| Reel to reel When you record good CD's to reel at 15 IPS, the playback is pure "analog". If you recorded a bad CD the playback would still be analog, but why bother, that's why I specified "good" CD's, once a bad CD, always a bad CD.This transformation of CD'... | |
| Reel to reel BTW, good CD's recorded at 15 IPS sound fantastic on playback; they just sound like the most involving music I've ever heard. I judge music by it's ability to transport me back in time; maybe even as far back as my first love in high school; musi... | |
| Reel to reel In regard to HI-Rez files, they're as good as the upper end of the cartridge, tonearm, TT thing; so therefore, if you do not have an "upper echelon" analog rig, the Hi-Rez will be better.This 15 IPS thing has become addictive, I just might go comp... | |
| Reel to reel There are two parts to a deck; the mechanics and the electronics; hence "Studer Levinson" might be the best home deck made.Some people think that buying a professional deck is best, but that's a big mistake because of the complexity of professiona... | |
| Reel to reel My mistake, both decks were 2 track. Possibly the Revox handles tape better.Is Revox, Studer-Revox, and they just leave the Studer off? | |
| Reel to reel Two track sounds better than 1/4 track, even if the 1/4 track is a better more expensive deck.After all of this conversation about decks, someone should be able to tell me why this is so. | |
| Reel to reel LP and CD both came from the "Master tape"; I think the only difference is obvious; one is digital, and the other is analog. | |
| Reel to reel In regard to information present, and not heard clearly; I recall being at a high end emporium and requesting them to play my CD of Santana's "Abraxas". This was my CD; I bought the LP Abraxas when it came out; to say that I was familiar with the... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I listened to, and enjoyed everyone's submission; I especially enjoyed Schuberts Japanese Cuban submission. It seems that movies used Cuban music in all Latin American movies without giving the Cubans credit, and that's why I thought the music wa... | |
| Reel to reel Here again Cleeds you are referring to my statement and my statement alone; no one else stated any thing that would incite you to make the statement; "That’s not to say that you might not prefer a copy of the original, but it can’t contain musica... | |
| Why Are HI-RES Downloads So Expensive? Erik, what is the current best cheapest DAC? | |
| Reel to reel The signal that comes out of the cartridge, goes to the "in" of the phono-pre; after the phono-pre amplifies this signal it leaves "out" to the "in" of the tape deck.On playback, the signal goes from the playback head to the reel's internal amp an... | |

| Reel to reel In regard to the playback being better than the LP from the TT; that does seem impossible; the funny thing is, I just enjoyed it without ever thinking about it, but now that this fact is being questioned, I'm forced to think about it.There have be... | |
| Reel to reel "Using the Otari at 15ips, the recordings were as good as vinyl but never better. How can it get better or more info from the source?"I assume that statement is directed to me. Since I operate in a vacuum, I assumed everyone got these same results... |
