| Neutral electronics are a farce... What's the beef?atmasphere says phase switch may not always be audible. Geoff say it was in certain cases cited. Breaking news:. No inconsistency here. Is it always necessary to have the last word? I'm sure I won't be the one. 😭 | |

| Headphone question Yes I've read the Sonys are very highly regarded phones for studio monitoring.You want pro gear for that, not gear designed for private use. Does not matter the brand.GO to a local Guitar Center. They usually carry most of the most likely pro a... | |

| Neutral electronics are a farce... Atmasphere do you know if the MLP label recordings were "inverted"?I've never heard anything about that. My understanding is they have the "holographic imaging" the best ones do because they were miked very simply for that (2 or 3 mikes for na... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Its interesting that phase inversion tricks often result in most "holographic" recordings.There have been various gadgets over the years that add this in some form. I had a Omnisonic Imaging device many years ago, also a pre-amp with Carver sonic ... | |
| Headphone question Why not just record with no EQ and have a recording that is same as original? If source is Ortofon cart recording should be no brighter or different than otherwise, right?Or if the cart is too bright to start, maybe something can be done there.Onc... | |
| I am somewhat amazed that there is no thread dealing with Star Sound Tech's devices I've never used but if they've been around a long time and have a big following that speaks for itself.Looks like some nice products in the line. Might consider someday if needed. So far the product lines I have used and found effective for tre... | |
| Headphone question Bondman, Are you applying equalization or any other processing during the recording?There are many reasons why monitored sound might not sound or be an accurate representation of what is recorded, so I would hesitate to draw conclusions on that un... | |
