thoughts while listening Mine are usually along the lines of... "I hope I can stay awake long enough to get past track two" | |
Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? What? I said nothing about any sort of sound effects ata ll - please read my post. I said I do not like music coming at me from all angles and that is what surround sound does! It might be subtle but there are still elements coming from the rear s... | |
Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? I'm not sure why people are being so intransigent about this - any subjective scenario of this nature is neither right nor wrong. I know Robert Harley is a well known fan of multi-channel music but I hate it. Having music coming at me from all ang... | |
The Order of Obsolescence But you cannot compare LP (vinyl) and any other audio software - they are not rivals for eachother but exist hand-in-hand. Vinyl will continue unabated because it has no competitor. In a way, I'll be glad when proper digital i.e. solid state becom... | |
Is this the END of DAYS for the high end CD player Mrtennis - My advice - consume as much of the mighty B3 as possible :) | |
Meridian 508.24 or CEC TL15XR ??? HELP I tried the Rega a dew years back. I own a Meridian and the Rega could not, IMHO, ever be considered anything but a huge step down in quality. That said, I'd not be buying any component unseen and unheard, however good the bargain. Even if the act... | |

Is this the END of DAYS for the high end CD player As much as I hate the idea, the CD player is coming to the end of the road. Manufacturers will not put money into R&D if people cease to purchase the physical copies. The hard-core of us that continue to purchase CDs are nowhere near enough to... | |
Real Stinkers Roy Wood - are you sure? :) | |
Are audiophile speakers turn on for single women? There are obviously women audiophiles - this place is testament to that - it's just that I have never met one. No women I have ever come across have shown the slightest interest in Hi-Fi sound or gear aesthetics. Mind you, precious few men have ei... | |
Gerry Rafferty dies Not reporting cause of death in today's media rich society would be the equivalent of hiding one's head in the sand. Anyone can research a person's life to the nth degree via the internet, notwithstanding accuracies of reporting. One doesn't need ... | |
Best external hard drive to store PC ripped music Along the same sort of lines, I am also interested. But I worked in IT long enough to realise the fallibility of hard drives - is there a solid state alternative? | |
Loudspeakers - how best to prolong their lifetime? Anyone know of a company in the UK that would do it - just in case :) |
