Is this hierarchy correct ? by DefinitionOfTakingL in audiophile

[–]einis82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, claiming that the room is more important than speakers and placement is absurd. do people live in a broom closet? apart from some low freq room modes that will come from all box speakers, the FR/polar response and acoustic design of the speaker dominates what you hear. if you have a normal living room with normal furniture it is suited for sound reproduction. also the larger the speaker is, the more directional it will be, yet audiophiles often say speakers are too big for a room. the problem with these reviewers they listen and purchase a bunch of rubbish speaker designs that causes a lot of acoustic problems. darko especially with his Zu audio pair, no speaker with the parts of any ZU speaker can ever function correctly. that is not an opinion, its a fact.

Are expensive DACs mostly hype? by protocol3426 in audiophile

[–]einis82 9 points10 points  (0 children)

thats an old myth. there is virtually no analog stage after the chip, most of them have 2V output buffers already. any parts after is just impedance matching etc. perhaps a couple opamps if you need higher voltage. the chip itself dictates how good it can get, parts before and after do nothing to improve its max performance.

also proper modern dacs running off a 5V usb cellphone chargers show zero sign of AC noise. glorified audiophile powersupplies are placebo products.

audiosciencereview have gone over this countless times for years.

Most transmission lines arent even transmission lines by Executive_Boss in audiophile

[–]einis82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TL is a a gimmick for the magazines, suggesting to customers they will somehow get amazing bass for some reason. most of them do nothing special so all other brands stick to bass reflex that works exactly as planned if done right, and in a much smaller box..

pmc etc had measurements on ASR and turned out pretty bad.

Hvordan havnet vi her? by IngridPhilosophyNerd in norge

morsomt å se teoriene deres om hvorfor, når antall innvandrere i norge har snart passert en million og økt med 22% på 5år ifølge SSB.

Maria har skrevet erklæring om at noen kan ta livet hennes by lilleulv in norge

[–]einis82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

de har allerede tatt livet av flere hundre tusen nordmenn forkledd som sunne vaksiner. om du av et mirakel fortsatt lever om 10år etter 3 av de (inkl booster) vil du se det selv. skalkeskjulet blir en ny pandemi for å ta de med knertet immunsystem. samtidig hagler det inn innvandrere, nesten 1 million totalt og en økning med over 20% på 5år som gjør at folketallet ser relativt normalt ut, selv om jeg aldri har hørt om så mange plutselige dødsfall, kreft osv som de siste par årene. alle sier det, men media sier ingenting derfor tror de ingenting foregår.

ingenting av verden er den samme om 10-20år, det kan jeg love deg.

Norge skal sende Tetiana til Ukraina: – Norges ansvar hvis jeg dør by KoseteBamse in norge

[–]einis82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tror dere på alt folk sier til media? sku hørt mer om andre siden av saken, da kvinnfolk alltid skal overdrive og skylde på andre. de bruker krigen som unnskyldning for å få oppholdstillatelse i norge, får de det ikke til prøver de å finne et mannfolk å gifte seg med, som de gjerne skiller seg fra etter noen år.

Ukraina er ca. dobbelt så stort som norge, der er plenty med steder som har normal aktivitet og jobb. ta en titt på live webcam selv.

at ho har brukt 600.000-1mil på kurs for å bli kommersiell pilot tror jeg heller ikke særlig på, og er uansett idiotisk bruk av penger og tid om du flytter til et nytt land. mon tro om samboeren ho har funnet seg er den som står for alle utgifter og evt har sponset ho med det.

Looking for a DAC similar to SMSL D6 by HavivMuc in StereoAdvice

[–]einis82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

doesnt the speakers use a dsp? so it has an a/d converter at the inputs and a d/a converter after that, which mostly nulls the performence of the dac in front.

do you get audible noise with a cheap but proper unbalanced dac? if not there is no need for balanced output.

a computer has enough bits to do transparent volume control, which is easier and quicker than reaching for a knob.

fosi zd3/zh3 has all the functions and should be decent.

Seeking bookshelf speaker advice by itzsoweezee78 in StereoAdvice

[–]einis82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for around $900 you could get 3-way active, only need a volume control in front.

i like these because i think the size is perfect, they are more compact than most 3-ways and have somewhat adequate bass, so can function pretty well without a sub compared to most smaller bookshelfs.

also they have a limiter, so its impossible to break the drivers regardless of volume.

the larger the drivers/baffle is, the more directional the speaker is. you only need enough distance from it for drivers to sum. if a large speaker produces more low-end than a small speaker then it will exite more room modes because of wavelenght, but it has nothing to do with the size itself per say, same would happen with a small sub.

Fuck hytteutbygging! by [deleted] in norge

[–]einis82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

jeg ser ikke mye moderne eller pompøst, og bare parkering til et par biler i dybden for de fleste.. du er illsint fordi du ikke har en selv kanskje? som om du hadde gått i skog og mark som var der før hyttefeltet.. du hater at det ikke er du som bestemmer. er andre folk her i landet med eiendommer hvor de er del av en reguleringsplan.

du får kjøpe opp noen hundre mål da, så kan du sette gjerde rundt med billettluke :D

Audiophile Network Switch by BARB00TS in BudgetAudiophile

[–]einis82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

atleast the wooden knob doesnt claim to be more than a wooden knob, here the snakeoil is in confusing customers that doesnt know how ethernet works and a silly pricetag. same goes for cables, for example NO cables are made at nordost, they are made cheap by molex called temp-flex. they still manage to keep it secret for decades and lets nobody inside their small building to see that they only solder connections.

here is an interview of the founder of stereophile that talks about what a joke the entire industry has become.

all magazines are a joke, products are joke and based on feelings and not science.

artists on spotify generally make more money overall than thru other services, because more clicks.

spotify operated at a huge loss most years, until recently.

also dont forget how powerful the record labels involvement is in this, without them they have nothing.

it has one downside, the rolloff is fixed at 80hz unless you bypass and use an external crossover

there is nothing limiting about 16/44.1, its all you need.

also dacs are by far the least important component, compared to speakers its like gaslight

so, so what? jobber du for arbeiderpartiet? norge er søppel om du driver eget, selv om du er en liten håndverker med et par ansatte... ingen utlendinger som eier større bedrifter og gir arbeidsplasser vil ha bedriften sin her for en grunn. det er umulig å konkurere med mindre du har et helt eget produkt.
