They all have that 'stink eye' thing going on in the AI image. Either one of them farted during that 'photo', or yeah, it's an instantly-recogniseable AI glitch.

I asked for proof that they make any difference to a signal and I got the stock answer 'If you don't like them you can always send them back' Well, I offer a similar service for my cables, but at least I actually publish manufacturer specs and my own measurements for my cables such as...

Personally, I think these are one of the most ludicrous snake-oil opportunities that exist in hifi and there are plenty of peddlers. How can a relatively simple, single-component device that's designed to protect from over-voltage make such a claimed significant audible/sonic difference within a...

...including some thoroughly gratuitous bedside cabinet R2R action :O

Do you have the means to do a full calibration jim? I noticed the manual has decent instruction for adjusting all levels including for the DYNEQ feature. W&F (JIS) a bit optimistic at 0.025% maybe (?) Many are using NAKT100 software but fkd if I'm paying MS/Apple anything these days. I'm using...

If this deck was on my to-do list Jim, well tbh it wouldn't be- it's too far-gone and corroded for my liking, but if I was going to tackle something with this level of internal corrosion I'd be considering stripping it down completely as the idea of any particles or bits of...

This may have been easier than I had anticipated... Let me know if the link works: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8xj66oq904ahpqx/nad_6300_service.pdf?st=k482e1jy&dl=0

I would if I could, but sadly I can't as i'm still languishing in hosi unfortunately :/ If I can get dropbox working on my phone and I can downlaod and upload it from there...or maybe share a link or something then maybe that's helpful? I have a bunch of NAD manuals I downloaded from hifiengine...

Reminds me of the 6340 I gave up refurbing. I decided my time was worth more than fretting how to get the damn thing apart and the blood pressure increases when I got flummoxed by it. You may find areas that have been bonded/glued together as in the 6340. A heat gun comes in handy if so... Good...

So Gene had a cardiac arrest, revealed by his pacemaker data. Discovered by a maintenance worker after 9 days deceased. Dog died of dehydration. Her death is still being investigated and may have occurred some time after his after some 'time-disparities' have now been established. Either way...

Yeah. stands to reason though- when you're as reclusive as they obviously were then it's going to be most likely down to whoever you're in frequent contact with that eventually discovers you. In this case it looks like the maintenence workers who rocked up every couple of weeks or so. I give...

French Connection I and II The Conversation

Well, whether you believe in conspiracies or not, prices are nefariously planned and manipulated to suit federal/global plans. I don't really like Eric Berg but some of his videos/content seem credible sometimes...

My neighbours had chickens. There's a mutual disdain between us so I never got any eggs. That's ok. Their kitchen doesn't get any sunlight in the morning because of my conifers. Win, win. Or is it lose, lose?

Was shocked and saddened in equal measures at the news. Looks like double suicide from statements made. Pills scattered around floor where she was found. French Connection 1 and 2 are my alltime favourite films and this is where I know him from principally. Like some of his other work too...

What a thoughtful, considerate thing to do to your spouse. I always thought his writings were full of shit and never really got why he was considered as either influential, talented, skilled or even remotely interesting. Sorry for the counter-narrative. Maybe it's incentivised by being stuck...

That's a decent DAC Bob, with a good spec and low distortion figures but the lack of analogue inputs and balanced headphone output/s would be a deal-breaker for me. Can you live without those features (esp if your pre-amp I/O's are fully populated?)

Cable-related videos are always popping up in my youtube feed, for obvious reasons I suppose. All those emails and cable manufacturers website cookies reporting back to google on me etc. But this particular video had me enthralled - a 'speedy cutover' service from an old analogue telephone...

Swings and roundabouts Bob. I'd do a bit of experimenting before investing time/expense in a potentially expensive cable solution. A cheap (shielded) power+data spec USB cable. Somebody must be selling those somewhere! Long runs of cables are susceptible from internal and external EMI/RFI...

Just a thought Bob, but once you start using powered USB hubs to pass any audio/data intended for a DAC/amp etc. you introduce more risks of noise infiltration. It's one of the reasons why I stay the hell away from making USB cables for audiophiles as you just don't know how bad or good their...
