| What artists can you not get enough of? Don't over look Lizzy Hale as one of todays hardest hitting vocals. She can pound it out! | |
| What artists can you not get enough of? @skyscraper #1 Band Maid Have followed them for a while. Incredible hard driving sound. Love it. THIS makes me want to turn it up louder!! Also listen to Zepperella, a Zepplin tribute band. Great guitar work from the grand master of rock, Jimmy ... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? @davetheoilguy +1 here. Never understood how he is famous. He was a great performer with alot of energy into his performance. His guitar was mostly used as a prop to sell the image. The selling point was his message was to an audience of mo... | |
| Does loudness play a part in your appreciation? Around 70/75db seems to be a sweet spot. Appropriatley loud for most music. The lower it is the less resolution. Turning down the volume knob is like stepping down on the brake pedal. Less of everything. Low level listening is ok for background l... | |

| How to choose speakers that won't overpower your room? Small room = small speakers Big room = big speakers A 12 x 11 room with big floor standers is a miss match. Plus you listen at "fairly low volume" levels so there's no need for adding bigger/more. All speakers have a level of volume they requir... | |

| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Bruce Springsteen. He can't sing and he can't play guitar either. I know, I know everyone loves him. I can't even consider him as a vocalist. Horrible. | |
| Jay's Audio Lab Visits GR Research's Listening Room It seemed to me that Jay was polite but not blown away. The expectation of such a large, grand system could be a tall order (no pun intended). The music selection on the video didn't seem to match the dynamic capability. Not exciting music. If th... | |
| Using non-terminated speaker wire? Bare wire, Straight strand not twisted in a good tight compressed lug. | |
| Did I Expect too much? Companies like PS Audio can give better value for the money spent by selling direct to the customer. They benifit by getting a higher price but the customer also benefits by not paying for the middleman/distributor mark ups. A win/win | |
| Cheap crimp connection vs. Solder Crimps are excellent in the right application. In areas of high vibration or items that need frequent replacement. Auto, aircraft even NASA uses crimps. AC panel also has temperature change and frequent replacement installation. Perfect for press... | |
| A Simple Pleasure: Sharing the joy @mapman Be aware that you must go into 'settings' in the Qobuz app and manually change the setting in order to recieve the higher resolution. Otherwise it will remain at lower MP3 setting. | |
| A Simple Pleasure: Sharing the joy I do a similar thing. I use the Qobuz app available on Samsung smart TV. (plays at 16/44 resolution) Quite good enough. Shows the list of what's playing. Seeing the album on the screen is a bit more involving especially at dinner parties. People ... |
