In response to some recent discussions on distortion and audio reproduction quality, here's Nelson Pass of Pass Labs.

Nothing beats live music my friend. These are but opines of lament. That they can't sing.
She pointed out something that is often overlooked when thinking about the theory of digital audio. 48kHz is theoretically enough to reproduce the entire audio band, but with stereo or more channels, the sample rate determines the size of the "steps" of delay between channels.
I would love to build an Amp. Excuse my lack of knowledge but 8 watts? I do understand that tube amplifiers are different but it just seems like it's not enough power? I certainly need to do a bit of reading.

Mind wondering, thinking about a setup I have. I purchased a set of Pinnacle Classic Gold, Floor standing speakers, center channel, rear bookshelf and powered sub about 25 years ago. I really Liked the sound from them when I heard them in the store. I had them hooked up to a Sony Ga7 Es receiver and I never really liked the sound from them once I had them at home. It seemed like they were missing the highs. Eventually the wife decided they were too big and wanted a smaller footprint surround sound. I replaced the whole setup with a Yamaha RX-A710 and an Energy Classic 5.1 surround setup, which fit the wife's request and sound pretty good. I still have the Pinnacles and would like to set them back up. My question is could the issue with the Pinnacle speakers be the receiver I had them hooked up to? The Sony Ga7 Es I have is from the early 90's. Do I need to find an Amp that matches the speakers, if that makes sense? Sorry if I'm hijacking the thread Alaric, I didn't think you'd mind.
