| What to do with bad recorded CDs Agree with Oregon Papa, degaussing is a good idea, so is ionizing the CD, so is degaussing the interconnects. In fact, can I say that almost all CDs are well recorded, it's just that there are a great number of problems in the playing of the CDs t... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution Nobody is suggesting that air molecules are charged at very high frequencies. They do however resonate when immersed in a very high frequency field of the correct frequency. That's how the molecules get jump started, I.e., moving. You can charge t... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution Just to add that I'm not sure if the SteinMusic Harmonizer works similarly in principle to the Ultras but it might. The Harmonizer - at least according to what I've read - operates by "energizing" the air molecules in the room so that when the aco... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution Ooops a daisy, I meant the over GHz frequency. | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution The Ultras of course work quantum mechanically. Yes, I know you were afraid I was going to say that. Hence the over MHz fequency. The Ultras condition the air molecules and make the acoustic waves propagate more efficiently through the air, like a... | |
| Rolling Stones Tour 2015 While on a roll (:-)) I ran across the song list for the Stones tour. The highlights are:Let's Spend the Afternoon TogetherGrandmother's Little HelperGimme Homeless ShelterStart My Pacemaker UpHave You Seen Your Grandmother, Standing in the Shadow... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution I understand Ultra Tweeters are still available. They produce only very high frequencies, just over 1 GHz. I used to have the Ultras in my system and even had the Deluxe Ultras in the same system. | |
| Rolling Stones Tour 2015 There's also the tricky issue of handling all the walkers, oxygen tanks and colostomy kits as well as rounding up babysitters for the grandkids. | |
| the most underrated 33 1/3 in history? Mickey Katz? Wasn't he one of The Monkeys? | |
| BI WIRE EXPERIENCE DARK SIDE The current is alternating, not the music. Hel-loo! It's the signal that's going to the speakers you have to worry about, anyway, not the one going in the opposite direction. Duh! | |
| Rolling Stones Tour 2015 Yup, '66, just like Rte. 66. Here's the tour dates and locations.http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rolling_Stones_American_Tour_1966 | |
| Does HiRez really sound better? I have some (compressed) CDs that are at least 3 times louder than the average (uncompressed) CD. Example: Radiohead Amnesiac. That's not "slightly louder." Hel-loo! | |
| Rolling Stones Tour 2015 Whoops, it was the Standells. Dirty Water. | |
| Phasing out of Compact Disc Talk on the street? You're kidding, right? Did you speak to the man under the bridge? | |
| Does HiRez really sound better? I didn't say ALL CDs are compressed. But the trend is not your friend. And at least for me dynamics is VERY important. If it ain't got that swing it don't mean a thing. Music when you cut away all the jibber jabber is all about dynamics and microd... |
