| I am sick of cables I'm just polishing up the re-write. Eastwood has an option on it and we're in negotitions for a final number. Working title is currently "The Autogonian". | |
| I am sick of cables ...And with their irons holstered the two strangers rode separate ways as the sun set like a sliced cantalope on the horizon. Grown men bowed their heads and removed their hats as each of the gunslingers passed, one heading east, the other towards... | |
| WAV or Apple Lossless Encoder? I don't think it was the use of the adjective, "much," but the use of the word "not". Your post implied the compression was not significant. I'd suggest cutting the file size by almost half IS significant compression, especially given that you los... | |
| WAV or Apple Lossless Encoder? Usarmyvet91 - I think what Brian may have been pointing out was that it saves a significant amount of space (correct me if I'm wrong Brian). You had stated that it "does not compress audio much" which also puzzled me since saving almost half the s... | |
| WAV or Apple Lossless Encoder? However i have found that wav sounds better on some transfers. When you do go with wav its harder to get the art work. Have you tried doing a blind test on those files you think sound better. I wonder how much our brains play tricks on us when we... | |
| Should I mod my original MHDTParadisea or uprade Hmmmm, I assume 4est that you are talking about tube rolling in the Paradisea(?). I'm not familiar with the Monica but I do have a Paradisea and have done some rolling there myself. I can definitely agree that the tube will make a difference, but ... | |
| What components are manufactured in the U.S.A.? Hey Ellery - good to see you here again! Where are you these days? Sorry I missed you when you came through Seattle...did you end up staying...or?Here's a few more to add to Rushton's excellent list:Quicksilver AudioModwrightWright Sound (no relat... | |
| whats the finest recorded cd you've heard? McCondo - Thanks again for the input. FWIW "FatMax" is a group of tools offered by Stanley (CST/Berger), and not an actual product. I use several FatMax products. One of the laser levels I use is this FatMax laser. Is that the type of laser you've... | |
| whats the finest recorded cd you've heard? Mcondo - Thanks for the input. That book's been mentioned in a few threads - did you think it's worth the purchase price? I'll give the laser positioning a try. I have various laser levels as I do a lot of construction work these days. I wouldn't ... | |
| whats the finest recorded cd you've heard? Amused to Death,though certainly worth a listen, is more of a novelty to me. It would not occur to me as a very natural representation of - more of a WOW-factor; an imitation of surroundisound with only two speakers. It is recorded in Qsound (yes,... | |
| Ear Protection I wear ear protection regularly when needed. I've ridden motorcycles for over 25 years. If you haven't ridden you may not realize the level of noise caused by the wind rushing past your head and through the helmet at 60mph is quite loud. For the p... | |
| If i share libraries in itunes is it same quality? With my slimdevices Transporter and squeezebox there is a consensus that wireless is better than the hard-wire connections i have been using.Hmmm, I've heard the opposite, at least with the Transporter. I've read that ethernet is the superior conn... | |
| Looking for some 'grass Jax2, I'm a big fan of all of your suggestions, but there's very little bluegrass in those selections.I guess I have to check out some of your selections then, as that's as close as I can come. Yeah, I suppose those are fringe, and bluegrass-influ... | |
| Looking for some 'grass The Be Good Tanya's - I like "Blue Horse" and "Chinatown" but their new one's pretty good too, though doesn't seem as well recorded.The Wailin' Jennys are new to me but definitely worth checking out.Anything at all by Gillian Welch - You cannot go... | |
| WAV or Apple Lossless Encoder? Drubin - I've checked my settings in SlimServer. I didn't realize you could change them. Currently they are set for the default, which I believe does convert Apple Lossless to FLAC...but I think leaves WAV in its native state. Here's what my setti... |
