| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? Tbg, on that car? Avoid an automatic transmission, heh ;) | |
| Equalizers anyone? I don't believe in EQing to try and solve room problems--for what you'd spend on a good EQ you could just as well treat your rooms and get right to the real problem. EQs still won't correct for all the complex problems going on in a bad room. I'm ... | |
| Why even bother? I agree, many non-commercial radio stations don't compress very much at all. I volunteer (and had previously worked in management and production) at one and it was the same deal--we kept VERY little comp on the transmitter, and in fact have NO add... | |
