When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I just want to correct the statement that rumble is in the same spectra(is that a word?) as ticks and pops. I believe ticks and pops are way up in the khz, but also that's where extra-musical stuff is. 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Actually, I just noticed that D edwards answered my question about how to listen to digital. He said that you need surround-sound, I believe. 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
My ticks and pops submission brings me to a previous point and inquiry. I would suggest that when listening to analog, one listens to the music(and not the ticks and pops). That is how one listens to analog. I, therefore, want to repeat the questi... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I don't know if I can articulate this properly. I was playing "Crosby-Nash(a platinum-plus lp), and I asked my brother where the click and pops were. Then I heard some. When I focused on them, it was very disturbing. After thinking about that, one... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I just want to mention(again) that in a properly setup analog system, clicks and pops are separated from the music(i.e., when listening to the music, you won't hear{or it won't intrude) the pops and clicks. Maybe we need some turntable designers t... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
This may sound stupid. I have listened to my daughter's(does that date me somewhat?) car stereo. She played Elton John's Greatest Hits. Listening to songs that I am familiar with, it hit all the right notes, had great separation, and maybe added s... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Maybe digital is equivalent to Linn's philosophy, in a way. Until they suggested the foot-tapping way to evaluate equipment, people didn't look at things that way(and I'm not saying that is the only way to look at things). Is there a way of lookin... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I hope no one gets offended by what I say(after all, I have been diagnosed by a professional). Who would think that I'm not interested in an almost complete catalog of Neil Young's music on one disc(that I could play in my car)? I'm more intereste... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I also wonder if the recording mechanism of digital is inherently flawed. How easy would it be to double the sampling rate(this question dates me, as far as when I was last interested in digital)? And Tvad, I'm working backwards. In other words, a... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I'm trying to understand how one gets off on digital. Is it the individual sounds sounding so life-like? I have heard some incredible sounding digital. For instance, at the Stereophile hi-end show in San Francisco in 1988(?). They were using Apoge... 
PC and Interconnects w/Exemplar 3910
Since I use both your interconnects and speaker cable, my advice may(or may not) be pertinent to your situation. It may take some time, but I will be putting in a fully-kitted Linn(circa 1992-with Mana Sound Table), along with my Ariston. My curre...

I just want to say that I'm suprised(and appreciative-is that a word?) of Stehno's imputs. 
What cables should match the Sun audio SV2A3
Oritek does have a website, although it might be easier to access(no spell-check available) it through "10 audio". I'm a little disappointed(not) that I paid $390 for .6 meters(about 25 inches from tip to tip). Ori emailed me to say that .4 meters... 
Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker
I'm not sure of the crossover frequencies(and, hence, I cannot help you identify your particular version.), but I have always suspected that they were different from each other, let's say on just one speaker. I, myself, wonder what the chalkmarks ... 
Top Ten Interconnects of all time...
The thing is, Wc65mustang, is that there have been so many advances in cable-just in the last 4-5 years, that I can assure you that the Oritek X-2 will outperform almost all of the top-ten interconnects of all time. So will many others made in the...
