| Do Audio Hobbyists Commonly Fail to Fully Utilize Their Systems? I believe I have not made many mistakes because I have done my homework prior to each upgrade, first reading professional journals on equipment within my means, then carefully auditioning the equipment. I always looked at compatibility by compari... | |

| Black Sabbath and Jazz fans? Thank you. Just gave a listen. Phenomenal, energetic interpretations and performances with excellent engineering and sound. The close miked piano is wonderfully palpable and prominent. Adam is a keyboard virtuoso like dad. Wits backstory. | |
| Townshend Audio Seismic Podiums Review The OP’s analysis is on point. I have been using them for years on two different speaker brands and speaker designs with excellent results. | |
| There Is Nothing Like the Real Thing - Our State of the Art @g2the2nd We are on the same page regarding soundstaging of acoustic, in amplified live performances. Recorded and reproduced music is getting closer, but it cannot capture the “presentation is part of the whole flow of the music as it washes o... | |
| There Is Nothing Like the Real Thing - Our State of the Art @jnovak I respect your position for the beauty of the audiophile hobby, and musical appreciation, is that we personally choose how we wish to participate, from system components choices that sound best to us, to musical genres we appreciate, to ve... | |

| There Is Nothing Like the Real Thing - Our State of the Art @helomech Omnidirectional speaker designs have existed for over 60 years. One of the first I recall is the Ohm Walsh. Other brands are German Physiks, MBL, Mirage, Linkwitz Labs, Dueval, Morrison Audio, and one DCM model from the 80s with a multi... | |

A friend had the TC-50s driven by top of the line Counterpoint electronics and sourced by a Sota Star Sapphire with a Gram tone arm and Koetsu Rosewood. Ma... | |
| There Is Nothing Like the Real Thing - Our State of the Art @acresverde I took a peak at your system post. Surprised at the synapse short circuit I caused based on the sophistication of your system. Horns not a fav of mine but your system and attention to detail lends me to conclude you know what you ar... | |
| There Is Nothing Like the Real Thing - Our State of the Art @o_holter Agreed. See my response to @viridian above. | |
| There Is Nothing Like the Real Thing - Our State of the Art @mark200mph, @noromance, @ronboco I posted times before I am first a music lover and second, an audiophile. This produces a degree of dissociative personality disorder where I have two distinct listening modes - 90% of the time listening for enj... | |
