Re: Spotify settings for best musical performance
Since version 18.5, Spotify has offered two updates. Both updates weren't installed within seconds as before; instead, after several minutes of downloading, the iPad had to be restarted to complete th...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
I certainly agree, version 1.8 opens up deeper paths into the music. The difference in the clips is clear and corresponds to my experience. With the upgrade, the journey through music begins anew.

Re: Speaker Cable and IC Recommendations
Years ago, I tried many variations of solid cables and rejected them all. Single, insulated, and twisted wires also offered no advantage. At the time, I also used antenna cables or their shielding to ...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
For devices with double-insulated plugs (Euro plugs), selecting the correct phase is only possible by ear. Alien and Switch use these types. Since there are only four options, it's quite easy to find ...

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises
Correct, the examples were recorded with that setup. If Alien and the Switch are powered from a separate power strip, this occasionally creates a very strange effect. The overall sound image shifts sl...

Thanks for your opinions. Admittedly, it's difficult to tell the two apart. I personally prefer C, the Friwo power supply. I'm still testing the correct order. What I find more interesting, however, i...
