Some Test Tracks to check for Absolute Phase!
https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/ABX i might setup a blind test here tomorrow, i just have to see how i switch polarity of one song and where to upload these so it works since i dont have dropbox- Ghoostknight

Some Test Tracks to check for Absolute Phase!
You are free to invalidate the tests i did with thinking i did it with random clicks... beside this, i could just do as many DBT till i got a 10/10... the only advantage you got with seeing the score is that you know when you have to reload the page lol so i guess even with a proper DBT result...- Ghoostknight

Both, i just did the audiocheck.net blind test again but i cant get 10/10 first try was in a post before with 15/21 i think- Ghoostknight

DIY Ground Box Thread
thanks, yes i would also say i like the more subtle effect with no magnet more, tho kinda crazy "how much" magnets seem to effect things i will definitely order some magnetite, i just have to find a good source, did you guys order the Fe3O4 powder stuff?- Ghoostknight

DIY Ground Box Thread
Can you describe what magnetite does and what the magnets do? i really just did a quick test, the effect with magnet is definitely more audible, the question is whether its better..... under smoky quartz a magnet REALLY becomes annoying... under black tourmaline it honestly feels like it...- Ghoostknight

DIY Ground Box Thread
Could you guys test something for me and report back what you find? I was curious about the magnetite you guys use.... i grabbed some fridge magnets and put them (under) the piezoelectric crystals i have on top of my speakers, it really seems to amplify the effect, like i think costa reported...- Ghoostknight

first time reading someone else tried prehnite, how do you like it? did you do some test with it "isolated" ?- Ghoostknight

Some Test Tracks to check for Absolute Phase!
well lets go by a 2 way design my speakers cross over at around 1,8khz i think if we look at the phaseshift of the low crossover section it probably begins to shift at 1khz or so, phase under 1khz will probably stay relatively flat in correct phase usually the tweeter is wired out of phase...- Ghoostknight

the point is absolute phase is audible, no matter how messed up the actual phase is of a particular song just make sure you listen to it like the artist intended ;)- Ghoostknight

540 - 360 : 180 imo 160 is the better one ;) Well sorry, actually if you talk about 2 mic setups you may flip one mic's polarity, so the recorded phase lines up with eachother because of different distances from mic to sound source, and i guess you could in theory line them up "perfectly"...- Ghoostknight

well if we talk about "preference" than there is no point to argue about correct phase/polarity imo personally i take inversed phase songs as what they are, what the producer heared/intended (and i hope they heared it with a correct polarity playback system), i dont bother switching phase for...- Ghoostknight

well i felt like i have to clarify it here, since people seemed missinformed and actually mixed up my posts in the science and tweaks forum :) there was a reason why my answers were fairly short after you said it, to not get lost in pointless arguing again...- Ghoostknight

please... maybe in your mind having 10-20% (obviously) messed up recordings means there is no point to care about this but everyone who notice this will also notice that in modern music there isnt that often obvious phase issues also the way you produce electronic music... i think people are...- Ghoostknight

Distributed, 3-line capacitive power conditioning
this only matters for the ground-inductor ... you dont have to plug anything in, you can use it as passive parallel filter too, it should have 3 caps inside + ground inductor i meant the filter in the link
