Home Computer Audio Asylum

Music servers and other computer based digital audio technologies.

Nicely Summarized -

"Reading these forums gave me the impression that all kinds of stuff makes a big difference . . . and I figured I'd risk "broken" sonics if I didn't get it just so"

I think we can use this as the standing definition for COMPUTER audiophile nervosa. Every single variable in a living breathing computer OS makes a difference, and there are 1 x 10^237 iterations of these variables. Must try each one in late night subjective listening tests.
Must OPTIMIZE everything. Must SYNERGIZE everything. Must TWEAK everything. And I mean the differences are 'NOT SUBTLE' and 'WIFE HEARD IT IN THE NEXT ROOM' differences. Or, (this is my favorite) 10 or so tweaks or setting changes may not be individually audible but COLLECTIVELY they add up to sonic nirvana.

If this subgroup of AA did not eventually come down to 100% total audiophile nervosa, well, it wouldn't belong on this particular site now would it!! ;)

Cheers,
Presto
