Hello and good evening to you, gentlemen. The discourse that was presented was beneath this forum. Some posts were removed. Please try again to maintain the cordial atmosphere and friendly conversation. This is, after all, just a hobby...

I dunno, man. I have a friend who, whenever we listen to our respective systems? We rip each other's system apart. Down to the "inth" degree.
It's not because we enjoy justifying our own systems, it's just honest feedback from another set of ears. Many times, I will point out something that I...
Hello sir and good morning to you. In a recent discussion with Alex (@Superdad) and John Swenson elsewhere, it appears as if the optical can impart a certain sound signature. Here is a snippet that may confirm in a technical manner what you are actually hearing....

I was planning on going (was looking very forward to it) but my workload states otherwise. I wanted to meet Gary and Jonny, along with seeing some of the other great members of this forum who I know will be attending. @Believe High Fidelity - Joshua is a good friend of mine. I'm glad to see you...
Hello and please allow me to offer you a very warm welcome to the WBF. There are two advantages to using the ER.
The first is the ADIM (which is essentially a moat) that eliminates much of the signal born phase noise. The second is that you can use this device to hook up to a 10MHz clock to...
Please keep in mind the affiliation within the industry...
One other thing to note - We do hold Industry Insiders to a higher standard. Please say "IMO" or "IME" and not state something as fact, as this is actually against the TOS of this forum.
9. Where possible, please avoid generalizations...
Sounds like it on the video(s). The lower registers are THE hardest thing to get right IMO/IME.....and then to get them to blend to the rest of the system seamlessly.
Well done, Mike....well done.
Tom
That was my old favorite version. I think this one blows that one out of the water. Sorry to hear about the repairs. Downtime bites.
Mark this one as a "must listen" when the rig is back up. It is truly a gem.
Tom
@MacF, I would love to offer you my insights but optical is not my thing. The Muon Pro does work (similarly...in other words, it does the same thing) the same way and offers the same observations on a friend of mine's system who runs with a pair of Focal Utopia's/Mark Levinson type gear. FWIW...
Gentlemen, seeing as how this post is/or "can be" political? We will leave it "as is" and let you decide whether or not you would like to pursue it from this point.
Thanks for looking ad happy pursuing...
That said, this thread is closed.
Tom
Let's please keep the thread topic on course and not sway into thoughts on a particular musician's beliefs. It has not one thing to do with the Muon Pro at all.
Thanks, gentlemen.
Tom
Well, you have. One only has to go back to where you first started your diatribe. Placebo.
In many people's eyes? This does not differ from "imagining things".
Immediately cease and desist on bringing up your religion (or thoughts/beliefs thereof). That is against the TOS of this forum. Your...
Or it could bring to the table another world of music one would never listen too...
While I am not as "blessed" as many members on this forum monetory wise, I do enjoy vastly what my ANK 5.1 Pro DAC does for me. I will not compare it to vinyl.
Each format has its different deficiencies, and...
Okay, let's not get religion into the conversation.
@Analog Scott. You are about 2 decades behind this forum on many things. TBT, your banter is old and outdated. Your knowledge is vast but the talking points make many members want to....
Please stop.
We do rule with a gentle hand but...
I cannot speak for others, but I personally readjust every time something is slightly "off". Whenever this happens, when I go to check? Yup. The speakers have moved ever so slightly. I will recalibrate them and after that, everything snaps back to where it was.
Tom
I will not be playing this game. It is apparent to me that you have not heard any difference and while that is all fine and dandy, there are many here that have moved on from this type of argument. It's rather silly because we know better. You will not convince anyone to change their mind, so I...
