| Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles? Always interesting. Count me in. | |
| Help me spend $5,000 on a 5.1 speaker system Omnidirectional speakers are a good choice for HT and stereo. You should also look into this system. You'll not only have topnotch HT, you'll have great 2-channel for music. | |
| Active Speakers: The usual suspects .... Not only shouldn't we confuse powered speakers with active, we shouldn't assume all active speakers are powered. The ones I referred to above all have external x/o and amp. Although one should probably stick with the prescribed x/o, the amps are u... | |
| Active Speakers: The usual suspects .... Check out these:http://www.pacificislandaudio.net/http://www.morrisonaudio.com/http://www.linkwitzlab.com/Websites also contain good information. | |
| Cables Are Crazy, what do you think? Next, try to convince your "DR." [sic] friend that the earth is the center of the universe.Seriously, if you want to prove to him that there is an audible difference you need to speak his language. Show him the physics behind your claims. Empirica... | |
| Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles? Finally have some time to host a gathering to demonstrate the new system. I'm thinking Sunday, 13 April, at 2:30 pm. Anyone interested, please email me. Looking forward to meeting you. | |
| The most important word of advise? Kurt_tank: Oops. As soon as I read your "First, . ." I knew. Thanks, I'll take your advice, and be more careful next time. Let others be advised to do the same. | |
| Why vinyl? Jdaniel: Not sure I follow you. Are you saying that IF the original master is 24/96 or higher, the LP is cut directly from that master through a 24/96 DAC, and that CDs are pressed from a downconversion, 24/96 to 16/44? What if, as is the case mos... | |
| Why vinyl? One thing stands out from many of the responses. The quality of the recording and mastering is the primary delimiter whether LP or CD. One person asked a question that has yet to be answered. If new releases on vinyl are from a digital recording/m... | |
| Best recordings to demonstrate soundstage? I have a number of the recommended recordings, but I don't understand how studio recordings could demonstrate soundstage. Studio recordings have no real soundstage. If there is any, it's only an artificially simulated one. Tried the DiBango—great ... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? The medium is relevant. I used to think there was something special in a live performance that couldn't be captured in any recording. I thought it was something almost magical going on between the performers and the audience that made the differen... | |
| Frequencies? Bass, Mids, Hi's? Range? -Audible range is approximately 10 octaves - 20 Hz to 20k Hz.-Bass, bottom 3 octaves - 20 to 160-Midrange, middle 4 octaves - 160 to 2500-Treble, top 3 octaves - 2500 to 20k-Voice is approximately 80 Hz to 5k, including most prominent harmonics -S... | |
| Music for toddlers and parents? I agree with Destep. Expose her to a wide variety, classical, jazz, rock, world, etc. But, you're asking for Children's music. Look for Hap Palmer. The best children's music I've heard—creative, educational, interesting, fun, interactive, and just... | |
| Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles? Just about any Sunday late afternoon is a good time. Looking forward. . . | |
| Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles? Hi All. Has anyone met recently? Just finished a new system. Would like to meet others, learn about their systems, and get suggestions/opinions of my new system. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks. |
