Audioholics is giving away a really cool subwoofer. And the more people that click the link above, the more entries I get in the contest. The contest says after you click you have to "complete one action." Not entirely sure what that means. Maybe play the video on the page for a second or scroll to the bottom?

And if you want a cool subwoofer, you can enter the contest as well. I promise it is a legit site and a legit contest. Audioholics is well renowned in the home theater community.

So if you don't want a sub, click the link, scroll around, and go about your day. And if you do, click the link and enter the contest.

Thanks!

Learning HDMI 2.1 

I’m still waiting for my Denon AVC-X4800H to arrive. In the meantime, I thought it would be a good idea to revisit the HDMI 2.1 topic. This would be my second time watching the video by Gene and Philip Jones that Audioholics recorded 2 years ago. If you’re interested in AV receivers, you might find these videos helpful. They cover a range of topics in 3 part YouTube video, including HDMI…

Clean two channel by @hi_fi_racks_ltd ・・・ To achieve the very best acoustic performance from your equipment, the multi-award-winning Podium Reference merges the natural qualities of solid hardwood with precision-machined stainless steel isolation spikes and leg coupling bar to achieve market-leading acoustic clarity. Combining a Podium Reference rack with Podium T5 IV Speaker Stands, @adsellis13 was able to achieve the best possible performance from his @kef_audio and @musical_fidelity set-up. The Podium T5 IVs features the same thickness of top plinth as the tiers of the Podium Reference rack for a seamless finish, incorporating 40mm solid hardwood with 46mm² legs for rigidity and support. Just like the Podium Reference, these stands can be created to any bespoke, width, depth or height, enabling total customisation - as demonstrated in Adam's bespoke stands which perfectly fit the footprint of his Kef speakers. Available in a range of solid hardwoods and solid oak finishes to suit the interior of your home or studio. Thank you very much to Adam for the great photos. #hifiracks #audiophile #audio #solidwood #britishmanufacturer #bespoke #UK #soundquality #audioholic #audiolife #hififurniture #hifirack #avfurniture #lovemusic #homeaudio #pickbritish #yoursetup #audioaddicts #hififans #happycustomers #customersetup #hificommunity #hifilovers #turntable #hifisetup #audioquality #soundup https://www.instagram.com/p/B_p5IJ5JnxH/?igshid=h0ms5pa5dpl1

There is a YouTuber called Cheap Audio Man and I was a fan of his for a long time because he always found cool audio gear that didn't break the bank and helped people figure out how to put together audiophile systems without a huge investment.

But lately, he has been talking about how speaker wire and power cables can improve the quality of your sound and I am just... really disappointed. It is now making me question a lot of his content. He has tainted all of his audio advice.

Expensive wire and cables are basically snake oil that uses the placebo effect to dupe audiophiles with too much money or beginners who don't know any better. Changes in sound can easily be measured by equipment much more sensitive than our ears and there is no evidence that changing your cables can make an audible difference. The only exception might be if you have speaker wire or a power cable that is too thin and cannot handle the amount of power your system needs. And honestly, you do not want your wire to change the sound. You want it to faithfully deliver the signal from your components to your speakers without alteration.

Pushing this narrative can make it easier for audio newbies to get scammed by these overpriced cables when they could improve their sound much more dramatically in other ways. Some of these wires can cost hundreds to even thousands of dollars. (See AudioQuest)

I think I am particularly sensitive to this because when I worked at Best Buy as a teenager, my bosses used to make me push gold printer and USB cables to customers. They would tell us to make up advantages like how it would speed up your printing or make your prints more vibrant. Nonsense like that.

I just don't like people getting screwed because they are trusting the expertise of someone who claims to know better.

I would recommend Audioholics because they always back up their claims with science and objective measurements. Unfortunately their idea of a budget speaker still costs over $1000. I suppose in a relative sense that might be considered "budget" to some. But for gear under $1K they are not a wonderful source.

I love Audioholics for their scientific analysis and no bullshit approach to being an audiophile.

But I wish they would stop saying $2000 speakers are "budget."
