    Reality is Cruel : Cybershaft new Ultimate OCXO 10M Clocks Shootout OP20 vs OP17

    The Scarlatti - as well as its forebear the Verona - can take 10Mhz inputs. SC - have been remiss in not thanking you for your many years of diagnostics/exploration of clocks...your experimentation and resultant insights have helped my own system developments considerably! Much appreciated.

    ack's system - end of round 1

    Marc ....a White Snake fan!?...thought that was outside the purview of prog....but I did see White Snake in concert ...great show. Given the headliner was Quiet Riot....reminds that the night was memorable (i think ......hazy in parts)

    And whilst Emile enjoyed the arrival of a Caravaggio...I am now enjoying an Extreme version of his labour. Initial impressions...well frankly you've all said it before...;)

    Latest speaker offerings at Rhapsody.Audio

    Bob - quite the span of technologies....if you're ever permitted the time...a compare and contrast across them would be intriguing. In particular the Alysvox vs Magic M2.....is one I ponder.

    Reality is Cruel : Cybershaft new Ultimate OCXO 10M Clocks Shootout OP20 vs OP17

    Echoing much of what XCop said, Tony dropped off my SE-120 last Saturday....noting - at a suitable social distance - that he had another 6 or so deliveries to follow. Am still evaluating the impact...I am slow to reach definitive conclusions...preferring to mull/reflect and challenge the...

    Reality is Cruel Part II : CH Precision T1 10M Clock

    Sforzato's distribution is quite limited, also not the easiest to source into UK... One clock that I am somewhat surprised has yet to feature on WBF is Abendrot's Stute....which, courtesy of distribution in the UK, has made inroads with London Vivaldi stack owners....not a cheap solution at...

    Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

    Frankly am unconvinced that high or low power CPUs are the sine qua non of the desired state. Rather more likely is how the ingredients are blended, and that I suspect is the essential differentiator. Or put another way the Extreme - basis the eulogising in this thread - works because it is...

    Top Spectral system

    I wonder if that was 20 x 240/230 V versions for the 500AR. And i will respectfully dissent on the "much better speakers".... Am in rather focused contemplation/audition mode of this upgrade path - both amps and speaker.

    Black hole swallowing a neutron star?

    So since Kip Thorne and Stephen Hawking made a bet about the "binary" in Cygnus X-1 being a black hole nigh on 50 years ago...black holes have gone from a fringe mathematical oddity in the relativity solution set...to quite possibilty being one of the most significant physical drivers in...
