| Regarding Quoting someone on the forums I've had that question about the @ symbol, too. | |
| Dynaudio Heritage Special or Gershman Studio 2?? I'm sorry I don't have a direct answer to your comparison question, but I'm curious what brands you have available, locally, to audition? Are you in Denmark? I know that Amphion is a decent Finnish company and that Harbeth sells in Scandinavia. (H... | |
| Music is sound, sound can be music @frogman I see better now. Thanks for the clarification. I think it puts you, me, and Putnam much closer together than I realized. I followed Putnam's career and wrote a book in which he featured. In the end, he attacks relativism, but it is such ... | |
| Millercarbon's Mega Moab Mod Meander Hope you can make the speakers sound better! Look forward to hearing how they improve! | |
| Music is sound, sound can be music @frogman Yes, progress indeed! You chose a great sentence: "What is wrong with the notion of objects existing “independently” of conceptual schemes is that there are no standards for the use of even the logical notions apart from conceptual choice... | |
| The Sound of Speaker. I see you're trying to get at categories of sound that go with categories of speaker. This is an overgeneralization, but it's not completely wrong. My experience of listening to box speakers vs. electrostatics vs. those incorporating AMT ribbons v... | |
| What happened to the "What do you consider Rap and Hip Hop masterpieces?" thread? Gil Scot Heron, "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised." | |
| Music is sound, sound can be music @frogman I agree to disagree about relativism. Relativism is a rather complicated topic, and it’s very time consuming merely to define terms. I doubt we’ll make much progress here, and there’s a lot written already. It's deep water, so put your fl... | |
| Music is sound, sound can be music The relativism is not avoidable, but it need not be a lowering of standards. All absolutes are conventionally described, defined, and either hewed to or overturned. | |
| Do Banana Plug Adaptors Degrade SQ? Maybe not.But in case a one or two word answer isn't helpful (hint: it isn't), here's a deeper dive: https://youtu.be/HphbTOHtH8o | |
| So Hard to Decide on an Amp OP, to add on to what others have said -- I want to second the idea that a sub might be a good idea. I auditioned the ML Motion 60s and their bass was fantastic, but the Motions could probably use a sub. You might reach out to Martin Logan for the... | |
| Music is sound, sound can be music OP, enjoyed your post.The fundamental point, for me, is a pragmatic one. Things are what we need or want them to be. All definitions depend on usefulness. If I need to throw out some trash, that cylinder over there is a "trash can."If I need to ch... | |
| So Hard to Decide on an Amp The warnings here about synergy are very valid. I’m presently trying out a Van Alstine SET 400. It is well made with a lot of power. There’s a 30 day trial for his amps; you might consider a SET 120 for those speakers. I like buying from small mak... | |
| transistor pre with the sound of tubes There's nothing to fear -- really -- with a tube preamp. A tube goes bad? You change it. If you can change a light bulb, this is within your skill set.Do. It. | |
| Why is science just a starting point and not an end point? Why am I not surprised nobody gets it???! Good question for your therapist. |
