| How can we settle for digital? PS- Mr. Feil - Don't take my previous post too seriously. Just verbal sparring in good fun. Regarding my post questioning the 3000 plays, it was meant to be a challenge to your assertion, but not an attack on your character. To me, 3000 plays seem... | |
| How can we settle for digital? AFile - I'm glad you've enjoyed listening to the same records every week for 50 years. Most of us like a bit more variety than that, but I suppose if I didn't listen to anything made after 1958, I wouldn't be too interested in digital either. | |
| How can we settle for digital? >>I have some albums with over 3,000 playings that are just as quiet as your discs.Does this mean you've listened to some albums every other day for the past 17 years? Or twice a week for the past 30 years? | |

| auditioning sessions vs. listening sessions Blindjim - I know exactly what you mean about the tubes. I'm the same way. I never know how much hum I'm going to get when I turn on my system. Even worse is vinyl. I've had ground problems with my old TT that send a very loud 60Hz through the sys... | |

I didn't realize most recent recordings were recordede at hiogher data rates, and wasn't aware of the ultra-high data rates mentioned by Johnny B. Does this also apply to the pop / rock (i.e. U2) recordings I hear are bei... | |
| Atma-Sphere MA-1 amps Detlof - I sawinanother post you were trying out someVTL Seigfreids. How do they compare / contrast to your Atma-Spheres? | |
| auditioning sessions vs. listening sessions Yes, they are completely separate things. I call one listening to the stereo, the other listening to music. I find it best to decide beforehand which I am going to do. I try not to use favorite music for listening to the stereo, so I don't get sic... | |
| Led Zeppelin Mothership ...he did a better job with the cd version...it doesn't sound as good as the lp version...I don't get it- which is better? | |
| what do you do now? What? Is FM going all digital now, too? This is ridiculous!! How much will it cost to retrofit our cars?? I had XM satellite for 3 months and it stunk!! Go under a bridge or other obstruction, the radio goes dead, and takes 5 seconds to relock on.... | |
| Atma-Sphere MA-1 amps Seeing how I got all these Atma owners in one place, what sort of power conditioning (if any) are people using with them? I've been considering Shunyata. I'm mainly concerned w/ lightning protection, and if I can get an improvememnt in sound, grea... | |
| Diffraction be gone Spicas, famous for their imaging, used thick felt pads on the baffles oftheir speakers. Same w/ Dunlavy,I think. | |
| Spilled marinara sauce on wood speaker.... Why not rub sauce all over the speakers to even it out? | |
| Another Crazy Audiophile If you put it on a surface with your bubble levels, howdo they compare? | |
