| Soundstage and image height, does it exist? I guess the Cowboy Junkies on Trinity Sessions were just an artifact of the recording engineer and their positions had nothing to do with what I hear concerning their placement on the soundstage? They used just one mike and sat or stood around it... | |

| Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread Now maybe some will consider the dangers of shutting down speech, even that which you don't like. It always comes down to who decides what '"truth" is. Are you trying to convince people here that banned speech on private platforms that promote ... | |
