Noise, The Audiophile's Bane
As you spend more time with this hobby, you might notice that most of things we do to improve our hifi systems are related to noise. Vibration isolation, microphonics reduction, EMI rejection, static charge avoidance, quantization filtering, intermodulated hiss rejection, crosstalk reduction, harmonics shaping and more come to mind. This episode of The Hifi Podcast is dedicated to the chief antagonist in the playback equation: noise in all its hideous forms.
