This card is supposed to reduce nose between PCI cards for video capture or something.

I have no idea what that is an amp for, nor why it has so many tubes, but ask any guitarist and they'll tell you tube vs digital makes a difference. For audiophiles just listening to music? Probably not so much.

Tubs amps soft clip, the signal gets rounded out instead of getting cut off to fit a square wave.
The hendrix sound is like 5 amplifiers overdriven connected in series or some shit. Nigga was crazy.

What the fuck ?
Who are these people listening to him ?
>>52105467
depends
if the audiophile is using a 400wpc amp with good capacitance and sensitivity, the signal funneled into the preamp should be as low in noise as possible

I hope you guys are ready for some shit.
"The Tunnelbridge is an elaborate, powered interconnect system. It features a stand-alone power supply unit that powers the Tunnelbridge interconnects for two purposes: first, to clone the incoming audio signal in real time, and second, to enable the two isolated circuits within the interconnects to create the conditions that allow distortion to arise only in relation to the cloned signal. This way the audio signal remains perfectly preserved, unaffected by distortion at all points through the entire cable length. The cloned signal, purposely created to be subjected to all distortion, is then intentionally discarded, never able to enter your gear."

Now i know why scam sites are using this series to sell fake mental pills. This shit is really dumb.

In the sense that you have to mimic the strong distortion coming from an amplifier. The more extensive the non-linearity, the difficult and computationally intensive it gets. Naturally, these are designed to be distortion machines, therefore...
A read for those interested.

I design amps. The circuitry for this must be horrifying, it was bad enough with dual triode tubes...
>>52106266
>This is the only cable that can provide the necessary bandwidth for displaying real-time readouts from my Flux Capacitor since I updated the multi 8 bit LED display to 4K. An unexpected side-effect in updating the display was realizing that I only needed to hit 87.5 MPH before, and I had been rounding up unintentionally this whole time. The lower speed threshold correlated nicely into a reduction in plutonium requirement. I don’t think I need to tell you, but the cost savings in my monthly plutonium bill has more than made up for what seems to be an initially high price for a cable. I’ve been using this cable for 47 years, and can tell you, these things are made to last!

They help reduce RF noise to other devices.

They may not be a guarantee of quality but any cable without them is sub-standard.
>>52105999
>>52106036
I have no idea how bullshit this particular product is, but what they're describing sounds pretty similar to how I recall balanced cabling (like XLR cables) work to minimize distortion.
>>52105610
Holy shit
>>52104926
Makes as much sense as car audio capacitors, IMO. Also, there are some PC power supplies that integrate a capacitor right into the end of their connectors and show better power regulation because of it.

I live with three guitarists and I think the entire breed is obsessed to a delusional level with attaining the perfect sound. Obviously there's some degree of pedals, good amps, etc that matter, but they go fucking crazy over shit that nobody who sees them live will be able to recognize, and that won't even be audible through normal people's shitty car stereos and computer speakers.

>>52105467
depends on what you're listening to and with what. There's a lot of cases where the tubes are overkill but not every one is.
>>52113399
and yet, many successful musicians (and artists) these days just go with louder = better, meanwhile losing out on details unnecessarily

Still cant tell of this is a guy or girl.
>>52105999
So it purposefully corrupts an input and then discards it?
I wonder if there's any way to make it send the corrupted signal instead of the clean one.
I want to hear it.

I love it when they refuse to take double-blind tests between digital and analog equipment.
Where the fuck I can find these anyways? My acuarium needs some
>>52113399
Depends in the breed really. I work with guitarrists too, but them also have formal studies and know when something is snake oil.
Pedals and amps are another thing, mostly they want control over the timbre changes they could made. Audiophiles, instead, try to dispell anxiety about supposed bad audio quality.
Yep. Snake oil are also "services".
>>52106326
They are probably all parallel output. If you take a bunch of low output impedance tubes and put them all in parallel, you don't need an output transformer.
>>52105931
Atheros managed to rebrand it as a high-end gaming NIC once people forgot about it, and figured most vendors knew that if modern gamers are buying an X-series board, they're already falling for some severe snake oil
>>52106036
that sounds like ordinary cable shielding, except the shielding has signal being passed through it for whatever reason
I have no idea how running the signal through the shielding would help.
>>52113294
For Best Buy or Audioquest? 50% for Best Buy is not a lot considering the Insignia and Rocketfish cables are close to 80%, but yea Audioquest does make a ton off those.

>Makes as much sense as car audio capacitors
>He's never heard of BatCaps
Although, an HO alternator would be the best to combat voltage drop.
>>52113632
My only wish would be that the power supply is actually completely empty besides the lightbulb and maybe the capacitors were instead D-volt batteries.
>>52108283
I remember getting curious enough and cracking one of these open on an old nintendo plug
It's just a little loop they made in the wire wtf does it even do, my best guess as a child was to add support to the wire so it wouldn't short as easy
