| Apple Ipod before you buy the i pod, encode some cds to mp3, convert back to wav, and burn on a disc. play them in your system and see if you like what you hear. if you don't like the way mp3 sounds you might not want to do the i pod thing. | |
| What music do you want to play really loud? i just listened to the wall this morning for the first time in like 10 years (loud!) because i havn't heard it on my new system. it left me paralyzed! | |
| Media Software you can convert the wavs to either .shn or .flac (both LOSSLESS compression) and use winamp with the appropriate plugins to decode them on the fly while listening.i would not touch mp3 with a 99 1/2 foot pole.info:shnhttp://www.etree.org/mkw.htmlf... | |
| Crimping bare speaker cable connections here's what i've picked up reading post all over the internet:you dont want the signal going through dissimilar metals... that's why using bare wires is the best. the down side is cleaning the corrosion, as you have stated.most people say that cri... | |
| severe limiting factor i've been playing around and currently have some fine acoustic treatments (bath towels) hanging on the walls. this seemed to help "clean up" the music. after that, i put the speakers 6' apart, which puts them very close to the side walls, and toed... | |
| severe limiting factor ok, i'm back :)i've been holding off on posting, but i'm sure appreciating all the info that's been presented here.the reason i havn't looked into the phasing issue yet is that i ordered some spade connectors that just came yesterday. i should get... | |
| severe limiting factor Thanks for the responses so far.I should first say that what I mean by no SS or imaging is that I hear the music coming from the speakers.. not in front of them, behind them, or to their sides. it appears to come right from the wood boxes that are... | |
| To Shield or not?....Warm,WIde, &Deep SOund check out this thread for some info.http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?fcabl&1075252469&openfrom&1&4#1good luck in your search! | |
| Guitar Solos KVHW (kimock, vega, hertz, & white) is also awesome (pre steve kimock band). also can be found on db.etree.org. | |
| hey besides exact audio copy...what about burning i thought i heard something about FM radio switching over to digital (uncompressed). has anyone else heard this, or is it just a rumor? | |
| is a 555:1 impedance ratio ok? i'm not sure if this posted correctly before, so forgive me if this is a double.does the output impedance of the EQ box change if i switch between two different preamps with different output impedances?i think i need clarification on the relations... | |
| is a 555:1 impedance ratio ok? I dont have the specs but i can call thiel tomorrow... unless someone else has them.so do i need to match the preamp to the eq box? i wonder what a desireable pre/EQ box ratio is. | |
| hey besides exact audio copy...what about burning i consider eac the best for "ripping", but as far as burning, you will get a huge number of opinions. the reason for this is because the DAE (digital audio extraction) is a much more complicated process to get right than the actual burning. burnin... | |
| is a 555:1 impedance ratio ok? i hava a classe ca-200 and am thinking of getting an anthem PRE1L. something else i've been wondering about... i'm using thiel 3.5s that come with a bass EQ box that goes between the pre and power amps. what effect, if any, would this have on impe... | |
| Do Audio Experience Symphonies leak DC current? Chui Chi Wai of YS Audio replied to me and requested that i update this thread with the following info. he said that one output cap needs to be removed which will correct the problem of amps going into protection mode. there are two in parallel, s... |
