| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused Oddioboy You seem very interesting, that was a more insightful post than you may realize. LA is about keeping your job and making your clients happy, eclectic mastering labs are great if you can hold up your end and put out great work. But master... | |
| Tube amps and a Stradivarius Triodes are more linear than transistors, which can also make them sound more realistic than solid state Do you have any articles to back this up, everyone would agree tube sound is more pleasent but any info looking at input and output through a... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused moonwatcher Well, I guess a good engineer could put drivers and an amp inside a concrete block that weighs about 300 pounds. Doubt it would sell very well. And Vibration dampening systems ARE important under turntables at the very least, regar... | |
| Tube amps and a Stradivarius Also if you think tube amps are more accurate you are simply fooling yourself. I use tube amps (hybrid) in my 2 Channel system but I know they are not more accurate they sound better and more musical than SS amps but the audiophile community needs... | |
| Tube amps and a Stradivarius Do you want the sound to be accurate or sound cool. There are objective engineering philosophies that clash between flat and good when it comes to sound. The best answer to me is to have the goal of putting the musician in your listening room play... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused brianlucey Thanks for the article I really enjoyed it. As I was reading your equipment list I thought wow how can you time align all those eclectic parts then you mentioned the Trinnov, very good choice. Interesting to hear you are combining tube ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @brianlucey Oops I guess you didn't work with Pink Floyd I misread your post. Their team to me may be some of the greatest music mixers ever. You definitely need lots of speaker to mix Dolby Atmos you can do 5.1 but 7.1.4 is probably best. It ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @brianlucey Super cool you worked with Pink Floyd, so much creative engineering on those albums. I really didn’t mean to brag about budget I just meant I didn’t worry about the money and I could have gotten more expensive monitors but my room is ... | |
| Tube amps and a Stradivarius The Neumann U 87 is still one of the greatest vocal microphones ever (tube). Records have a warm rich rumble that sounds great. Vocals don't have warm and rich rumble. Tubes are a physical effect mechanism that have nothing to do with accuracy. ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused Very nice. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused kota1 I've worked with wireless mics in film for many years, the cost of a single transmitter and receiver is about $4000 for the best units (Zaxcom). Knowing this price range means that there is no way KEF can put a state of the art wireless ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused steakster Ok I did overreact I shouldn't have taken your note so personal. I apologize for my reaction. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused tkhill I’m not sure if you were talking about me but I’ll answer. The reason I started this post was because it seems like many of the people on Audiogon are searching for magical sessions with music. As technology gets better the closer we’ll ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused kota1 I have a fireplace where the cc tweeter should be and because that stupid stand was almost $1000 I had to use it. I did aim the tweeter to hit me at my listening position, I was very careful with the measurements very good note. If you do a... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused kota1 Ok my room is in, hope you like it. I love sound but I'm not the most experienced audiophile. Working on it. Thanks Have a great Thanksgiving! |
