| Sigur Ros - Best Recordings? You can get some sigur ros and jonsi's solo official studio masters (hires) for around 10 bucks each. Botching it on vinyl plastic and paying 40 to 60 bucks a pop doesn't look like a great idea a.k.a if you are not medium agnostic, you shall be d... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes Richard, i wasn’t just referring to individual instruments like a huge organ that went infrasonic on its own. I was referring to the same ’interference’ (if we need to use a word) effect that happens on the supertweeting end also occurs on the in... | |
| Bass management--high/low pass filtering A minidsp SHD (not the best quality perhaps, but your mileage may vary) can be used as a streamer with bass management, if you intend to keep the modwright in the chain. They also have other models in their product list. For a more polished/ turn... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes If some tweeter (super or not so super) played a 29khz tone and a 30khz tone simultaneously, you will hear it as a 1khz tone (doppler whatever), well within your audible range...no matter if your ear doctor told you that your ears don’t work afte... | |
| Will Open Baffle Speakers Approach the Speed and Dynamics of Horns? Higher end horns ( pro, pro leaning audiophile stuff, etc) tend to mop the floor with this 'open baffle' speaker fad. | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes The primary goal of streaming/rental music services should be for discovering new artists/music. If you like the album, buy it and pay the artist...not to mention permanent ownership. If it’s only available in redbook CD, so be it... If there i... | |
| Best DAC you ever heard list. 1.Budget under 1k 2. Mid Under 5k 3. Cost no Object. Under 20k: Schiit Above 20k: Aavik [Audiophiles will have plenty of other bottlenecks starting with their ears, room resolution, speakers, etc before any 'cost no object' dac gets justified.] | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Or the other doofus who’s singing "Move bch, get out the way...get out the way bch, get out the way" Well, as you can see fellas, there’s a bch in his way...and she needs to move (apparently). | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Probably....some twangy doofus singing about the pack of smokes he got from quikshop after some gal broke his heart into a million different pieces...not to mention all his cousins who follow the same formula in the music biz. The twang makes me ... | |
| Is it possible to find a good DAC for under $50, 000? If you don’t get this bottle of Remy Martin for 150k and wake up with a hangover the next day....you haven’t really lived. (I would have definitely spat in the barrel to make it real special...if i had worked at Remy Moomoo a 100 years ago, somet... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes On the same note, buy a hires official studio master from qobuz, burn it on bluray disc and play it with your bluray transport....almost always/definitively sounds better than streaming the same album directly from qobuz or tidal...couldn’t be sur... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes I highly doubt bluray players/transports for blu-ray audio are going obsolete any time soon... Panasonic is bound to keep it alive...Sony playstation consoles will be around forever...thanks to the ever growing number of gamer dudes. In fact, i b... | |
| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? It is best to stay away from lousy speakers with serious design flaws in the first place....one can only put so much lipstick on a reeking pig. I wonder why a crossover mod/upgrade to improve resolution, clarity, etc is the end of the world to so... | |
| Recommendations for a new subwoofer? I used to feel that way....but, after running back and forth between the seat and different subs 1500 times, I seem to be ok with apps. I hate controlling subwoofer via dsp via wi-Fi on your smart phone. Leave the damn dials on the back of the s... | |
| Recommendations for a new subwoofer? "Room shaking" is a wrong accusation received by low extension subs too many times. High fidelity infrasonic bass extension for music has nothing to do with room shaking. Perhaps, the ’room shaking’ notion comes from the extreme hometheater dudes ... |
