Or you could buy an in/on-line UPS that gives you absolute clean power because it always runs off battery. Not that it actually matters because good amplifiers are stuffed with large capacitors specifically to have smooth power. That's where most of the weight is in those things.
I think when it comes to digital this problem does not exist. Also I would think capacitors and things of the like would balance the frequency in an analog setting. Also also the power grid has to ramp up and fall down to meet demand, wouldn’t that still affect the performance of his stuff? Theres no way this makes any sense right?
The sort of answer is some can. My thought is if it’s nominal ordinal interval or ratio. It’s not enough to hear a diff. Can you say that one is better? I swear on my life that I can hear the diff with cardas wiring inside. I’ve posted my build. What matters is that you enjoy your build. I’ll never go to vinyl but I will prob spend the next 5 winters studying tractrix horn shapes for 3” tang band drivers. The diff between commercial and good sound is literally spiritual, imo, but I’ve got an asd
that's silly...especially when you consider that the room he is listening to music in is not acoustically pure with too many angular surfaces to produce artifacts on reflected sound. I had a friend back in the 70s whose dad converted a basement room into a perfect acoustic room with acoustic padding on certain parts of the walls to prevent artifacts. His audio came from two class-A amps and a Pioneer reel to reel feeding into a pair of Klipsh corner speakers that stood 4 feet tall.
The single listening chair was at the exact acoustic center and was bolted to the floor. It was a simple vinyl chair on metal legs. When you heard music from that system, sitting in that chair, it sounded like the music was coming from inside your head! I have never heard anything like that since!
We tried. We got our hands on a nice pair of KLH open headphones and a pair of Sennheiser studio closed headphones (we had friends in the audio biz who lent us these headphones) and plugged then directly into the pre-amp. It wasn't the same. We discovered that the Klipsh speakers created subsonic audio that cause an expansion to materialize inside the body that you could feel and complimented the audible aspect as well.

If, like me, you HATE it when horizontal videos are posted in a vertical format, you here is the original clip from YouTube.

Need 'pure' electricity, and then listen on an inherently flawed media, a record player.

Can humans really hear well enough to justify that?

Probably not, but you'll never convince us of that

whh wait....you do realize that voltage regulators are cheap, right?

A pacemaker to keep the tainted blood flowing proper, you say?

Bookshelves and record shelves make really good acoustic treatments
trhopkins
It's not even that.... Im guessing he has never heard of "Dolby"

Dolby is nice, but it does color the audio. The sound is no longer pure.
