Tweakers' Asylum Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ. |

Some systems just aren't resolving enough to hear much of the grunge that plagues high end equipment--the grunge caused by RFI in particular. And speaking of plagues, this site has recently been under attack by a group of "objectivists" who almost never reveal what their own equipment is, and usually don't try any of the tweaks that they attack. In lieu of listening, they base their conclusions on on severely constricted view of the rules of logic and an even narrower view of the scientific method. Since some of the tweaks in question are only audible on highly resolving equipment, discounting them because of one's experience with mid-fi components is really irrelevant. Criticizing a tweak without ever trying it is unjustifiable--on scientific grounds.
