| Are you troubled by the imaging of a symphony orchestra? Good post by Brownsfan šmglik, you may find this interesting (scroll down a bit):https://andrewhugill.com/OrchestraManual/seating.html | |
| Are you troubled by the imaging of a symphony orchestra? mglik, something for you to consider that hasnāt been mentioned. Have you attended concerts by different orchestras and not mostly just one? I ask because not all orchestras arrange the strings with all violins hard left and violas, cello and bass... | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound Itās not easy communicating exactly what is meant with the written word. In classic fashion for an Internet forum we end up ātalkingā past each other, making inaccurate assumptions about what is meant by someone else and digging our heels in when ... | |
| Are you troubled by the imaging of a symphony orchestra? No.As far as the āproblemā that you describe, the vast majority of my Decca, EMI, Lyrita, RCA LS, Mercury LP, and some others have no problem placing strings in their traditional places on the soundstage.Ā | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound Of course it is for oneās enjoyment. Who said otherwise? What some if you guys miss is the fact that, for some, when the reproduced sound gets as close as possible to the sound of real that is, in fact, when there is the most enjoyment. Enjoy your... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Thanks. Ā Good response. Ā Although, no need to hesitate. | |

| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound Boy, how times have changed! Ā AKA, āIām showing my ageā. š Happy listening, all. | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound Like I said, different strokes for different folks. If you have spent any significant amount of time listening to the recordings of Kenneth Wilkinson, for instance, it is obvious that the man had a very good sense of what āliveā sounds like. Probl... | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound **** Indeed I do but that is about .01% of the type of music I listen to, so why use that as a standard? ****No one is saying that you have to use anyone elseās standard. Everyone is free to enjoy his favorite music in their own way. However, I ca... | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound Excluding your last sentence, which will thankfully not be applicable for too much longer, what you correctly point out is the reason that unamplified acoustic performances remain the standard for judging how close our systems get to the sound of ... | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound Good post, Inna,I have zero interest in judging how anyone listens to music; and, that includes the kind of sound that they want from their sound systems. If a āpersonalizedā sound pleases someone, so be it. However, it is obvious to me that some ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw, the graphics of Wayneās graphic novel are fantastic; the novel, pretty ordinary IMO and not much of it. Ā The art work is really great. Ā An interesting companion to the music, but his writing skills are nowhere near the level of his musical sk... |
