Great review and a thumbs up for you. Can’t believe I just saw this video. How do you think the H120 will pair with a pair of LS3/5a speakers? Thanks

Just get a Huawei 6G router for US40 . Connect streamer direct using lan and WiFi for everything else , TV, movies , etc.

I heard some of the Kaya speakers at the Danish Hifi show at a hotel last year. I Did NOT CAME to hear or see Vivid. But they impressed me the most. Biggest disappointment was the flagship PS Audio. Really impressive and pleasant from a modest size. (And I don't mind 15" speakers otherwise)

"We've always had the ambition of doing the finest headphones in the world" And I'm proud to say, that goal has been achieved.

Hi my friend , what do you thing yba heritage 200 and audia flight fl3s compare to atoll in200 signature ? Thanx for return

Strange comparison. In the world of high horology, Rolex is not considered truly high class but overpriced mid-class. In other words, Siltech actually says that you pay a lot of money for mid-class quality. (By the way, I do use Siltech loudspeaker cable and XLR interconnects, and I am very happy with it).

That big tube amp was the first ultra high end amp,it was 125.000 gulden back then ?,its now a collectors item,love it!

Are the measurements up yet on the SSN website?

What about using rhythm and pitch as a criteria to judge sound quality? We can trust that there's professional musicians playing on our recordings.

The thing is that people actually do hear differences ... that is not in doubt. The problem is that nobody can answer *WHY* they heard a difference. They need to take the extra step of tracking that difference down to something objective and repeatable. Otherwise we get the old problem that _"Declaration is not proof."_ Sit in your favourite listening chair... listen carefully to flutes and undistorted guitar ... now move your head an inch or two to each side of center... yep you will hear a difference. The "Why" question is answerable, because you changed the relationship between yourself and your speakers.

The problem with most tower speakers is the lack of "quality" bass and the 100H is no exception. Pay the extra and buy the 120H which gives you plenty of CONTROLED base thanks to the on board amplifier for the low-end and ARC room correction. The 120H is a totally different speaker. I heard them both.

What stands are these? I would be greatful for a response, because I can't seem to find anything suitable.

Large uncompressed files are more susceptible to bit rot.

Ok, good manufacturers with good reputations, would you say acuphase is one of them? I would, but when I check asr measurment of e 270 , and I am not familiar with hthos things, there is rms outpout measurment 4.5 W vs 5 W respectively between the channels. Now what we have to do ? ask dealer if I can take the amp from the store to measure it? They will not let me do this obviously. This is kind of...., Actually you spend 5K for speakers 5K for amp and you are still without balanced volume. But schiit, laddr and another chinese preamps come with resistor ladder attenuator and they are for 1K, but I would like to have something nicer than those boxes on my living room. So yeah there is a solution, when you check higher tier moon, norma, there you will not find alps, but will they measure good??, Which brands do you have good experience with. Alps at low volumes tend to be quite inacurate, and I do not understand how the manufacturers implement it to 5K products as the same pot you wil fiond in rega brio which is understandable.

🤔Ну сделали и сделали😏че тут болтать сидеть? Поставили и пусть играет. Нет сидят чета рассуждают😂👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

charging headphones is a step back in technology. just use a cable when designing a product. batteries made sense in the 80's when the products were low energy consumption the non rechargeable batteries last over a year, in example game and watch lcd videogames, walkie talkie, lantern and casio watches even the walkman last at least one week of use. now we have to charge the telephone everyday, it's a complete failure.

the problem with flac is that most likely it's a vinyl copy which obviously is even worst than a low bitrate mp3.

😳Ну и нахрена так заморачиваться ради каких то гробов? 😂👎👎👎

Too bad they’re warranties are not transferable like Bryston

Great explanation 👍

Very interesting conversation. Well done.

I have had sima and moon amps, all very good. 👍

Can’t hear what they are saying due to the very loud annoying music

An astounding accomplishment!

Incredible how some people spend on highend gear then limit the sound quality with compressed Spotify. Instead, it's much better to use a lossless streaming source like Apple Music.

Prices are just becoming absurd in the audio world. It has an embossed plaque and a machined power button...

Hate this interviewer

Wtf u should speak less n demo the sound of the speaker more ninabei....why don't u go to teach in the school wtf

As a proud owner of Criterion TCD 110 S', it was very interesting to learn the history and evolution of the product line. Thank you.

How do you prove you heard something different? That is about the silliest thing I have ever heard. Even if there is a difference and a person hears it, there is no way to prove or not prove that the person actually heard a difference besides giving their subjective opinion. Either they heard something or they didn't. Either they are telling the truth or lying. If they lied to you, how would you prove that they heard a difference, there is no way to do that.

I have done nulls test with a Neumann KU 100 and pro tools. Many different cables and cable types. If you test a properly setup system that is also reviling, the differences in cables (USB, power, speaker, interconnect) are very apparent. If the tested system isn't throwing a proper sound stage or resolving the micro details there are little to no differences.

Interesting point. I do agree with better listening test, but I want to add that people who claim that there are no differences will also bring this bias into their listening tests and probably won’t hear any difference. I am just curious why so many people hear differences. Bias may be a factor, but as many listeners hear the same characteristics (for example in a particular cable) I don’t believe people can have the same bias on the same piece of equipment.

There's a tipping point where the mastering on a song and the room you're in matter more than the equipment. I'd much rather spend $2k on a chair than upgrade any of my stuff. Heck, I think most people would eventually get more happiness out of hanging some art over upgrading a dac.

How can I use it as a DAC only? do I need to configure something on it?

blind protocols are very important to say the least. But what is even more important is quick switching. We can not compare an aural memory real time sound. We have to be able to switch back and forth very quickly and shift our focus to specific qualities in our back and forth comparisons to get the real differences. We have to compare apples to apples so to speak.

Sorry there is a difference. You dont have trained audiophile ears to know the difference. Ahahahahah.

Bragging rights. So much of so many hobbies is about bragging rights. And somehow, that has become almost entirely intertwined with how much you’ve spent on gear.

I 100% agree with this. I have long grown weary of the self appointed hi-fi guru with his unsubstantiated, inflated claims. Claims then handed down - Decalogue like - to the credulous and gullible. I am tired of the guru with his nebulous, meaningless prose. Where clarity, not obfuscation, should be the order of the day. Good audio gear has less to do with matters of opinion and art and silly prices, and more to do with science. Thanks for the piece.

Hmm… this seems promising. Alright I’ll subscribe and will keep an eye on how you follow up on this.

Thank you for shining a light on this important topic!

THE TRUTH IS!! YOU MUST BUY BETTER WINE!!!!!!✌️❤️👍🎼🎶🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵✨

How long does cork last? Im imagining not too long

when people talking about component A sounds better than component B, they usually talk about how they hear MORE DETAILS...in my book more details means more listening fatigue...or tight bass...for me tight bass is an oxymoron...live bass is always a little bit loose...

I love this!! I've been challenging these RUclips salesman that call themselves "reviewers" for years to prove that they can do what they claim they can do. It's so easy to make claims and never back them up with evidence and they all do it. I'm pretty sure a lot of them have shadow banned me for calling them out on their BS I asked them to instead of saying they can hear X SHOW US that you can If you can't SHOW it You don't KNOW it Talk is cheap

I did my own AB testing (though I knew what was plugged in on the day) Next time I forgot which was which and made a point to not pay attention to whether the switch was in or out. So I heard tiny differences between amps based on what I thought it was still, and found out it was the other amp and there really wasn't any difference to bother with. Albeit they were probably both still in class A mode (one pure class A, the other AB)

I completely agree with what is being said and I would like to add a little something From the perspective of an acoustician and someone who has been specializing in hrtf for more than 20 years...When we talk about building a speaker, for example, small changes by themselves are not significant and cannot be detected, but when we add a number of small significant changes, we get a result that is sometimes indeed significant...We as humans are very sensitive to certain changes and much less to other changes, a lot of times because our brain compensates for the shortcomings, For example, from an experiment we did, we built the exact same speaker except that we made sure to control the resonance of the box for one pair very significantly compered to the other, when we measured the response curve of the speaker there was no significant difference between them and also in the hearing quality in blind tasting there was almost no difference but... but that was not the purpose of the experiment...The test duration was half an hour at a relatively high! volume,... the purpose was to see the level of fatigue the people have after,and almost without exception the level of fatigue the people had was the opposite from one pair to the other, which you can probably guess which pair is which :) (I believe because the brain worked much less hard to compensate for the unnatural sound addition of the box itself) By the way, to clarify, the music consisted mainly of live instruments that people know how they sound in real life

I’ve heard a few A/B tests on RUclips from reviewers (recently Tharbamer & Thomas & Stereo) and can never hear much if any difference on my equipment. I have decent gear & can easily hear the difference between the dac in my AVR & and a separate dac (both played via the same hifi amp) - but I’m not aware of the difference between, say, the most basic speaker cable & Audioquest Rockets. Maybe whenever I hear sibilance or something I don’t like I should stop what I’m doing and dedicate the rest of that week to swapping out & A&Bing all my gear! Of course the biggest difference is always between what I hear now & what that thing I don’t have or can’t afford might sound like…

On other thing to think about ... How can we have a credible discussion on RUclips (and a few other forums) when we can't post links and references? Say whatever you want... nobody can refute it.
