    I don’t understand the basis of the 24Hz limit rumor. My monitors are 144Hz, and if I limit them to 60Hz and move my mouse around I see fewer residual mouse cursors “after-images” than I do at 144Hz. That’s a simplified test that shows that the eye can perceive motion artifacts beyond 60Hz.

    The eye can perceive LEDs that are rectified at 60Hz AC, it’s very annoying.








  • Yeah the entire article smells like gold plated HDMI cables from Monster, as if that somehow improves the quality of digital signals.

    Sony has judiciously used gold across the internals of the NW-ZX707, including its solder and reflow solder elements, to further improve sound localization.

    Gold has a higher resistivity than copper. Resistance adds noise. It’s probably just for corrosion resistance.

    Another reason audiophiles have come to appreciate the NW-ZX707 is something called the vinyl processor that lends the unmistakable character of vinyl discs back to their digital tracks.

    So they further distort the sound to replicate lower quality equipment? They’re definitely not making it sound more like the original by introducing vinyl artifacts.

    This is some serious hobbyist pricing bait, but I can’t judge since I’ve got my own dumb expensive hobbies.
