Home Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Another area?


So the design of broadcast and mastering facilities as well as design of specific hardware for that industry does not qualify one to judge home audio equipment?

Absolutely CORRECT, - now you're getting it. The performance goals of home audio gear are entirely different....

"What do you play or watch on your great home system?"

I never said that I have a great system, - but others have. I have over 40,000 songs. I listen to a lot of different things. Digital Files vary in recording quality, - just like everything/everybody else. I also have about 1600 CDs and 60 or so high-rez discs in SACD/DVD-A. But I'm not sure why you're asking.

""You were the one who challenged me to disclose my home system obviously in the hopes of belittling it.""

Wrong!! I was curious as to what it was, as it could be a system where the products that you're making claims would, or would not be effective. Obviously, - if you do not have a computer (or digital file playback device), - it would be particularly damning if you were asserting that the USB device was ineffective, - when you don't even do computer file playback in your system.

""You think these large facilities don't have issues with electrical noise problems.""

??? what kind of crazy stuff are you saying with the above?


""I have provided a link to my home system.""

Was that a youtube video? Can't you just list it? It's not in your bio here....At one point, - this used to be an audiophile website....

""Show us some accomplishments in this hobby sector you have produced?""

As above, my system, my "accomplishments" are not what is at issue. I am not unreasonably judging any products that I've tested, heard, compared, etc. I claim to have knowledge of something that i don't know about, - unlike yourself.....

1. You are making a claim about something that you haven't heard, have no experience with: solely on the basis of a set of cult-of-personality based on training and experience in another, - unrelated field of study. And this is not only about listening experiences, - (the best test to take you out of ignorance), - but you're even refusing to investigate the internal components and parts that make up the devices, and even gather ANY evidence including measurements. After all you could get specific and cite the fact that LPS-1.2 now has LT3045 regulator chokes, and you can cite some experience that you've had with LT3045 chokes, - as to their contribution.
These products are NOT DESIGNED for the audio/video/industrial BROADCAST Industry. They are not designed for the recording mastering industry, they are not designed for recording studios.

2. Everyone here sees that as ignorance. But worse, - you're insulting the designers of these products, as though they were somehow charlatans, - on the basis of your ignorance and lack of research.

This isn't about me. I am just one of the hundreds of people who have found these products to be very effective. I am sure that my testing and research is better than some, but worse than others. But I have a ton more experience with THE ACTUAL devices than yours.

By the way, - I would say the exact same thing to Ed Meitner or Vladimer Lamm, or Albert Von Schweikert if they tried to assert some ridiculous, - and "trust me I'm a broadcast engineer" "authoritarian" statements about these COMPUTING + AUDIO devices.

yes, - these devices are designed for BOTH computer audio and home audio.

So, let me ask you, - do the very fine Tannoy studio monitors sound the same as Tannoy home audio monitors?

Where people had paid to see inside,
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says, 'I still exist.'"
