thread title suggests emergency tracheotomy

[Ralf11]

just tune it

[Ralf11]

because HDDs have a limited lifespan

[Ralf11]

so Frank - what commercial aviation engineering forums do you post on?

[Ralf11]

You should write your own OS - just for music.

 

Call it Playah

They work like marijuana - your cables get "lifted"

 

... or maybe "boosted"

Someone recently told me that it is important to be able to understand where there is something not quite right, and then be smart about trying things, to resolve what troubles you.

 

sounds like a neurotransmitter issue

Could a good example of this be a person always being a smart arse, and never realising that it's somewhat offensive; and wondering why people react in a negative manner to their behaviour ... ?

 

only if they post the same thing 20 times a day

I thought I had gone quite mad

 

imagine what the rest of us think

[Ralf11]

ok....  microphones don't need to be perfect or have zero diaphragm inertia, but the inertia does need to be sufficiently small so as to follow the musical waveform (instruments have inertia too BTW)

 

... and to follow it so closely that human ears cannot detect any difference between it and a perfect mic

 

as an example of the latter, consider that many components of the ar have inertia...

While I agree with you mostly, Alex, science has nothing to do with impressions that audiophiles form about this or that tweak such as audiophile fuses, thousand dollar mains cords that weigh more than the component that they are connected to, or 2-meter or shorter interconnects which purport to change the sound of one’s system, when science not only says that these things cannot be, but actually has no explanation as to why these things even “might” be real. It seems to me that this is more a case where mythology moves on rather than science...

 

There really isn't any new science relevant to sound reproduction.

 

Alex is trying to create a mythology that can move on

[Ralf11]

more anecdotal BS

[Ralf11]

the US Govt. is heavily involved in Medical Research

[Ralf11]

maybe not heavily enough...

[Ralf11]

human genome project is just one

 

get a grip, George

[Ralf11]

be serious - go look up the budget at NIH, NIMH

 

do you know the cost of the human genome project??

 let's say that the drivers themselves have reached a level of quality where distortion is low enough and generally the frequency reproduction and dispersion patterns are good enough that ...

 

 

 

I had no idea Frank was using these
