I started looking into this a while ago, but didn't get very far. The best source of hackintosh info I found was Tonymacx86. If you do continue, please document your efforts and share with us.

I'm now a paid subscriber.

Like several others who posted here, I'm not a fan of the subscription model for CA. But I finally decided to view it as a request for donations, and I'm happy to...

It's not just the lowest frequencies.

The A used for tuning -- the one that's six notes up from middle C on a piano -- is 440 hZ, which (according to my questionable math) results in a wavelength...

I agree with bdiament -- not that he needs it -- but I may have a simpler experiment which you can do from the comfort of your listening chaise lounge/couch/bean bag chair.

Put on any music which...

I learned, though painful experience, not to go mucking around with things on my computer which (a) I don't understand and (b) can't be easily remedied. Yup, had to do a full install of the system...

@orgel Thanks for providing some numbers. One of the most frustrating things about addressing the piracy issues is the paucity of good data. I think it's beyond contention that the RIAA is massively...

@wgscott Fair enough. I recognize the appeal to authority as a fallacy. In my defense, I was just trying to figure out a set up for Anti-Anthropogenic Global Warming Audiophile. I would totally...

@dallasjustice One of the terrific things about this forum is the amount of comity it has. Accusing another member of a hidden agenda goes against that.

Also, you might wish to reconsider the...

Chris:

Yes, you can't play New York every night. But Chuck, being based in D.C., would routinely play at venues in Maryland and Virginia, as well as do tours in the south.

Again, Chuck never...

Sorry -- should have included this below.

A while back the London Times ran an article (sorry, link broken) on music revenue, and tossed up this chart and analysis:

1143


The most...

I have three quibbles with the Trichordist.

1. He makes a big deal about these claims:


Recorded music revenue is down 64% since 1999.

Per capita spending on music is 47% lower than it...

Dr. Thompson, so good of you to join us.

@Jay192. Sorry to hear about your god-son, but I agree with Paul that lack of motivation and a DGAF attitude happens to most teen-agers. In addition, most teenagers I've known have an extremely...

Here was my situation.

In my bedroom, I had a pair of AudiioEngine A5s (the old version) running off of an Airport Express (old version) through an AudioEngine D1 DAC. Connecting the DAC to the...

Assuming you are using iTunes, first go to Preferences > Advanced and make sure that you've selected Copy Music files to iTunes Media folder when adding to Library. Now copy and paste your files into...

If you're using the mini solely as a music server, you'll find that any of the processors do the job well and run at about 5% of maximum CPU processing. Going with the i7 means that you could...

This is the most anonymous poll I've ever seen.

Or am I high ....

I think I get it.


"The second generation AirPort Express shows a reduction of 41% (average) and 18% (peak) jitter on the digital optical output. Comparing jitter and THD on the analog output of...

If you were using the Firewire cable to power the HD, you wouldn't have issues with noise from a converter. But would RFI noise remain (and would it be an issue?)

I bought the 24/192 version of one of Barry's discs, Americas by Paul Beaudry & Pathways. I'm not sure I've ever music, digital or analog, sound this good. Kudos to Barry.

After reading the review, I have to admit that I don't understand how any HD cable could improve sound quality if you're using memory play.

I looked into this issue a year ago, and purchased one of the few premium-ish cables recommended on this site from Granite Digital. It ran about $40 and seems very well constructed, but I can't say...

What do you mean by "cutting"?

If you mean converting the files, then I don't think you have many options. I transferred a couple of records in Logic Pro on a 2010 Mac Pro, and the conversion...

It depends on where you're streaming from. If you're streaming from an iOS device, you can only send it to one set of speakers.

If you are streaming from an OS device, you can choose multiple sets...

I love my REL, and I appreciate the time and effort they put into their user's guide. Placing the sub and getting the cross-over right takes an hour or two, and it will probably need tweaking later...
