| 1st time buyer: Paradigm vs Revel vs B&W vs ? What about the SVS Ultra Towers. Well reviewed and they seem to have a generous trial period and free shipping both ways if you don't like them. Just another option. | |
| Building an audio room - 12x22 - electrical plan? Pay particular attention to the construction phase for quality work. If you can stagger the studs with any common walls that would help with sound isolation. Also seal any air gaps with acoustic calk such as baseboards, outlets etc. Sound will tra... | |
| How do you organize your LPs? I have used three to four groupings. Rock, Jazz, Classical, Country/folk. I then sort alphabetical and then chronological. | |
| LOUSY SOUND AT LIVE CONCERTS It's sad state of affairs for larger venues. I always get a nervous feeling when the sound engineers don't even touch the board controls....usually bad sound. I search out smaller venues such as older theaters or concert halls or some outdoor conc... | |
| Raidho D1/C1.1 vs Dynaudio C1 vs Magico Q1 Apdoc2004 I also live near Seattle and will need to jump on a jet to the east coast to demo my next speakers. It's a sad situation when we don't have the dealers with the higher end equipment I'm interested in. | |
| Rockport Atria? Jeff Fritz did a piece on speakers he would buy and these made his list. This is one of the four speakers I'm considering.http://www.ultraaudio.com/index.php/features-menu/opinion-menu/384-what-i-d-buy-loudspeakers-over-15-000 | |
| Why does most new music suck? Toddnkaya I did check out your suggestions and didn't find anything that did it for me. Hey that's OK, so I will just continue to listen. | |
| Why does most new music suck? There is a basic formula for excellent music....good songwriting + talent + engineering / production. If you miss any one of the elements, the music suffers. | |
| Why does most new music suck? Actusreus I have been searching for some great new popular music (rock, pop) and as I stated in my earlier post I am wating for the list....last 5 or 10 years anyone? Thanks for your posts! | |
| Why does most new music suck? Actusreus I made a comment in the original post about the poor recordings being put out today. As an example I was listening to the new Pink CD and the cymbals just about sawed off my ears with a compressed, distorted sound. The engineer and produ... | |
| Clear Day cables vs. Morrow Audio Cables I did a demo of the Clear day double shotguns against my current Acoustic Zen Satori's. They were both very similar in my system so I stuck with the the Satori's. | |
| Why does most new music suck? Mapman, love the Muse tune...all the "classic" rock elements. Toddnkaya, I have also gone down the alt country, folk path for some really good finds. Ben Howard is also on my "doesn't suck" list. Very talented! | |
| Why does most new music suck? I think I have read every post on this thread and I must say that the conversation has been very interesting. Yes I am what many consider an old foggy (60) and I started playing music at 8 years old (fiddle), then guitars, then I found girls and c... | |
| Why does most new music suck? Frogman,Hmmm....compressed sound, poor lyrics and electronic drivel = pop music that sucks. Thanks for the Smithonian post. | |
| Why does most new music suck? After reading the posts a couple of thoughts come to mind. During my youth there was also Rock/Pop music that I didn't like but I would always have my go to groups. It seems like there was lot more "go to" groups. I also think that I am less tolar... |
