    Question for LG OLED TV Owners

    I have had my 65" OLED for 2 years now and I still get excited sometimes, especially when a movie has a scene with a colour scheme that you don't normally see on TV, like a rich orange sunset. Love it and worth every penny.

    Debunked! MQA is bad, and misleading you!

    Of course listening is important. The problem is that we can't listen to all the equipment out there when we make our purchasing decisions. And every manufacturer claims to have the best, most perfect product you can possibly imagine. So how do you choose your short list? What the objective...

    Debunked! MQA is bad, and misleading you!

    Agreed. In fact GoldenSound who posted this video debunking the MQA marketing garbage is an active member of ASR. We need more science in our hobby and less marketing nonsense.

    Shopping around for TV

    I also vote for OLED. Worth the extra money.

    Similar tier USB DAC/HPA to Denon DM41's DAC/HPA?

    You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Have a look at this video and tell me again that your ears are the accurate part of the equation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2k8fHR9jKVM

    Similar tier USB DAC/HPA to Denon DM41's DAC/HPA?

    A DAC that measures well isn't cold or digital, its accurate. That means it sounds the way the music is supposed too. If it sounds cold and digital it is introducing as much error as a warm, analogue one. Buy an accurate DAC so that you get the best sound reproduction from that source. Then...

    What lawyers want

    The lawyers are right though. All assets go into the deceased estate and only an executor can dispose of them. He must settle the debts of the estate from the proceeds, and only then can the rest go the widow. You might not like it, but it is the law.

    Similar tier USB DAC/HPA to Denon DM41's DAC/HPA?

    Same thing, unless you like your DAC to introduce distortion and artefacts to sound "warm" and "analogue". I also recommend the Topping E30.

    Run flat tyres

    I once drove over a nail at 3 in the morning while driving past a township with lots of shady characters on the side of the street. I was very thankful to have run flats that night - I just kept on driving home and sorted it out in the morning. If I had a regular spare tyre I might not be here now.

    Another SpaceX failure

    No they wouldn't have been. This booster is to get them off planet and then separate from the astronaut vehicle. The astronauts would be on their way to Mars with the rest of the ship when this returns to Earth.

    Another SpaceX failure

    Also, the test flights they are carrying out are successful (ie. the human cargo part of the flight). The landing part is after the flight has occurred and is about reusing the rocket rather than just ditching it in the ocean like NASA and the Russians have been doing for decades. That's just...

    Is Zeos a 'good' reviewer?

    Lots of rambling, not much content in his videos. Pass.

    Daft Punk - Epilogue

    The writing has pretty much been on the wall for anyone paying attention. They haven't released anything since 2013's Random Access Memories.

    Online review channel, yes or no?

    Definitely yes. It would be good to have South African perspectives on equipment instead of always US/UK views.

    What does a good DAC look like

    No it doesn't sound worse. It sounds accurate. What you have to come to terms with is that your ears don't like accurate. Which is perfectly acceptable, many of us don't (which is why vinyl is still so popular). For my part I believe a DAC should be as accurate as possible. If you want to...
