can i recreate the sound of vinyl by encoding the vinyl frequencies onto digital audio? Oh well. There goes my credit score. I have a lot of stuff. Tell me what you want to know. I’ll be happy to answer maybe even post links to pics if relevant to the thread. | |
Do Audiophile Cables Matter? Here's PROOF! Or the other way around, I wonder how the DNM Reson IC wires I like that happen to look a lot like 300 ohm FM antenna wire would work as an antenna? Maybe they are the best!!! | |
Jazz vocalists recorded wonderfully 👍 | |
Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Yes, Bosch obviously has very fine taste! 😉 | |
can i recreate the sound of vinyl by encoding the vinyl frequencies onto digital audio? Any good quality Analog to digital converter operating at CD resolution will produce a copy that sounds like original. I Convert my vinyl to digital all the time. Never fails. | |
Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) ...also would add that dips in bass response will tend to add emphasis to the rest which could also be a factor in the overall tonality issues.I bet the Fritz do really well if set up facing lengthwise with some distance to rear wall somewhere aro... | |
Is imaging reality? Think of hifi as an abstract form of art. Producers create recordings to sound the way they like. They are never exact representations of reality. However, with good ones, there is more of an abstract reality to reproduce, experience, and enjoy ... | |
Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) That would fit the bill. Also still worth checking impedance/phase curves for an easy load. Fritz should be a leader there and so far seems to be.It’s seldom just one thing. Could be at least three contributing factors to various degrees 1) inhere... | |
Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Another very good value speaker model that just came to mind that I found to be most polite in the top end are Goldenear Aon3. Thing is the MLs, which I have not heard, appear to use a similar folded ribbon tweet like the Goldenear so it surprises... | |
Inner tracks vs outer tracks A simple examination of any record will demonstrate that the geometry of the grooves changes continuously from outer to inner grooves as the diameter of the record decreases. It’s the best they could do when conceived over 100 years ago. Yes the t... | |
Is Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF) sexist? Don’t worry MC you fuss and complain all the time and you are still here. | |
Is imaging reality? It's a simulation. That's the best we can shoot for. | |
Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Stands could be less than 26", perhaps just a few inches elevated off floor with slight tilt up/back, if needed, like with the Isoacoustics I referenced above. | |
Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) hilde,The speakers are directional so the most higher frequency energy fires straight ahead. I’d expect way more distance to the facing wall to be beneficial in reducing reflections overall. That and/or lowering the speaks as discussed (combined p... | |
Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Hmm well I did not catch the location within the room but firing down the long dimension to reduce reflected sound amplitude from walls and provide more flexibility with seating location and distance from rear wall sounds like a good thing to try ... |
