| software filters I use a DAW with Sound Forge 15 which is a full mastering program and can be used to gently tweak sound files or radically change them if you do not have any bass or treble. Once I have altered the sound file I then save it as DSD files which are ... | |
| RCA cables to a subwoofer- how much does it matter? It can all boil down to which kind of music you like. In a classical Orchestra there are a few sources of bass notes wind percussion and string and each has a distinctly different type and timbre of sound. You also have low bass in hall effects s... | |
| PC Audio recording from external digital source using PC Software/Sound Forge I would stick with buying a Sound Forge package it's one of the very best out there and so easy to use. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados This lament was penned after the the battle of Flodden in 1513 when King James the Fourth and nearly all the Scottish nobility were wiped out. | |
| CD transport vs.streaming If your streamer and CD Player sound the same then I would advise you to purchase the ENO ethernet filter from Network Acoustics and you will be blown away by how much better your Streamer could be. | |
| Preamp recommendations for Quad IIs with ESL-57s Well Quad did make a 33 and a 44 and I am sure one of those could be adapted to fit the older amps especially if you want to retain the Quad house sound. | |

| Classical Music for Aficionados Andras Schiff has a very well respected Brahms twin piano concertos that I can really relate to. I think he plays a nearly period Bosendorfer but to hear it you wouldn't know it. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Oh Len I'm so glad you are getting through it. My thoughts are with you my friend. Take care , Jim. | |

| Classical Music for Aficionados @jim5559 Yes you certainly got that one right but you have illuminated another point , in music like the drill field Discipline rules also . Where would we all be without our scales arpeggios, thirds fifths and octaves. Yes that is why the dr... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Aye "jim5559" I see you have been putting some lovely video files lately, as the drill sergeant would say Keep itUp. | |
| ISO-PLUS Ethernet RF Filters vs Fiber Optic Cable I would seriously advise you on Network Acoustic ENO filter , it goes after the switch into the Ethernet input. It made an incredible difference to my setup and they give you 30 days to return it if your not impressed. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados @rvpiano You are right RV about Lewis playing the Brahms late pieces I listened to them last night and totally agree with you. There are a few recordings of late Brahms doing the rounds at the moment, Volodos Kantorow and Lewis and all special i... |
