| Job of Producer versus Recording Engineer It's not always clear cut, but the producer is responsible for the overall sound and vibe of a recording while the engineer is responsible for getting that sound on tape. It really depends on the specific people involved and the roles can heavily ... | |
| Are the Klipschorns mainly for Classical music ?? Boa2, outstanding use of rule #22. They'll never see you coming. I can't what to see your #15.For those who don't know and a discussion of their cultural significance. Although not classical, they are somewhat musically relevant, kinda'. | |
| Wndows media player to Apple Itunes What's the advantage of converting from MP3 to Apple Lossless? | |
| Can a component after complete breaking reverse ? I love your question - can a broken component become unbroken. Only audiophiles even know what is being asked. Normal people wold say it breaks the conservation of energy principle.In the realm of the audiophile this is one of those some people he... | |
| Analog vs. CDP: A fair comparison? The largest cost for either format is not in equipment, but in music software. If you get rid of the Cary how will you listen to any of your CDs? How many albums do you have to play on your new turntable. There's no rule about the ratio of music t... | |
| Are the Klipschorns mainly for Classical music ?? DAMNED, he called you a musician! That is a low low blow, particularly coming from an ex-hifi salesman. Boa2, if I were you, I'd get medieval on 'em and throw some 48 rules in there pimply faces. YEAH BOYZ! | |
| Speakers that sound good in tight spots? Gradient makes a number of loudspeakers that are designed to work against a wall. Allison also makes loudspeakers that are designed to work in corners. | |
| Are the Klipschorns mainly for Classical music ?? Boa2, thanks for the kind explanation. I know from other posts that you love your tweaked Klipschs, so I thought it was a little odd that you might be actively looking for a replacement. Best of luck with the quest for the new living quarters, but... | |
| Are the Klipschorns mainly for Classical music ?? I go out and listen to 3-4 systems per month, and for the past several years, in fact. In people's homes, dealerships, audio shows, etc. Not with the intention of coming home a winner, but rather with the intention of finding our next speaker.Boa2... | |
| PMC Speakers:"Best Buy"or just another speaker? PMCs are similar to ATCs. They are both aimed at the pro studio monitor market where they are very well respected. Some audiophiles will find them too revealing due to their accuracy. Search the archives, there was a lengthy thread about the diffe... | |
| Avantgarde Trio replacing Dunlavy SC-V? Before making expensive system changes why not consult with a professional acoustic engineer? It could potentially save you a good deal of money and get the great, full range sound you seek. Mix has an extensive set of article and links in there F... | |
| Have you seen the VR9SE Review? Yes I did read the entire article and I stand by my earlier comments. I certainly didn't mean any disrespect towards Mikelavigne (and I don't think he took it that way), but even he describes the article as less than a review.One think I wish he w... | |
| Have you seen the VR9SE Review? While I thought it was a fascinating story about an audiophile's pursuit for high quality sound, it really wasn't a very good review. The was much writing about swapping equipment and tweaking settings, but very little about how the loudspeaker so... | |
| "Integrated Amp" Do I dare go there?????? Absolutely not! No wayyyyyyy! I cannot imagine a real audiophile using an integrated amp. Your epaulets should be torn off and your sword broken as you're banned from the local audio salon.You'll have to get rid of a pair of interconnects and you'... | |
| restocking fees From the responses to this post it's apparent that many audiophiles are shoppers as opposed to buyers. In the cold, uncaring dollar oriented world of sales shoppers are seen as a waste of time. |
