| any audiophile guitarists out there? Daveyf - Before I realize I have no talent for music I bought 30W VOX Valvetronic. It uses DSP processing to mimic sound of different cabinets but also effects. Non-distorted effects are pretty good but distorted are horrible. At the time I consid... | |
| any audiophile guitarists out there? It is Roland Microcube. Rowland makes only audio gear. | |
| longevity of good speakers "The fluid in tweeters may dry out" - or midrange (my Hyperions have ferrofluid damping in 6 1/2" midrange).I believe fluid can be replaced. | |
| Toddler-Friendly Budget Speakers? Mapman - wider at the bottom is good but it would be ideal to have membranes outside of reach or covered by steel mesh (or woofer firing down). | |
| Dolby Noise Reduction: Relevant or Not? Amount added is mostly above 5kHz so playback without Dolby will be a little bright and noisy. Idea of Dolby NR is to suppress tape noise. | |
| asynchronous USB dac or jitter reducing device No, they reduce all S/PDIF jitter (transport, cable etc). They cannot reduce jitter of their own D/A clock.There is also jitter in A/D process - that one cannot be removed. Poorly digitized tapes at the beginning of CD have to be digitized again (... | |
| The Sound or Music "Does that make me not an audiophile?"Yes it does - since you care about sound.Public library is great. For a while selection was limited and physical quality (scratches) really bad. Now they have a lot of CDs plus judging by radial marks (when I ... | |
| The Sound or Music Orpheus10 - You are right but it doesn't have to be LP. I listen more to violin solo CDs that I was avoiding before because sound was flat and screechy - not interesting (even annoying). I cannot separate sound from the music - it is one whole exp... | |
| The Sound or Music Synthfreek - 7000 CDs is incredible. How long are you collecting?If you chose Boombox you are a music lover. Sadly, because people pay more attention to music producers pay less attention to quality. As long as people buy poorly recorded CDs nothi... | |
| The Sound or Music Yeah.. Cindy on the drums and Tal Winkenfeld on the bass.Any more ladies? | |
| New Jimi Hendrix 7" vinyl comming out Slikric3000 - New 2010 remaster (CD) of Axis: Bold as Love is incredible. | |
| The Sound or Music Shadorne - Not everyone likes clarity/transparency and resolution (I do). Reading user reviews of my Benchmark DAC1 I found opinion that it is too resolving/analytical making possible to hear each instrument instead of preferred "sound blob" that ... | |
| The Sound or Music Orpheus10 - It is never ending quest for me too (to a point) but I don't have GAS (Gear Acquire Syndrom). | |
| The Sound or Music Relative was mine (I don't share him). There might be more than one reason for him to enjoy orchestral music on poor system. One reason I mentioned is love of music that made him blind to a sound but the other is modesty. I see people like that al... | |
| The Sound or Music "perfect stereo system, but limited to your favorite 300 recordings"...or "crummy boombox, and thousands of interesting recordings""you must choose one only"Elizabeth you are a very cruel person! |
