| Rolling Stones Tour 2015 I saw Stones Some Girls Tour at JFK stadium years ago. Sound quality was very poor plus I almost got trampled in a riot outside beforehand.I mostly avoid large outdoor venues with high ticket prices, although I broke teh rule for paul McCartney at... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution I find it funny how some will change any of their hardware at the blink of an eye the instant something does not sound exactly right but will never consider the simple things that might be done to correct common simple problems like that fact that... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution Realize also that dynamics and frequency response are related, not two completely independent aspects of sound, althoughthat is how we tend to think about it often. An issue with dynamics might still be solved by adjusting frequency response. An e... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution Not be heretic about it but our ears do not have flat frequency response to start with, hear differently at different volumes, and become less sensitive over time as noted. So digital signal processing or equalization may be all the doctor ordered... | |

| How to divide a budget between components Not a good approach. | |
| Rolling Stones Tour 2015 Yep an EXPENSIVE nostalgia act.I've had my share so will pass.They can still put on a good show in many ways though for those still interested enough.I can go see many local bands that are also good do Chuck Berry or whatever so not much appeal to... | |
| What music do you want to play really loud? Check This out.Awesome. Peter Hamill looks like on of those planet leaders on Star Trek. | |
| What music do you want to play really loud? Also "Killer" and "Man Erg" by Van Der Graff Generator. | |
| Why are records still warped? NEw vinyl is a big cash grab IMHO. I don't understand why people would subject themselves to it, especially those who remember the golden days of vinyl. | |
| Rolling Stones Tour 2015 They are an expensive nostalgia act at this point. I give them credit for keeping it together at all for so long though. Their act does not age well. 70+ year old guys acting like young rock and rollers still. Lots of great songs in their catalog ... | |
| What music do you want to play really loud? "Apocalypse in 9/8"Oh yes.... |
