| Open baffle speakers @phillyb, Great take! I could not agree more. But first you’ve got to have an open mind. I’ve owned Electrostats for over 40 years. For years CLSiiz’s were my speakers of choice. I relished in their midrange which I believed was not matched by box... | |
| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital @richardbrand, being a fan of Classical you may relate to Wes Montgomery records from the 60’s. All of his stuff with producer Creed Taylor was done with string arrangements. Wes received criticism for abandoning his pure jazz roots, but these rec... | |
| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital @richardbrand, I didn’t mean it as an insult. We’re a similar age, that simply walked different paths. I enjoy Classical too. But my collection is mainly jazz and popular music from the 60’s, 70’s. Each of us had different influences. Wes Montgome... | |
| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital @lewm, not in the least. I know where jazz’ bread is buttered. But as bebop became dominant the majority of listeners were forever lost. I don’t mind, because bebop was a natural step for new jazz. Personally, bebop was a statement by certain musi... | |
| Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital Before there was a thing called Rock n Roll, there was jazz. At one time in America it was jazz that was the popular music of the younger generation. Who cares it got side tracked by a thing called bebop. The musicians desired, and deserved, to be... | |
| Open baffle speakers @mwatsme your system sounds fabulous, especially for such a narrow room. Well done! | |
| Open baffle speakers @bache Every speaker design has “issues.” You doubt OB’s, as if you’ve heard every OB. And yet here you are representing yourself as knowledgeable. Perhaps you’re filled with as many assumptions as knowledge? Personally, one thing I believe peopl... | |
| Open baffle speakers @toddalin That’s very interesting because a lot of classic jazz guitar amplifiers also use Alnico speakers. They’re some of the finest tones to be had from a jazz guitar amp, of course powered by tube amplification. | |
| Open baffle speakers Like box speakers, every OB is unique. People are referring to OB’s as if each is the same simply because they’re OB’s. I fail to understand the logic in that. Those I posted were each created by one custom builder. They’re not a speaker for ever... | |
| Open baffle speakers @mijostyn , well let’s see, I’m a jazz pianist and play jazz guitar fairly well, on top of being an audiophile for 50 plus years. Maybe you’re right, I have no idea about sound or music. | |
| Open baffle speakers @toddalin , sounding great! What speakers are those? | |
| Open baffle speakers @mijostyn, every speaker I’ve posted was an open baffle speaker. The problem is I’ve heard each speaker in small rooms, mid sized rooms, and large rooms. Each speaker performed like no other. The disadvantage you have is, you haven’t heard these s... | |
