| Which speakers to isolate first? @mvanwoert CD318 - you didn't include the video link. It seems to display ok on my phone via Firefox. Oh well let's try again - it's well worth a look at! Speakers in Rooms - Considerations for the Best Sound Harbeth Audio Ltd (YouTu... | |
| Which speakers to isolate first? @mvanwoert I would start with the subs. At first sight that might seem odd advice because it's known that our ears are far less sensitive to bass distortion than any found in the midrange. On the other hand in real world terms if you are likel... | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts @noske My take was that when auditioning and comparing loudspeakers it's important to have some technical data beforehand. Otherwise the anomalies of the human hearing system, which is basically always trying to make sense out of sound, can pla... | |
| christmas music Since the OP mentioned Josh Groban back in 2007, here he is with one of his best. A tremendous voice that would sound great anywhere, anytime. | |
| Audio Science Review = Rebuttal and Further Thoughts Oh dear, it would appear that measurements not only matter but are essential when judging loudspeakers. | |
| christmas music Many many versions of this song, but this one by Doris Day has those reach out and touch vocals. | |
| A perfect song? What are your choices? | |
| What's your favorite lyric from a song? Thunder Road Bruce Springsteen "Well, I got this guitar, and I learned how to make it talk And my car’s out back, if you’re ready to take that long walk From your front porch to my front seat The door’s open but the ride, it ain’t free" So... | |
| Music for 2022- Is It Just Me Or?.. @tylermunns There is no denying that current mainstream pop music is pure and utter trash. Anyone who says otherwise is lying or has no taste. There’s certainly no denying that it’s getting increasingly difficult to find current pop music ... | |
| History of NAD That's a high class video. I loved the history side of it more than the obvious self promotion. In fact I think I've still got an original NAD 3020 brochure as shown in the video. Every serious company ought to do something similar to illustra... | |
| Where does "MidFi" differ from "HiFi" or "LOFI"? @ronboco Interesting thread. I’d like to see what brands everyone thinks should go into each category. If we’re talking solely about performance then I’d say it’s a question of comparing a manufacturer’s entry products against their top of ... | |
| High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference? It's got to be a question of balancing all of the various unwanted resonances and speed inconsistencies. With this in mind I'd favour low mass designs although I have heard some fabulous high mass designs too. It would seem that Harley Lovegrove... | |
| Where does "MidFi" differ from "HiFi" or "LOFI"? @moonwatcher Nice post, especially for non musicians like myself. There never seems to be enough easy to digest information on musical frequencies. Where exactly does bass start, and what's the difference between bass at 60Hz and that at 40Hz? ... | |
| If there was only ONE album/cd/release you can listen to, over and over............. @clearthinker I've got a copy of the Gold CD but the 2003 Blonde on Blonde is quite good too. @richopp Better would be picking 12-14 individual songs to make one "album" of favs that would be more listenable over time. Yes, this is wha... | |
| If there was only ONE album/cd/release you can listen to, over and over............. Abbey Road - The Beatles, just slightly ahead of Astral Weeks. There's an awful lot going on in that album. |
