| Active isolation; what can it do for music reproduction? A point that should be made is isolation is the long-term path to higher ultimate sound quality, "tuning" limited to short-term gains, but ultimately a ceiling, or dead end. | |
| The sonic rightness of a mono system. IMO, a better analogy than black & white photography to mono sound is black & white film, which I myself great prefer to color (for a glorious example, see The Coen Brother's "The Man Who Wasn't There"). Mono recordings must be reproduced ... | |
| HAIL TO THE KING..GINGER BAKER In the Playboy Poll George Harrison was voted a better sitar player than Ravi Shankar. Tells you more about Playboy's readers than anything else. | |
| Active isolation; what can it do for music reproduction? Fantastic, thanks Mike. I need to rob a bank. | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? Mike (we're all on a first name basis, right? ;-), I would love to hear your findings in regard to active isolation. I saw and heard a Herzan (under Audiogon member folkfreak's EAR-Yoshino table), and am sold on extreme degrees of isolation. Not m... | |

The last Byrds album I bothered to listen to was the double untitled, which had only one good song---"Chestnut Mare." I then wrote them o... | |
| An enjoyable evening watching "Country Music Live At The Ryman" on AZ PBS. I’m green with envy, @edcyn! I somehow managed to miss The Byrds with Clarence up in NorCal. I’ve been to The Troubadour many times (once on it’s stage), that would have been a great place to see and hear he and they. I have mixed feelings about t... | |
