Number8 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 If anyone is dissuaded from viewing this because it's 58+ minutes long. Just watch the first 10 minutes...it's eye ear opening. The Stairway to Heaven played backwards part is undeniably cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpuma Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 yes, the first 10 minutes suffice. Then it gets super technical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockabilly69 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 like wines.... just don't drink the wine while blind testing the amps or you may just have too much fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I have an opinion on this. I think most people on this forum know what I think of 'tone-chasing'. I'll just add this: if only a few people can hear the difference between same value/different construction capacitors, etc, then isn't it a disappointment to extrapolate that tiny percentage to your listening audience's aural capability... Flame on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffB Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Watched every minute of it. This is the wormhole that is retirement.... I carried on and watched it all and then watched a few other vids from the same guy. This is the wormhole of thinking everything is interesting and matters.
