| Low Sensitivity Speakers Compression Issue. alexberger,All those links worked for me. I do not know if there are some "requirements" in design of such speakers. Of course, talking strictly about sound, there may be a lot of discussion. However, it is also understandable if majority of peopl... | |
| Low Sensitivity Speakers Compression Issue. Can someone mention a few models of these two classes of speakers discussed here?

| Ingress Audio Engineering "Pop quiz Can anyone think of a reason roller bearings might not be a good idea under a turntable?"It would roll of the shelf.What prize did I win? | |
| "You cannot handle the truth" "...but I don’t count those sessions. That’s just background music."I count even those moments. My system is used for that 95% of the time. Plays music whenever I remember to turn it on, but I have no real interest in sitting in front of it for ex... | |
| "You cannot handle the truth" "Would you please elaborate a little more? 70 hours …"I bought a little portable player a few months ago. I use it more often than I expected, novelty of the new I guess, and it is at 170 hours or so. I was surprised when I checked it, I thought i... | |

| What a sad world we now live in....... "Most music made today imo sucks!"I can sign under this sentence, but many people who are as old now as I was when I started liking what I still like, would be baffled. They like music made today much more than music made yesterday. Their kids wil... | |
| What a sad world we now live in....... audioguy85,"I like looking at my collection and reading the cd inserts and the album covers 😁. Oh well I’m old hahahaha..."You are not that old, if you can still happily read CD inserts. Those letters are getting smaller by the year. | |
| What a sad world we now live in....... bdp24,I think that all you mentioned together is the reason for CD sales decline. Probably with another thing or two. Times have evolved and, regardless of what anyone (hinting at your mention of Michael Fremer) feels and thinks, CDs and records d... | |

| What a sad world we now live in....... "I don’t think Walmart customers were ever exactly the most music-loving people around. Or perhaps it is that they, like myself, are just not interested in the music that is currently most popular."I would bet that many, if not majority, of the Ke... | |
| "You cannot handle the truth" Mix of what n80 and gents said.Sometimes people just do not like something as much as they thought they would. No need to keep it. | |
| Bought some `Vintage Gear` noromance,Your system looks really interesting. I think I would feel odd ever putting a new record on it. It might feel out of place, If you have a collection of old records, you essentially have an audio time machine of sorts. | |
