| MSB DAC IV That's a hell of a lot of money for what is deemed the best, for now.Let sanity prevail.All the best,Nonoise | |
| MSB DAC IV I heard the MSB set up at the Newport Audio Show and it was, hands down, the finest digital I heard at the show. Little did I know it was a CD playing and not some kind of streaming. It took only two notes and the start of Harry Connick singing an... | |
| What is a high end stereo SUPPOSED to sound like? Stereo replay never actually reproduces a musical event.The only thing you can hope for is a credible illusion.But it can be a very nice illusion.----Bruno PutzeysRok2id,I've also had the pleasure of someone thinking there was a live event at my p... | |
| What is a high end stereo SUPPOSED to sound like? I only started about half a year ago to help me get to sleep due to a shoulder injury. All I can take is about two fingers and I'm done for the night. About twice a week does it for me. I just can't stand taking medications. Apparently you have a ... | |
| What is a high end stereo SUPPOSED to sound like? Sorry about the double post!I don't know how it happened. | |
| What is a high end stereo SUPPOSED to sound like? Very fair, indeed.The times when it sounds real don't happen as often as we'd like so one must revel in the throes when in its presence, knowing it's fleeting at best.More wine?All the best,Nonoise | |

| What is a high end stereo SUPPOSED to sound like? Clear as an unmuddied lake, clear as a sky of azure blue (loved A Clockwork Orange). Very few recordings go for the real, live event. Even those that are sold as live.All that mixing and effects introduced to what the engineer, artist or label is ... | |
| What is a high end stereo SUPPOSED to sound like? Understood.I've read where Steve Hoffman stated that old master tapes that were made off of tube equipment cannot be simply remastered with silicon based equipment. It will not sound right. Various types of software has to be used. And it has to b... | |
| What is a high end stereo SUPPOSED to sound like? Great conversation we are having here.May I add this?This neutrality we are talking about, ie: the absence of audible inaccuracies, be it captured at the live event, at the recorded event, or at the listener event (our system), can be ascertained ... | |
| Marantz Restoration Sorry to hear about the negative feedback on the site I recommended. There's this guy in San Diego: http://audiocraftsman.com/ that I got off of this site:http://www.fmtunerinfo.com/.You can poke around on the fmtuner site (there's also a forum li... | |
| Most "Musical" sounding speaker cable under $1000 As I changed my system, I passed up on an old pair of Clear Day cables to try something else without keeping them in. Almost two years went by. Big mistake. In another thread I relate how they and a pair of Mapleshade Helix wires, used together (b... | |
| Acoustic treatment for apts Do you personally know a good, high end dealer that works nearby?They might have the time to come over and give a quick assessment. You sound like you're half way there. They might see something that's eluding you.All the best,Nonoise | |
| Why are so many albums poorly remastered onto cd I also read that the latest Beatles release that was so highly touted as Hi Rez is merely a 24 bit remastering of the master tapes that was down converted to 16 bit.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1_(The_Beatles_album) see Remastering sectionThat's t... | |
| Why are so many albums poorly remastered onto cd There's this about HD Tracks:http://www.itrax.com/Pages/ArticleDetails.php?aID=32And I thought the 'butterfly effect' had only to do with random, unintended consequences, not intentional ones.All the best,Nonoise |
