| CD-R Recs Same here - I use Sharpie on different non- inkjet printable CD-Rs for a long time and have no problems. | |
| CD-R Recs Taiyo Yuden is the best (they invented CD-R). You can get it cheap here: http://www.supermediastore.com/ (free shipping)They did not change name to JVC - they sell under JVC name in Europe since they acquired 65% of JVC recording business. They we... | |
| I want a warmer high end My Paradigms Studio/60 v.2 were too bright with neutral Rowland 102 (class D) and Benchmark DAC1. I bought Hyperion HPS-938 and now it is heaven. Sound is very dynamic and detailed but somehow laid back and relaxed. All CDs sound musical now. Midr... | |
| HDCD VS SACD Well, it looks like price went down a lot. The most common price I found for SACD was $18.98 but when I tried to find Keith Jarrett (made a lot of recordings) in SACD the only thing on Amazon was $34: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=sea... | |
| HDCD VS SACD Blindjim - Yes I remember initial slew of CDs. Bright unpleasant sound was, according to rumors, cause by frequency correction included for LP pressing. The fact is that a lot of music got digitized with A/D jitter that cannot be removed.I agree w... | |
| HDCD VS SACD Kr4 - I was under the impression that Sony abandoned SACD. I could not find current Sony Blu-Ray wit SACD. I checked BDP-S360. BDP-N460, BDP-S5000ES and they don't have it. What Sony model has SACD? | |
| To terminate.. or not Axle - low impedance is only at low frequencies. At RF it appears as high impedance and also as amp's input since feedback is connected there (class AB amp has gain before feedback as high as 4000). I would suspect that the highest radiation comes... | |
| HDCD VS SACD Blindjim - I've never heard SACD but according to reviews I read it is way better than anything else being equivalent to 20bit/96kHz. The problem is that the format is dead. (DSD as I understand is 4 bit wide SACD).- only 5000 available titles - e... | |
| Quest to achieve live sound "Hire a band" - Ncarv, for the cost of some audio gear one can hire symphony orchestra many times. | |
| To terminate.. or not Axle - Shielding is a very difficult thing. I assume you're talking about shielding speaker cables from external EMI radiation. I'm not sure that you need to shield speaker cables but in general shielding works a little different than we think. Sh... | |
| HDCD VS SACD Blindjim - HDCD is not encoded in 20 bit words. The word length is 16-bit. The claim is that it is "equivalent" to 20 bit performance.Part of better sound quality of HDCD is the fact that only (or mostly) very well recorded CDs (or remastered) are... | |
| HDCD VS SACD "It is a playback only decode system, which means that it's benefits are applied during the playback of standard Redbook CD's and is only compatible with that format."This is wrong. It has to be recorded HDCD to be played HDCD so it is NOT "a play... | |
| To terminate.. or not Rja - Why? They are the best invention since sliced bread. My cable is very thick and heavy but it cannot get unscrewed. Traditional post can get loose with rotation of the wire but Cardas Clamp cannot - it is very strong and secure. I also love b... | |
| Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT?? Mapman - I agree, errors are very likely. Even with two identical transports one might have film or dirt on the lens while error correction is very loose (has to operate in real time). Also not every transport is "bit transparent" invoking DSP pro... | |
