The sound quality from DACs - is it all the same? It amazes me that a post about whether all DAC’s sound the same would be a four page thread. I posted on recommended mono vinyl and I think I got eight responses. Maybe I should start a thread on whether warped records sound the same as flat recor... | |
Best Rock Drummers Always thought Kenny Jones was a better drummer than Keith Moon, just not for The Who. But aside from 'Quadrophenia' and 'Live at Leeds' I couldn't care the least about The Who. Faces on the other hand, the best thing Rod Stewart ever did and Kenn... | |
Headphones Newbie; Senheisser HD 800s or Focal MG Clear @viablex1 Yeah, when the time comes, I'm going to make a request that my dealer have a demo pair to listen to before I purchase them. | |

Headphones Newbie; Senheisser HD 800s or Focal MG Clear @ghdprentice I’m fine, a sore knee and neck but nothing serious, thank you. Unfortunately, I am without a headphone amp and I’m reliant on the plug input on the front of my amplifier. However, I may enjoy good results regardless. If the Focal Cle... | |
Best Rock Drummers Keith Carlock is also a jazz drummer who plays rock. Or rather a drummer who plays whatever he must. My favorite bands with him is with Wayne Krantz on guitar. | |
Headphones Newbie; Senheisser HD 800s or Focal MG Clear @ghdprentice I have a highly thought of amp but still I'm under the impression that certain headphones/speakers match better than others and I can only afford one pair of headphones. But yesterday my car was totaled from a hit and run accident so ... | |
Headphones Newbie; Senheisser HD 800s or Focal MG Clear @yage I wanted to get away from planar headphones as I have Quad Electrostatic Speakers and wanted something different. | |
Headphones Newbie; Senheisser HD 800s or Focal MG Clear @viablex1 Could you explain what sounded objectionable. Were you using a preamp, headphone amp, etc...? | |
Best Rock Drummers I started drum lessons at 5 years old in 1967. My parents bought me a set in 1968. I played up through college then gave it up. I liked Jazz more than Rock. My influences were Philly Jo Jones, Art Taylor, Paul Motian and lately Joey Baron. I shou... | |
Best Rock Drummers No one mentioned Pierre Moerlein! | |
Best Rock Drummers Dallas Taylor is underrated. I saw him with CSN and he was very impressive. That being said, the best depends on what you're trying to achieve. If you need a studio drummer and want a platinum or gold record, Gary Chester is a very good choice. Ha... | |
Headphones Newbie; Senheisser HD 800s or Focal MG Clear Here's the technical data for my amp but I'm not sure where the headphone plug fits into this; Technical data (according to manufacturer): Output power: 2 x 250W/8Ω, 2 x 450W/4Ω, 2 x 800W/2Ω Total harmonic distortion: <0,02% S/N ratio: >90d... | |
Headphones Newbie; Senheisser HD 800s or Focal MG Clear I’m sorry for not mentioning this but I am looking for a pair of open backed headphones. My understanding of the differences between the two may be mistaken but when I’ve had the chance to hear headphones at the dealer, I’ve preferred the open to ... | |
Headphones Newbie; Senheisser HD 800s or Focal MG Clear @larsman I've read a few reviews on the Focal Clear MG's and it seems like they've really made improvements over the original Clear's, one being detail. One thing I'm really wondering about the Focal's is whether or not the treble frequencies can ... |
