Bits is bits?

[Ralf11]

Agreed - it is a melange of Qualitative & Quantitative Errors, with some real info misted on top.

 

And, the word "Darko" in an article is like a warning sign on a highway...

 

But if you have any specific questions, fire away

[Ralf11]

You are wasting your time asking this question here, as engineers and scientists will point out the errors in the ravings of parasites and Luddites.

 

You can get different answers if you ask people who don't understand anything.

[Ralf11]

Luddite is a bit of a compliment

 

 

sorry if it bytes

[Ralf11]

I take your point Tom, but motivation is important.

Is there any doubt that the motivation is to sell stuff, facts be damned?

 

No Doubt.

 

Tragic Kingdom...

[Ralf11]

I did not attack the OP.

 

Why don't you pick out one specific paragraph in the article cited and show us why it is true and not deceptive.  I cannot find anything that is not deceptive, but I am certain that you, with your superior understanding, can enlighten us all.

 

Or are you going to Censor yourself?

now, now - for all the Dravings, he understands analog quite well

The above is the misinformation that just showed up in my inbox...

 

I also got spammed with this.  The worst thing about it, is that it reads like Soviet propaganda - it is well written and uses semi-accurate stmts. to make specious arguments.

 

All in service of selling stuff to people who likely do not need it.

 

Kevin should be ashamed.  I am unlikely to buy equipment from them again.

I am talking about your knowledge base

[Ralf11]

Quite a few "respected members of this forum" have seen your purported proof.  AFAIK, not one has been convinced, or persuaded.

 

Here is a tip: when reading journal articles (which of course have undergone peer review) you first read the Methods section (not the Intro or even the Abstract).  If it is deficient, there is no need to read anything else.

[Ralf11]

I  know what your knowledge base isn't.

[Ralf11]

I do want to apologize for trying to treat him like a rational person.

 You are the one being presumptuous.

 You are making an unverifiable claim that your system is totally immune to these effects, and can correct all deficiencies resulting from the front end, even the visual side from an attached monitor/TV  which does NOT go through your optical network along with the Audio.

 It's simply a waste of time discussing this further with you.

Canisters of audio grade phlogiston to be released in the general vicinity of the wifi. I can supply those now. Packaging may vary (depending on whatever tin is cheapest at the moment).

with all this stuff triggering my reward system, it is a good thing I bought an Imperial Stout at the grocery store today

This is known as binaural hearing. That’s how human and animals hearing works. 

 

Will a lateral line give you binaural hearing?

 

It could, I suppose...

Fun Fact - dolphins use a blast of HF sound waves to stun fish, so they can easily scoop them up

[Ralf11]

Yes ... and congrats on being the first to figure it out!

 

But I don't think he is as smart as a dolphin.

[Ralf11]
