| How close to the real thing? I am a VERY new member to the BAS and I am NOT speaking for them at all! I simply asked a couple of their members the same question that is being posed here for their opinion just as I asked my musician friend for his opinion.Happy New Year Irv!Ed | |
| How close to the real thing? Mr. Ayer-I assume that you forgot all about listening to Holly Cole - "Don't Smoke In Bed" -on your system. I listened to the entire album but that was when your system was a year or two older so I guess that I haven't heard a "great recording on ... | |
| How close to the real thing? Actually, I don't remember anyone saying that an entire recording sounded real and, if so, based on my own experience (and it has been a few years ((as Mr. Ayer points out)) since I worked in the loudspeaker shop that made the loudspeakers for Bob... | |
| How close to the real thing? Here's a thought and why my friend, the trained concert violist, said that 5%, nay1% is MUCH too high a percentage: From the posts that claim that the music sounded real (albeit from memory as I will not be rereading all of the posts!) I recall th... | |
| How close to the real thing? 5%, fwiw, is seemingly extraordinarily generous - at least to the ears of a trained violist and, at least according to him. In a later part of the same conversation I asked him if he thought that it were possible to reproduce "even 5%" of the mus... | |

| How close to the real thing? Peterayer:Yeah, and if you still have the piano in the same room as your stereo system I'll slide the cover off the keyboard, play a single note and say: "Gosh was I being generous when I said 5%!"Edseas2 | |
| How close to the real thing? Yeah Physics Genius , I know that physics has changed a lot since 2002. | |
| How close to the real thing? Bob Katz and Pop Music - you're kidding right?Ever hear of Chesky Records?The notion that we don't have the ability to "reproduce "live" music" is taken out of context?Guess you didn't read the OP's original question.Sounds par for the course with... | |
| How close to the real thing? To Peterayer -You won't like this citation much from Bob Katz - for anyone who doesn't know who he is he's one of the best recording engineers alive today - here's a link to his bio:http://www.digido.com/images/00495-Bob_Katz_Bio.pdfAs Peter shoul... | |
| How close to the real thing? Somewhere in the miasma of the OP's question is another beguiling paradox, namely:What percent of the time has live, unamplified music ever been mistaken by anyone as being other than "real"?If the answer to this question is close to "zero" (as in... | |
