I don't possess neither the instruments nor the knowledge to do such tests. But I will do a blind test when I get the chance. Thanks for sharing :) I don't. I am not saying that my experience is objective. I KNOW that I tested in a way which in many occasions was very close to a blind test, and...

I tested the cables 3 days straight several hours a day with many songs and at some point it was like a blind test because in many occasions I had no idea anymore what I had plugged (I had a system where I didn't need to watch) and I had to check to be sure. EVERY SINGLE TIME that I felt that...

I am not convinced that the drop in encode quality depends on the signal. I know that it says "when the radio quality is poor" but I also had it occasionally when I was right in front. I think it depends on other factors but I couldn't say which. In my case though, it didn't happen often. At...

I consider content more important than form, and I find that insinuating that someone's trolling/flamebaiting is much more disrespectful than saying shit and fuck. We're all adults anyway. As long as there's no insult, some spice is fun ;) Well, I still didn't quite understand all the theory of...

No need to assume, the same fingers you used to type your findness you can use them to click on my profile and check my activity. NONE since one comment in 2023 (like I had just written in my previous comment btw). FYI (no, it's not fuck yourself idiot, it's really just for your info), mine was...

The fact is, I did NOT expect the Golden Gate to sound warmer. I expected them to sound "better", "purer", more "neutral", more "open". Not warmer, which besides not being my favorite tone means that they color the sound. I'd not be ashamed at all if it was placebo. Indeed I'm open for the...

It's a good thing (or maybe a bad one, depending on whom you'd ask) that you didn't swear on your life, otherwise you'd be dead by now. I joined in 2023 after finding this place by chance with a google search about LDAC, and I did only to thank someone for mentioning the Alternative A2DP Driver...

I don't think it was placebo. I am perfectionist, obsessive, and experienced in comparisons of many kinds. I go for hours and hours over several days, comparing this and that over and over again to consider as many variables as possible and to be sure that I'm not placeboing myself. I am quite...

It's not the topic of this thread but allow me to ask: Is FLAC truly lossless? And if it is not, would its lossyness match that of LDAC? I explain my (maybe wrong) thought process: let's suppose that FLAC is 95% lossless, and LDAC too. Does that mean that playing FLAC through LDAC doesn't take...

First I'd like to share my experience. I'm not an expert by any means and I don't own a 2000 Euro pair of headphones which require special Ohms or whatever. I own a pair of Sony WH-1000XM4 for when I go out and Audeze Maxwell for when I stay home. I am a sucker for spatial virtualization. But...

Hello knowledgeable people. I got my Audeze Maxwell, which atm I use in Bluetooth with the Alternative A2DP Driver, so I have LDAC. I choose this over the supposedly (according to Audeze) preferable USB Dongle because the latter only supports 48000 and 96000, making the use of exclusive mode in...

Pplease donn't appologize. You did me a bigg favor. I was waiting for something like this. Thanks ;)
