| the sound of massed violins in classical orchestral recordings I'm more asking a question than making an assertion. In the string section of an orchestra how in sync are the musicians when using vibrato technique? I imagine that there would have to be some variation between the players which would result in... | |
| Think fast: What would you take? a policeman’s job is only easy in a police stateBeing a urban police officer is a very tough job. Our society assigns them the task of dealing with people and issues that most people don't even want to acknowledge. Things like homelessness, drug... | |
| Msb dacs why not alot of postings I had one for about a decade. It was a wonderful sounding unit and it only cost $7k after all the upgrades. Now their pricing is much, much higher. They probably still sound wonderful, I imagine. | |
| Think fast: What would you take? Other than the paranoiac ravings, there is some good practical advice in this thread. If you have time to prepare get some cash from the bank. Make sure you have your medications. Pet supplies, if needed. | |
| Mahavishnu fans only On "My Goal's Beyond" one side is a band featuring McLaughlin, Billy Cobham, Jerry Goodman, Charlie Haden, Airto and others. The other side is solo McLaughlin. It''s his first recording as Mahavishnu John McLaughlin. | |
| Sub Question. One higher quality sub or two lesser quality? (Rythmik vs HSU) At this point it's moot, but do Klipschorns go lower than the Cornwalls. If so, get a pair of of the corner horns and only run the woofer sections. This setup would provide excellent matching of dynamics, speed and timbre. | |

| TV Mounted above fireplace mantel - neck strain? As a decorating motif it's a cliche. As a practical matter I know people who say it works fine. | |
| Help me understand "the swarm" in the broader audiophile world Many of the issues addressed by multi-subwoofer setups are also addressed by dipole bass designs. Dipole systems may not go as deep, but they can be more accurate. | |
| Sub Question. One higher quality sub or two lesser quality? (Rythmik vs HSU) First, why do you want to add subwoofers. Second, why wouldn't you go with open baflle subwoofers? The GR servo subs are around your price range if you're willing to build the frames. | |
| “BLOCK” Function? It's beyond ironic verging into the realm of satire. | |
| The psychological factor It sounds like your new amp has a different input sensitivity than your old amp. Then again, it could be something else. Without the name and model of the components I'm just guessing. | |
| How much space between cables is enough? I tried the rubber band thing for about a decade. I stopped using it, but later found out my cables were probably picking up ripples in space/time from merging neutron stars and black holes. Yeah, this was before LIGO. My system was way too ana... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Slaw, you need to listen again without trying to hear other influences. "Kiln House" is pure dual personality Fleetwood Mac. Some songs are Jeremy Spencer and the others are Danny Kirwan. Compare it to "Then Play On" where it was dual personali... | |
| My venture into the world if demagnitizing vinyl. Your results may vary. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Exactly how did you make the comparison? I assume you listened to the record, did the treatment and then played the record again. I can only guess at the time lapse between playings. As a further experiment... |
