Great interview thank you! Phil Jones is always a good at explaining the features and translating them into benefits for the consumer. In addition he is so jacked, it must be a requirement for anyone who has to lift all the receivers, amplifiers, and speakers.

THANKS MAD 🤗FOR INTERVIEWING PHIL 💚💚💚

Very informative, thanks! Big fan of the interview series 👌

Thanks for asking about the turntables! Interested to see what comes next, hopefully something with electronic speed change!

Well done securing this interview…. Really great 🎉

21:16 The problem is not phasing on MultEQ-X. It's the limitation on delay control to the sub. When it's 20ms Audyssey can't get phases right and Dirac win the game. Dirac has 50ms to play with. I have been shouting about this already over a year and nobody seems to be listening at Masimo.

Oooo excellent interview, Thanks to you and to mr. Jones Cartridge is Clearaudio Virtuoso, ya its expensive. *edited*

Enjoyed the conversation

Phil is a good guy

Thats odd about the pricing, when i got my old av amps from a few years back the Denon flagship was always more expensive then the Marantz flagship

'm French and I don't understand everything 100%, can someone summarize in 2 lines the differences between Dirac / Audissey please?

The problem with DIRAC is the super high price. They took a simple software, broke it down to separate pieces and sell it for 700$ for one unit. Sorry DIRAC, I'm not ready to pay 700$ to experiment with a software that has very limited use and that I'm not sure that the results will be better than than of the free Audyssey.

It’s too bad the Denon have measured better on the bench for years….
