| Bandwidth question? Don c55, nice link. I can't find the articles anymore, but it has been proven in the last twenty years or so that the human brain does definitely detect frequencies above what the ear can hear, scientists just don't understand exactly how yet. | |
| Rega P5, Dynavector cartridge? Please post when you have made the change, and let us know what you think! | |
| How Many Audiophiles Have Do You Know? I know a great many, but I am also a professional musician, and we naturally have a much higher percentage of our profession interested in audio reproduction than any other. I am surprised and more than a little disappointed to hear that so many o... | |

| Which is more accurate: digital or vinyl? Hi guys - Frogman, thanks for your excellent post. You are so much better at explaining these things than I am. Vertigo, your last comparison to the human voice is exactly right as well. As Frogman said, the instrument becomes an extension of your... | |

| Man in need of new music Hi Klipschking - I would second the recommendation to go to some concerts live in your local area, especially if you happen to be in a major metropolitan area that has lots of offerings. That said, I think Mozart is the best place to start, partic... | |

| Can the copy sound better than the original? This has been my experience as well - follow Al's link for a good discussion. | |
| Uverse quality questions Everyone I know who has switched away from DirecTV, especially to Uverse, has really regretted it. I'm very happy with DirecTV, I wouldn't switch. | |

| Do not buy any Sonus Faber used The way I read it, it is talking about warranty issues, as a couple of others pointed out. I am sure you can still get replacement parts, they just won't be covered under warranty. You also don't necessarily have to go through the American distrib... | |
| What component is responsible for dynamics ? Agree that if you want the full range of dynamics, both macro and micro, highly efficient horn speakers are the way to go. This is one of their biggest advantages over other speaker types, and I want to emphasize that this is not just on the loud ... |
