mapman Resolution is way overrated
I agree. Almost my live recordings are MP4 or MP3. Alex/Wavetouch

Warm vs Revealing—the struggle for balance
For me my upgrade path has been finding balance between warmth and dynamics/detail.
It’s looks something like this: find satisfaction (Raven Nighthawk + Tekton), get upgrade bug seeking more dynamics, get more revealing gear (Ma 352), feel fatigued, buy new tubes (Telefunken) and speakers (SF Olympica); want more dynamics (Mc 601 + c50), I immediately get tube pre because of fatigue (c2300), still too sharp (new tubes and DAC); excellent balance, but of course sell speakers, new speakers too revealing, buy Cardas cables to replace Wireworld (ahh just right for now, but may be a little more revealing might be nice).
And oh yeah, working on fixing the damn room problems!
Chasing the unicorn.
Anyone else doing this back and forth?

I agree. The best way to pursuit the reality is recreating the original music by comparison. The orig music is a reference and betters to all reproduced audio sounds. It is hard to compare your system sound and the orig music because your ears trick you always. You need to live record your sound system and compare with the original music. Alex/Wavetouch |
