Listening to live music with ear plugs, it feels so sweet. Why do drummers always seem the happiest? Sep 13, 2023

        I don't mind The Eagles, But I've done enough hifi meets to come to loathe Hotel California!

        I mean... WHY? I don't recall it being particularly challenging to a hifi system?

        Ban it! Not allowed. Not even for science!

        LOL.

        I always ask about Moth Audio, modern internet archives it is a lost name. last I tried with chatgpt it knew nothing or it led me to believe. This time (claud) is telling me about the phonos. Who really helped design those?

        I have not explored AI chat at all. I'm not that interested in the phenomenon, other than a, "yeah... that's clever" basis, and I don't want my search results turned into an essay, because I don't want to be separated from the source of the information, nor do I want to rely on the machine to judge its quality.

        I've seen enough demo questions and answers on slightly specialist subjects to know that it can't.

        I have a classic brown fedora from Locke & Co. that I bought in October 2001; I've seldom worn it. But I have an officially-licensed Indiana Jones cotton safari fedora, which is a great sunhat. It just happened to look good on me, and the only hat in the shop that looked better was a straw Borsalino that costed three times the price and is less practical. And, yes, "Last Crusade" is one of my 30 favorite movies.

        Did the M1 Air get the same HP amp that they've been putting in the M2 laptops and 14"/16" M1 MacBook Pros? They did a great job on my 2021 16" M1 MacBook. It's the best built-in jack I've ever heard. You can actually get a really good sound with an HD6xx straight out of the laptop jack with no additional HW, FWIW.

        No, I believe they use different opamps, or maybe the macbook air is right off the Cirrus Logic chip. But the usb is far better than my windows pc with a gaming GPU.

        Tbh I don't understand it much either. Those things you mentioned though make things sound more macrodetailed; kind of like how bright headphones "cheat" at resolution. Utopia kind of does this, except further listening reveals that Utopia is very resolving

        Much bullshit and idiocy has happened because of theunthinking transference of "resolution" as digital-image terminology to difgital audio.

        But this, I think remains true: in a digital image, showing increasingly close lines, how far down the scale can one still see separate lines? In digital audio, when there is a noise, of combined instruments for instance, can the component parts be detected?

        I always thought "scaling" was simply a hardware thing: Does it bring out the benefit of better components elsewhere in the kit?

        @Qildail Yeah, that’s why I thought they’d need some form of a TURN server, but they simply skipped that. Right now it works for me, but we’re getting FTTH probably next year, and as far as I saw I won’t have a public IP address then, at least not a IPv4 one. Personally, I know how to do such stuff and have servers I can use for a tunnel, but many don’t.
