| What is the standard for judging a systems sound? So it comes to this. I posted the question because I have thought for along time that what is reproduced by a good stereo should sound like instruments playing, not a record playing (or CD, SACD, cassette, or 8-track). Through the years my system ... | |

| What is the standard for judging a systems sound? Frogman, what I am saying is that a listener can only have a general idea what the original recording sounded like since there are too many variables in every concert.What type of violin did the soloist play, what type of flute was each flutist pl... | |
| What is the standard for judging a systems sound? I happen to know for a fact that Nrchy is an idiot, so don't put much stock in what he says!Frogman, you raise a lot of valid points and I hope I can clarify some of what I intended to state.Thr issue is not that I would not be able to recognize v... | |
| I auditioned SACD today I enjoyed your summary of your experience. So many of these threads are just blind praise or hatchet jobs. You recounted your valid experience and come to a thoughtful conclusion.While I have and enjoy a decent SACDP and have chosen another course... | |

| How many audiophiles bi wire their speakers???? This is bi-amping, not bi-wiring. | |
| Vanderteen 5A's versus Wilson WattPuppy 7's Did you listen to any other speakers in the same room so you could get a feel for the sonic characteristics of the room. If you know what the roomsounds like it is easier to get a feel for how the speakers sound.Which one of the auditioning system... | |
| What to upgrade next? Remember, a speaker will never reproduce what doesn't get there from the front end, therefore all things being equal speakers are the least important componant in your system. No speaker will have a good spectrum of sound, good imaging or soundsta... | |
| What to upgrade next? Upgrade the room. It will make more difference than replacing the whole system. Most sonic annoyances are created by the room, not the system. I have found the information available from Rives to be incredible. Check out http://www.rivesaudio.com ... | |
| What preamp to buy for my Aragon Palladiums.. I had Aragon amplification before going to Krell amp and pre-amp. If you want to try a real gem with those amps check out the Krell KRC 2. It is the best deal of the KRC line since it is cheaper than the KRC (original) and the KRC-HR and better th... | |
| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? While I consider the statements about amplifiers being fully understood to be as absurd as statement as was ever made in the history of the world, the statement cannot be currently disproven.As design continues to improve and the next big step is ... | |
| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? Eldartford, I think there is a lot of correlation between the two points. Just because we understand some of how an amplifier works, doesn't mean we understand all the minute details. In that respect there are many similarities between cosmology, ... | |
| is it me or sacd. I was a little surprised about the comments made about "Bringing It All Back Home" since I have had this SACD of a while and didn't notice this problem. I must admit that I usually listened to it in the truck.I got the disc out and listened to it ... | |
| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? Eldartford, I don't think science is anywhere near as mature as you and others might suggest. We understand the basics of many things but the details of very few.I have studied college physics and mathematics, and for the most part been successful... |
