Re: What does hi-fi mean
Let me ask you something Richard. Do you make any music? My understanding is you try to make High Fidelity replay equipment. I've also read somewhere you don't spend much time listening to music. I think you have Spotify, or similar on as background music as you work. Do you not think it might be wi...

Re: What does hi-fi mean
I think you've misunderstood me.
I'm trying to answer the question you asked. I like to be able to help people understand these things.
I've even provided a definition for you.
Of course I can't make you accept the definition but there it is none the less.

Re: What does hi-fi mean
According to some peoples judgment I do indeed listen to noise, crap, test tones, etc.
Whose reality should I be looking at, yours or mine?

Re: What does hi-fi mean
I can't see anything about music in any of the dictionary definitions.

Re: What does hi-fi mean
It doesn’t mean any of the above. Hi Fi means High Fidelity and the term was coined to describe the mediums ability to accurately reproduce either the source, or the media. It has absolutely nothing to do with music. It has nothing to do with sound. It may under certain circumstances have something ...

Re: Radio Paradise
My favorite station for music. Hats off to them for surviving the fire and getting up and running again so quickly.
They've been around a long time.

Re: Value for money Hi Fi - does it exist
I admit it, for years my perception of 'good' hi fi equipment has been based on a) reviews; b) cost (you get what you pay for as they say...don't you?!) and, c) (more latterly), users comments on forums. However, having joined the NVA fold fairly recently, encouraged mostly by the Doc's clear, unam...

Re: Interesting how some integrate audio into their living space?
Hmm.... https://www.pinkfishmedia.net/forum/threads/system-pics-2019.223146/ Alfi. There's some lovely looking kit in that thread. Amazing how much money people spend on their stereo systems. Would I spend that much? Sure, if I had that sort of money I probably would. I didn't notice any bragging, ...

Re: I am finally at a loss for words.
I’m curios now. What happens if someone joins HFS and says he/she has bought these things and to their ears they really do make a difference. Are you going to call them deaf, stupid maybe, a shill? I can recall some of the flac I got when I split the USB cable to my HRT Pro Dac and attached the powe...
