| Very Sensible Audio Advice What I like about this guy is that, at least based on what I’ve seen, he doesn’t lock himself into a "religion." It’s almost like totally partisan politics which seems, to my recollection to have begun in the W. era, in which literally everything ... | |
| Very Sensible Audio Advice I would never have thought he would go for products like Heed and Totem, but he seems to have a good ear for sound. IMO, his advice is better than a lot of the stuff thrown around here. | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? Actually, I was listening to some Ed Sheeran YouTube videos while I was writing out some checks yesterday (yes, I still write a couple of checks each month to companies that don't let you put it on Amex) and he's not bad at all. Nice songs, good ... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? Actually, this thread is interesting from an academic point of view in that, in my original post, I never said or even implied that one form or era of music was better than another. I merely made the, what I considered to be factual, observation,... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? @simao - I understand what you’re saying, but, as a musician, I think you would agree that every era of music had what may be called, for lack of a better word, a "zenith". The Baroque had Bach, the Classical had Mozart and Beethoven, the romantic... | |
| How thick should the front baffle of speakers be? The 3/4" plywood used in the vintage JBLs probably did vibrate, but in a way that was pleasant to the ear. For me, I am not particularly partial to speakers with heavy cabinets, but that's probably more to do with the overall design than the cabi... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? @Whart - I think maybe one needs to actually be a musician to realize the contribution the rock musicians of the 60's and 70's, i.e, Page, Hendrix et al, made to the music coming later. But again, the discussion sort of morphed from a discussion ... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? Actually, this thread wasn’t meant to be about all modern music, despite its somewhat inaccurate title. It was primarily aimed at the WKTU and equivalent radio stations’ playlists, which consist of exactly none of the artists mention on Kennovac’s... | |
| Harbeth M30.1+Luxman LX-380 & Audio Note AN-E/SPe Oto SE Sig I think you should listen to the Harbeth SHL5 before making a decision. For the life of me, I cannot understand why the Monitor 30s are so venerated. I've owned both and, in my room at least, the SHL5s were fuller, bigger-sounding and generally ... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? @asp307 "I hope I never become an old guy waxing nostalgia about Kurt Cobain (and the like) to anyone who will listen...my worst nightmare... "_________________________________________Bite your tongue my young friend. There are nightmares out the... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? After further deliberation on the subject, I think my final thought on this (and that's only because I don't feel like thinking about it anymore) is that, IMO, the "top 40" of the 60s and 70's was more varied in nature than the current music being... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? No, not really. I accept the world as it is. Reality is the reality. Not what I think. Regardless of the outcome of this discussion, I still think it is infinitely more interesting and relevant than whether expensive wire is better than cheap wire... | |
| Why does all new pop music sound the same? I respect the opinions and I realize the validity of those who say we think all new music sounds the same because we are "OLD", as if that is a condition, which it probably is. But, anyone with actual ears knows that Zeppelin did not sound like SL... | |
| shrink wrap film residue- how to remove Just don't drink it straight. It can kill you. But Everclear is cool to have around the house for cleaning and disinfecting. It's probably about the purest alcohol you can buy without getting into laboratory stuff. And you CAN mix it with frui... | |
| Worth buying a Solution 541? Without a complete demo, you're just stabbing around in the dark, which you shouldn't have to do at the prices you're paying. Be patient, wait for the new unit to come in and have a nice listening session. When you buy from a dealer, part of the... |
