Are those plasma arch speakers?

Looking for a turntable on Craigslist but it takes patience to find anything decent... I've been needing a new table for a while now and I'm slowly thinking of caving and buying new. The project debut carbon seems to have good reviews in my budget. But I know I could get way better bang for buck with a used table. What do?
Also, any vintage turntables that you guys prefer? I've been keeping my eye out for technics, pioneer, and thorens, then looking up details on the model.
Logan Rodriguez
I can only imagine how pure the sound is on that setup.
Matthew Scott
I'm sure it makes up for being 52, having no hearing, having no wife, no kids and being a fucking virgin.

Question is, whats in the snek?
Daniel Bennett
depleted uranium
John Watson
foam with high static property's and lies.
Benjamin Miller
Apparently it ships at 7lbs.
That is the most disgusting man-made object not designed by HR Geiger.

What does an RS-232 cable have with audiophilery to do?

>The biggest problem is that no-one really knows what an amplifier will do when a reactive load reflects some of the power back into the amp's output. We can hope (without success) that the effects will be negligible, or we can try to make speakers appear as pure resistance (again, without success).
>Because these figures are so rarely quoted (and I must admit, I have not really measured all the characteristics of the 60W amp in Project 03 - open loop measurements are difficult to make accurately), we have no idea if amplifiers with poor open loop responses are responsible for so many of the failings we hear about. It is logical to assume that there must be some correlation, but we don't really know for sure.
>If THD is quoted without reference to its harmonic content, then it is quite possible that two amplifiers may indicate identical distortion figures, but one will sound much worse than the other.

>We could, though, repeatedly pick out which cable sounded better and have that pick consistently be the same cable. This was the only result so far that we were confident in.

How do i get the output from my pc to go to headphones and speakers, and choose what output goes to each device?
Xavier Gray
plug them into the proper ports? if you have realtek, install the driver and use the control panel's multistream features
Isaiah Russell
They are funny, I trust leddit more than Sup Forums thought.
Ian Jackson
it is being used to connect the two units of the Resolution Audio Opus 21 CD Player
one unit has the power supply
the cable is high purity silver strands and the D sub plugs are Amphenol gold plated copper

Fuck that, I'm done with hipster bullshit. Luckily I learned my lesson for $20.

looks okay senpai but a cheap 2 channel receiver is far from audiophile.
Eli Baker

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse.
Cameron Morris
I have a Little Dot Mk1+ amp.
Bought an audiophile Burson V5i opamp for it.
It is absolutely terrible. Inferior in every way to the cheap Chinese one it came with. It is noisy as fuck and has a constant buzzing noise.

Dude buy at least a semi auto turn table, yes the project ones are nice but full manual.
One of the best back for buck turntables around is the Denon DP300, it is full auto.
I'm using a 40+ year old Dual 1226, which is luckily in really good condition. Took me some time to get it working again, all the grease inside the mechanic hardened and the rubber parts fell apart. Thats the thing with old turntables, you have to out work in them.
Nathan Morales
Not a cheap receiver. Sony ES is high end stuff, its just mine's not a home theater unit so its not as boss.
It was cheap for me though, got it as a gift. And all in all that entire setup cost me a total of $20 so I'll take it.
Anthony Long
They really screwed me on it. It was like $50 and then they had the balls to charge me $15 for shipping. It was a fucking envelope.
When I complained about quality they said to spend $20 on shielding.
Joshua Long
>20$
put it on ebay and sell them individually.
I once found a kenwood hifi amp the dumpster, i cleaned the pots to sell it as refurbished. It sold for 170$
Working, big hi-fi amps are 100$ easily on ebay.
Easton Cruz
Yeah, I've thought of that. When I get a better receiver I will be selling it.
I just brought home a simple mini Sony CD/aux/ipod shelf stereo for 10 bucks at goodwill, cleaned it up and attached some spare speaks I had around. Sounds good. Not """"Audiophile"""" but good.
Found a Technics receiver/cassette in a dumpster and after some cleaning used that thing for a few years too.
Goodwill stores are great for this kinda thing.
Nathan Wright
This is intended as humour right?
It's not actually someone stating that the distance the cable has from the ground affects the sound the speakers output?
Benjamin Wright
I'm not from where you're from apparently, so what are goodwill stores?
Brayden Ramirez
The power plug gets me. Inside the wall it's standard romex cable.
Mason Rodriguez
don't you want your sound signal completely freed of those pesky dieletrics on your floor?
Charles Gray
>tfw I am an audiophile with a golden years.
Carter Watson
I love my Little Dot Mk1+.
Though I can't say tubes are really all that worth it. The only ones that sound any different are the stock ones and they sound like shit.
Connor Foster
Forgot my pic.
Jayden Murphy
Kinda looks like a PSB Stratus Gold..
I have them too, only in dark cherry.

Is there a guide in English how to transform your PlayStation 1 into an audiophile station? I've seen so many variations of them on YouTube but any search brings me to ruskie websites or French
Joshua Turner
It's a prank. See
Xavier Howard
>using windows integrated file copy system reduce the quality of the sound, use ultracopier when moving flac files on your hard disk
my sides went singularity, i cant believer that the rotational velocidensity went outside the meme realm
Jack Hughes
It's not a prank if they're actually using them on youtube
Julian Hall
many teardowns of the so called "audiophile" ps1 has shown that it use a really cheap DAC
Julian Morales
as stated here, the """audiophile""" Playstation (SCPH-1001) actually just use a DAC that worth 5 bucks. Also, the optical reader just isn't good.
Christian Reyes
sometimes simple is good
WMO is worth $5 too and it's still one of the best mice ever made
Isaiah Flores
I like good quality audio, I hate audiophiles.
Hence I wired this setup up using wire I bought at walmart for $10 and I bet it sounds the same as those...whatever the hell those cable things were.
Brandon Thomas
1994 cheap dac mean cheap early tech, which mean very low performances.

Tbh it sounds kinda tinny, but to me it sounds more like the fault of that free jazz song than the headphones.

You can find really great obsolete or vintage electronics that people get rid of for low prices.

Are you fucking stupid? Those "Reference" cables probably cost more than your PC.
