| Very Sensible Audio Advice Yes, I've seen that clip recently and thought the same thing. Often there's no real substitute for experience (at least if you're as hard-headed as I am), but it's all solid advice that should be more widespread. | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano Thanks for the confirmation Schubert. The triple whammy of OB, active crossovers and good conditioning is the only thing I've yet witnessed to **completely obliterate** the problem of descending piano chords, for example...somehow or other they ot... | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano I don't really know if anyone has already suggested this since I have not gone through the entire thread, but I'd say that for the best piano reproduction, especially through the lower registers, you'd be much better off looking at something Open ... | |

| Done, really done! Zavato, glad you got things to that point. You are right, it's a great place to be! And while the journey is definitely important in its own way, I have to say that final destination counts for a helluva lot! ;) Usually to get there is more a matt... | |

From the standpoint of room modes they're less picky about placement, but they do need room to breathe away from the front wall of course, like 3-5ft out into the room. Corner loading is not particularly necessary normally, but corner loaded desig... | |
| Open Baffle. Why are they mostly limited to DIY? I love OB, but I did find most things, like the Emerald Physics line for example, to be way too expensive and relatively not-so-well implemented for my tastes. So I eventually moved into DIY. I'm currently still building a pair based on Danny Ritc... | |
| Musical Foot in Mouth What happens when you drop a piano down a mine shaft also describes the musical performance of Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto #2 when performed by Ween. | |
| Lowering the noise floor Thanks for the explanation."...eliminating ANY type of Noise or Distortion would be a good thing, right?" Most certainly sir. | |
| Lowering the noise floor I've never actually tried that, but it may be 'somewhat' worthwhile to at least look at I think. There is less noise with batteries, but from what I've gathered it never totally goes away. But, you could expect rather good results with all except ... | |
| Lowering the noise floor I think I understand what you’re saying with the magnetic type noise (mu metal, yes??) and also the minimized player. It’s the "...all RFI/EMI type produced or carried by the house AC, cables, fuses, power cords..." part that’s confusing me...not ... | |
| Lowering the noise floor If it Is a battery powered headphone setup we’re talking about, then except for cost and audio nervosa, I’d say that you have not **completely** (to use your word) avoided all the noise issues. There is the noise from the components themselves at ... | |
| Lowering the noise floor What, you mean you've avoided all that by going cryo?? Not sure I get the drift here...forgive me if I'm a little slow today...battery powered headphone set up?? |
