    Your Audio AC Filter box on video duties, have you tried it?

    If you already have an Audio AC conditioner or filter strip, do the following test: remove the audio equipment temporarily, plug your video equipment into the filter lines (your computer server also goes in a line if your computer goes into the TV like mine). My video setup plugged into is...

    What have you watched [4K]?

    On 4K Ultra-HD Blu-Ray or streaming like Netflix because HD is passé and not the best anymore. The thing with Netflix is that it's good they produce 4K content for streaming, but some of their productions have a type of grain on it, which sometimes defeat the purpose of having 4K, Daredevil...

    What have you listened to [DSD]?

    From SACD or DSD64 and above. The Marvin Gaye Collection in DSD64. Contains some of the older tracks like the duets with Tammi Terrell. There seems to be a little gap in the quality of the recording of these tracks and later ones, which is expected. Other than that, this is a great...

    Making a Murderer and a True Crime Hyper-cycle.

    Watching 'Making a Murderer' is a must, and really grabs attention a couple of episodes in. Now, if you haven't watched it, here is a good list for a True Crime Hyper-cycle which goes over similar themes, namely potential miscarriages of justice, bumbling law enforcement, laywers , judges...

    Engrossing and hilarious show on Netflix - Terrace House

    Because I like Japanese and Asian culture, we started to watch this show, Terrace House, which initially looks like it's a Japanese Big Brother. Couldn't stop except for nightly sleep until we finished the season (or what Netflix has yet made available for Canada) the next day. After all...

    New show to watch or binge: Stranger Things

    Plays a lot on 80's nostalgia and if you were a kid then, on that too :D The musical score and cinematography go with it 80's style as well. Episode 3 so far, and it has an X-Files like intrigue to it. I can't say yet if it's very good or not, but it's entertaining although some things are...

    Centennial - James A. Michener.

    One Epic TV show that I saw when I was a teen or a kid was the adaptation of James A. Michener's 'Centennial'. I probably watched it in French because to me it's known as 'Colorado'. Little did I know at the time that these types of surroundings would one day become my own. The show comes...

    Daredevil Season 2

    The beginning of Season 2 has a brilliant fight scene just as the first season had its own defining moment. Other than that, initially, for a few episodes the legal company aspects and the relationship aspects aren't very interesting and threatened to drag down the season. Fortunately, the...

    UltraCap LPS-1 by Uptone Audio

    Alex at Uptone Audio just announced their forthcoming Linear Power Supply which powers the load by alternate banks of supercapacitors thus disconnecting the load from any mains noise or intermediate PS noise (like one from a normal wall-wart). If you know Vinnie Rossi's LIO, then you are...

    Sonore's microrendu is out - the first audiophile microcomputer?

    Jesus at Sonore just released the microrendu, a computer whose internals, including motherboard, power supply network and software stack were purpose-built for audiophile applications. He worked with John Swenson and Andrew from Small Green Computers. Now, since I was thinking of the best...

    Listening impressions of DSD and Tube amplifiers.

    A natural pairing. A few years back, while I was researching the DSD format I decided that since it is really analogue in nature and happens to be stored in digital format, I would like to pair it with a native DSD DAC or chip-less DSD DAC as well as a Tube amplifier. It is a natural...

    Sacha Baron Cohen and Nobby

    I just saw "Touche Pas A Mon Poste", a French show. Sacha Baron Cohen was on for promoting his forthcoming Nobby (or Grimbsy?). Now, the presenter is a genius/clown (in the good sense). But Cohen pulls the most insane prank ever onto the presenter who is a star in his country. Insane! :p :p...
