| Basic/mid fi headphone advice. The Sonys that I got block sound out quite well. And my wife says she hears nothing when I’m sitting nearby with them.I used earbuds with shooting ear muffs (I’m a shooter too) for years when I was mowing on my farm tractor. Works well enough for ... | |
| Movies with... On Frasier he always talked about his stuff but I'm not sure they ever showed anyting......or was there a Bose Wave radio in one? ;-) | |
| ... thoughts on Taylor Swift's REPUTATION CD... Not sure but on America's Got Talent the sound quality of the music is incredibly bad.I have found that music with compressed DR sounds okay, or at least tolerable, in the car. I'm assuming road noise etc pretty much masks any lower volumes anyway. | |
| Aerial 7B amp recommendations @adg101, thanks. Jumper straps were missing when I got the speakers. | |
| Aerial 7B amp recommendations @adg101, I do not completely understand the principle of bi-wiring but my speakers came with pre-configured Transparent brand "bi-wire". In other words there is one set of terminals at the amp end and two sets at the speaker end. The speaker has t... | |
| Aerial 7B amp recommendations I have those speakers but I can’t help you in regard to what is enough. I inherited mine along with a Proceed HPA2 which is 250 wpc. They sound amazing to me but I have nothing to compare with what I’ve got. I’ve always heard that these speakers n... | |
| Thinking about a new, lower end CD Player @soix , I did actually think about that but didn't do it. Can't hurt though...........so I tried it and no cigar. I'll leave it unplugged for a while and try it again later.Thanks guys for all the other advice.I think the first step is to get the ... | |
| Thinking about a new, lower end CD Player I can't believe it. The Sony just bit the dust. Went to put a CD in it just now and it ejects it. Tried other CDs, same thing. Even without a CD it keeps opening the tray and there is a buzzing noise inside.So the plot thickens.If I'm happy with t... | |
| Basic/mid fi headphone advice. So far I'm happy with the SQ in the Sonys. They seem very neutral to me without over-the-top bass. But, I find the ear pieces to be slightly uncomfortable after more than about 20 minutes. The cushion is very shallow and just not quite big enough.... | |
| Thinking about a new, lower end CD Player I will retrieve the Arcam from my cabin this weekend and try it out. Will post my impressions once I've done it. Thanks. | |
| Thinking about a new, lower end CD Player I am not interested in streaming as my primary listening source at this time. Prefer to own my music in a tangible way. Call me a dinosaur, whatever. But really enjoying CDs right now and getting good recordings at great prices.@djones51, I had th... | |
| Any Mark Knopfler fans out there? I'm currently still luke warm on Privateering. Sailing to Philadelphia has not inspired me to buy it yet but I'll probably end up getting it at some point.Get Lucky has grabbed me and I purchased it today.The more I listen to Tracker the more I li... | |
| Young and Dangerous - Album Review (long) Saw the other day that The Struts performed two of their songs on the Victoria Secret Fashion Show which will air in December. They're to appear on Jimmy Fallon as well.I'm not sure what it takes for a band to make it big these days. Is it radio? ... | |
| The best music in 2018 Thanks for the tip on Terry Evans. Will check that out. I'm fairly familiar with most of the older traditional blues guys...including Buddy Guy, but have not kept up with the newer artists. I'm pretty picky. I feel like a lot has to go into a blue... | |
| full-scale orchestral music—best test of speakers’ potential? Unless you listen to one thing and it does it perfectly. Then it would be a perfect system. |
