's nothing wrong with that, but we sometimes do generalizations based on what we like / dislike without real facts. You can think I'm doing that right now, but the data of Vinyl...

Well, i already know that the profile of users here it's in major part "digital boys" ... so, let me say something clear: a vinyl will last an entire life without any change in sound under certain conditions. What conditions? a clean record used with clean and not damaged stylus. These are...

Are you saying that Vinyl Is a dead format? ...

Well ... you really add information :thumbsup:

I posted something about it on the thread ... impedance and phase curves are more important in general. But ... people here Is something special. Cats and "funny" posts are quoted hundred times, but technical info is passed by. Nothing wrong or right ... It's like it's. Then you see talking...

Some people says the opposite with the loudness war. Older mastering have all the dynamic range and the new másters are Made to sound good on crappy portable devices and sound horrible on real HiFi systems.

Well, VHS was really better than Betamax? I remember DAT and mini disc. They doesn't sound better than Vinyl but also doesn't have the classic "hisssss" of the cassettes in the tweeters. I'm expecting the new HD Vinyl cutted with láser. Can be a revolution on analog sound.

Cylinders sound quality it's worst, Vinyl sound quality was not improved by digital. Simple. Well, as i post originally, Vinyl can have "drawbacks" for someone that don't see / don't like the other benefits. The same happens to me with digital downloads ... ripping / labelling / organizing /...
