I thought he wanted the ping pong effect. 😉 Interestingly, the presence of the ball was a surprise. Owner probably would be having a hard talk with his children. Wondering whether the speaker isolation cones and the high end speaker’s stands helped to minimize the ping pong ball effect. lucretius 1 ST My Ambiophonics System with Virtual Concert Hall Ambience Link to comment

Hugo9000 Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I had no personal experience with them, I just remember them being praised in certain quarters back in the day. And of course we now have a lot of people talking about ladder DACs as if they are the ultimate. 请教别人一次是5分钟的傻子,从不请教别人是一辈子的傻子 Link to comment
STC Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 PS Audio bought over Ultra analogue. Not sure what if the make the same module anymore.

bambadoo Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 7 hours ago, The Computer Audiophile said: Ah, the HDCD chip! HDCD: Quote High Definition Compatible Digital (HDCD) is a proprietary audio encode-decode process that claims to provide increased dynamic range over that of standard Red Book audio CDs, while retaining backward compatibility with existing compact disc players. Quote HDCD encodes the equivalent of 20 bits worth of data in a 16-bit digital audio signal by using custom dithering, audio filters, and some reversible amplitude and gain encoding: Peak Extend, which is a reversible soft limiter; and Low Level Range Extend, which is a reversible gain on low-level signals. There is thus a benefit at the expense of a very minor increase in noise.[3] The claim that the encoding process is compatible with ordinary CD players (without audible distortion) is disputed: not being able to decode the peak soft limiting, a normal CD player will output distorted peaks.[4 ] Hmm - Havent we heard about similar the last couple of years?
