| The sense of smell evokes memories, while the sense of hearing evokes emotions Actually, my post above over-simplifies the question. Better sonic quality in either recording, playback, or both, can make more audible two instruments, or two voices, playing or singing notes that are close but different that lesser recordings o... | |
| The sense of smell evokes memories, while the sense of hearing evokes emotions It is the chords, melody, harmony, counterpoint, inversions, etc. in music that evoke emotion. That can be provided by even a car radio. Higher quality reproduction has more effect on the intellectual properties in music. | |
| 50 years on---the brilliance of The Band and their astounding debut album. Don’t fret n80, your experience is part of the LP learning curve! For us older guys who already had LP collections before the CD was introduced, learning about all the different pressings of an LP, and the sonic differences imbedded in their groov... | |
| Roger Modjeski discussing tubes at Burning Amp 2018 Nelson’s talk is equally interesting and illuminating. Both he and Roger were speaking to knowledgeable DIY’ers, but what they had to say should be of interest to the rest of us as well. At least half of what each had to say is above my technical ... | |
| 50 years on---the brilliance of The Band and their astounding debut album. @slaw, sorry for what Steve? No apology necessary, everything you said is fine by me! I agree about $30 being too much for an "RL" pressing of the brown LP (let alone $60!); I’ve had original UK pressings of both MFBP and the brown album since the... | |
| FR64 cartridge suggestions George told me the 15K Ohms impedance setting on the moving magnet switch in his Zesto Andros phono amp was put there specifically for London cartridges, a fair number of his friends and Zesto owners using it with that cartridge design. | |
| 50 years on---the brilliance of The Band and their astounding debut album. @n80, I feel I should tell you Music From Big Pink sounds like no other album you have ever heard, and some find it takes quite a few playings for it to "reveal" itself. I myself didn't understand it for about a year after it's release, not gettin... | |
| Cartridge for Symphonic music . The ultimate turntable for any Decca or London is the Townshend Audio Rock, the turntable with a damping trough at the headshell end of the pickup arm. As for arms, old favorites include the Zeta, Fidelity Research, Mechanic, and Mission, but any ... | |

| Roger Modjeski discussing tubes at Burning Amp 2018 As should be obvious to everyone who bothers to watch and listen to this talk by Roger, he knows an awful lot about tubes and how they can be used in amplifiers. He is also a very creative engineer, ignoring old rules and misconceptions about tube... | |
| Roger Modjeski discussing tubes at Burning Amp 2018 Thanks clio. I’ve watched Roger’s 2016 BAF talk on You Tube, which is also great. Tube amp owners (or anyone considering getting one), here’s a chance to learn how a master electronic engineer approaches designing an amp. | |
