| Before the music emerges from your speakers.... *L* djones, it seems nearly any trade has it's own lingo....I look at the NWS pages for their weather info, maps, radar, satellite imagery because we work outdoors as much as in shop. Reading the 'forecast discussion' is where the 'real meat' is,... | |
| Before the music emerges from your speakers.... @tuberist ...No offense taken, but thank you for the concern. It takes a lot more than print to ruffle my feathers. ;) I'm not totally aware of how I 'come off' when read, so I tend to be generous in interpreting what gets posted. focus on wha... | |
| Before the music emerges from your speakers.... The recording of Ms Jarosz' "House of Mercy" is a treat for me. Spare, simple, and capture of acoustic guitars in a way that reminds me of sitting next to one being played in a quiet room...Having been in that situation, it invokes memories of da... | |
| Before the music emerges from your speakers.... @sonicjoy..."In a Perfect World"....Absolutely; that would be the answer for 'our market'....As you point out, not very likely....unless one knows 'someone' close to the 'process' and they gift you with a copy. Which would likely be a digital fil... | |
| Before the music emerges from your speakers.... @glupson...and now, the 'ear buds' are likely part of the testing. Welcome to the New World. The 'natives' may not have 'rituals' you like...;)@delkal...*S* It's like soup....Too much salt (or any other seasoning) screws it up..unless it's what ... | |
| Before the music emerges from your speakers.... *G* Well, I didn't create her title; it goes with the trade after all...And 'mousing' is pretty much SOTA these days, since the software is doing the 'heavy lifting; (such as that is...).Yes, I do read BTW. *S* I opened this forum to see the ran... | |
| Before the music emerges from your speakers.... ...one should also note the $ spent on the equipment employed to allow her to do her job.......and How she listens to the 'product' in her car...You might hate and squirm at the 'Low Common Denominator' factor in that.....but that's the market.You... | |
| What is "break in" and what difference does it make? In amps? Preamps? Speakers? More? *L* ....and "what's wrong with audiophiles?" has been beaten into a coma already...and what's left is developing an 'aroma'.....Perhaps the best advice I can offer the OP comes from M. Python's 'Holy Grail' epic:"RUN AWAY!" *L* (Give thanks and ... | |
| Does Digital Try Too Hard? @cleeds , thanks for the link...'lollipop' markers and all...;) Noting that the vid is also from 2013-ish does allow for the improvements of DAC's and digital clock speeds. 24/96 seems to be (more or less) being considered 'acceptable' generally... | |
| Welcome to Pro Audio @axememan...Using Behringer products; 2 Ultra-curve 8024 eq's, an Ultra-drive 2496 xover, and an Ultra-pro MX882 splitter/mixer. The latter is for muddling around with feeds to my back channels, varying what & how much 'goes there'. Cheap th... | |
| A change in efficiency to the final sound @millercarbon , +1Well stated, and defended. And being a 'fanatic' just indicates a level of enthusiasm above the mid-point of the bell curve...MHO.Now, if one shows up @ AXPONA dressed in album sleeves with a hat like a woofer.....that could ind... | |
| What's Worth More on the Open Market - Your Records or Your Audio Gear @bdp24 ...Bonzo Dog !? You have BDDDB? *L*Wonderful...there's hope in these pages yet....;)Now, if anyone has the Sadistic Mika Band LP, I really would be shocked...*L* (Japanese; a quirky little treat....*G*)I don't own anywhere near the stated ... | |
| Does Digital Try Too Hard? ...not too sure about vacuum tubes, though.... | |
| Does Digital Try Too Hard? @terry9 ....and that's where the algorithms have been dispatched to 'smooth' the 'lumps 'n bumps'. DAC's have made tremendous inroads in that regard....*S* No end in sight...or for D amps, either.As processors speeds continue to accelerate (Moo... | |
| Who else here is frugal? @glupson...and I didn't respond to your query re 'homes', which I meant as a 'owned residence'; a single-family house. As opposed to an apartment, condo, or that which one can't 'enhance' without raising ire or some similar crop of irritance..;)Y... |
