| How competitive are you with your system? @toddalin You are spot on on your description of how audio recordings embedded in videos can be used to assess the sound quality of audio systems recorded from the listening position. You get it when most don’t. You understand exactly how to use t... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @cleeds You have taken. Y comments to the extreme. everyone knows that YouTube is a lossy media, but the sound conveys enough information to discern the quality of playback systems. | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @daveyf so what says you of systems that sound exceptional and great on audio recordings embedded in videos? | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @cleeds For your reference, I have two high-end studio grade mastering systems here at home so I’m quite intimately familiar with what goes on during the mastering process and the loss in audio quality suffer through the YouTube process is not tha... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @cleeds have you listen to the audio recordings of my OKTAN6 system that I shared with the group? How lossy do those sound, and if you extrapolate the level of compression & lossyness that you think is happening because of the YouTube encoding... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @devinplombier Why do think or speculate that the system audio recordings of my systems and of others don’t sound like trash? What makes our simple videos/audio recordings different than yours or anyone else’s? I assume that you have a current cel... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @devinplombier I just talking about shooting a video from the listening position but the minute you say “video” everyone gets dismissive really quick so I refer to them as “audio recordings embedded in the video”, because that is exactly what they... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @isellgoodgear Let me be the judge of what I get out of your iPhone recording. See that is the whole point of sharing the audio recordings of one’s systems from the listening position, to overcome geographical differences. I personally would not w... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @iselan I completely agree. I hope that @isellgoodgear does not turn out to be like the guys on WBF that sit around all day and write & tell you about how great their latest and greatest cost is no object system sounds, but lack the confidenc... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @isellgoodgear that is always the easy way out. Have some confidence and put an audio recording out, we know that it is not 100% representative but at least if provides some information. I hope that you do realize that this hobby is based on the c... | |
| Sharing some audio recordings from my listening session this past weekend My wife is also enjoying how the music that she likes sounds played back on my OKTAN6 system: Don’t Start Now | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @isellgoodgear post a link to an audio recording of your system. Would love to hear what you are working with. I know that it is not the same as being in the room but it will at least give us a glimpse and a flavor of the quality of your playback ... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @toddalin I agree with Alex that you need to experiment with taming some of the forwardness of the midrange because at least to me the forward presentation would lead to quick listening fatigue. @mihorn I have a Modwright Dalby Oppo-105D that I u... | |
| How competitive are you with your system? @toddalin I listened to the audio recording of your system playing Landslide and it sounds very, very good. The sound is very clear and you get the warmth & the extra harmonics from the “tube simulator” which adds body. You have a really nice ... | |
| whatsbestforum - what's going on @mahgister and @devinplombier by the way, you should know that agreeing with my quote from HiFi Haven would probably draw criticism and disbelief over at WBF as the majority of the participants on that forum believe in the opposite. |
