On Building Quality

Submitted by robertG on

Some MP3 files DO sound BETTER on cheap playback equipment. MP3 files CAN sound good on high resolution playback equipment. MP3 quality CAN be very good - or awful - or anywhere in between and ultimately depends on the talent of the recording/mixing/mastering engineer.

Is this a lot of juice?

In the papers following my amplifier, it says that it is capable of 150Wpc i 8 Ohms, 230Wpc i 4 Ohms, but a mindblowing +/- 40 Amperes of peak current.

In my book this is pretty much, but knowing my amp very well (on year 4 now), I have no reason to not believe it. How much current is your amp capable of letting go, compared to the Wattage?

Ah, how the times change. When I <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/headphones/805">reviewed</A&gt; Etymotic Research's ER-4S in-ear headphones in the July 1995 <I>Stereophile</I>, they seemed expensive to me at $330, but well worth that seemingly high price: at the time, they were the best headphones I'd heard. Nowadays, with reference headphones costing well north of a kilobuck, the price of the ER-4S seems relatively reasonable.
