| What is the BEST sound card to use with a MAC G5 There's a small problem with current generation soundcards. The best ones are designed for professional use and they are multi channel designs. They end up being more complex then any audiophile would require. That said you can get excellent sound... | |
| What would you upgrade next ?? Can I improve the resolving power of my system?Suppose the real answer to your question was -- NO. Could you deal with it? Is it possible that without replacing virtually every component in your current setup that you won't be able to improve the... | |
| mac mini Sidssp, it could be different under different versions of OS X and iTunes, but wouldn't what you've recommended activate the iTunes sample rate converter? | |
| What would you upgrade next ?? My system is finally sounding pretty good. Actually gives me goosebumps.If that's really the case, then most changes you could make would probably not improve what you've already got. My advice is to take the money you would spend on equipment and... | |
| If hard drive betters optical digital retrieval Yamaha had such a product. The Alesis Masterdisk also work in that way. | |
| Which speakers will fill 5,000 cubic ft coherently Atmashpere, in your opinion which is more important - the speaker's relative impedance or the smoothness of the impedance curve? For instance, would an amp rather see a speaker that rated at 16 ohms which actually varies from 12 ohms to 45 ohms, o... | |
| Which speakers will fill 5,000 cubic ft coherently I think some people are stretching the point about tube amps not working well with sub-8 ohm loads. As a rule OTL designs prefer high impedance loads, but tube amps as a whole can work perfectly well into lower impedance speakers. If you take into... | |
| Which speakers will fill 5,000 cubic ft coherently Springbok, I now understand your desire not to switch amps, but I'm still not sure about the limitations about where you can place the loudspeaker. It's highly unlikely that a speaker of the performance you are considering will work optimally in t... | |
| Which speakers will fill 5,000 cubic ft coherently To take a step back for a second, you're more likely to have success if you first match the speakers to the room and then match an amplifier to the speakers. You seem to be trying to collapse these two separate steps into one. Not that it can't be... | |
| Goodbye CD's In its new stores Borders is testing burn your own CD kiosks. Compared to Best Buy or WalMart, Borders had a good selection, but in absolute terms there was never much depth to their in-store catalog. And that's coming from someone who lives in th... | |
| Difference between today and yesterday. There's a paradox going on here. Undoubtedly modern products offer a better performance/value ratio than what was available a generation ago and at the high end increased design and manufacturing knowledge coupled with better materials make it pos... | |
| Best Cold Weather & Bloody Knuckles Integrated Amp Look for anything seriously cheap. Think of it as a disposable item. Consumer electronics are not really designed to withstand the conditions you propose. | |
| Which speakers will fill 5,000 cubic ft coherently You need to better specify what volume level you desire. You should also state what amp(s) you would be using. | |
| On evaluating speakers? Pedrillo, I understand your points, but it still would be easier to take an SACD disc to the dealer. However, if you think it's worthwhile to spend $1,200 on the recorder and are willing to take the time to do your own recordings, then let us know... | |
| 1 Gb RAM enough with Mac Mini? In an absolute sense nearly any computer will work more efficiently with more RAM installed. The Mac OS X system can do more things quicker with the extra RAM. That said, if the computer is being used solely to run iTunes, then 1 Gb is more than s... |
