| Which Vintage CD Player To Use As A Transport? I’d have to buy them both. The Schiit DAC is $115.00. But this is Plan B and it seems like too much work. I think that I’m going back to Plan A and getting as much used CD player as I can get for about $200. The current frontrunners are the Cambr... | |
| Is Imaging Worth Chasing? mijostyn—"Ignorance is bliss." I couldn't agree more. For instance, to me, all vodka tastes the same. Once you climb out of the well, it's all the same. I have no favorites. If I put some time and effort into it, I'm sure that I'd notice the di... | |
| Is Imaging Worth Chasing? I’d love to know something about the engineering aspect of imaging. Some/most of the music I listen to was made by recording each instrument on a separate track. Often, each instrument is playing in a separate room. If nothing else, the singer is ... | |
| Is Imaging Worth Chasing? tony1954—ATC is my dream. I think that I'd go active but, still, I envy you. tony1954—You probably know that you can ATC for something like half-price in England. There's got to be a way to have a nice trip to London, ship those heavy speakers ba... | |
| Is Imaging Worth Chasing? I think my font is okay. Just looks small as I type it. | |
| Is Imaging Worth Chasing? sbank says " Your OP sounds like you're hoping we'll all chime in and tell that it's not worth it, because you don't want to set up your room in a way that will optimize the sound reproduction that your gear is capable of. " (Why is my font so sm... | |
| Is Imaging Worth Chasing? I have complete and utter faith in my speakers. zlone—Thanks for the tip. Moving the speakers apart is one of the few options open to me so I’ll try that. Toe-in worries me. The only time I’ve ever heard any brightness from the LS50s (which TA... | |
| Audiphile Press: Am I jaded, experienced, or has it declined? Way back at the top of this discussion, someone asked, “Is paper better than the internet?” As far as magazines go, paper wins by a knockout. The internet destroyed the magazine industry and gave us very little in return. Go to a newsstand, if y... | |
| Feets Don’t Fail Me Now pkatsuleas: When you’re right, you’re right. I’m sorry. I can’t take it down. I tried. Curious Jim: Yes, when I got locked out for some reason, I had to switch my name. If I was trying to be deceptive, I think that I could have done a little bett... | |
| Feets Don’t Fail Me Now curiousjim, you must be thinking of someone else. I've never used another handle. I've made fewer than 10 posts, lifetime. Which doesn't excuse me for politicizing this non-political forum. (Or at least, I haven't seen much that's political before... | |
| Feets Don’t Fail Me Now Ozzy, do you live in NYC? I thought this is the only city with enough lunatics to keep wearing masks in appreciable numbers but maybe I’m wrong. What can these people be thinking? In their cars, outside with the wind whipping past them . . . proba... | |
| Feets Don’t Fail Me Now Jason Bourne: Nooooo! The whole point of the story is that I’m done. My long adventures have brought me to this solution. I’m gonna stick. (For now.) Hilde: Browns Fan may know more about physics than anyone since A. Einstein. But in my experienc... | |
| LS50 + Sub Or Floorstander? Thanks for the input and the suggestions. Unfortunately, many speakers that I’m certain would solve all of my problems—LS60, Kef Reference Three—will have to remain the stuff that dreams are made of. | |
| A Note For LS50 Owners Update: I was being careful when I made my first post, which I thought was the responsible thing to do. But after more listening, I think it’s only fair to be a little more confident in my assessment. The speakers sound great. A few moments with a... | |
| CD Tweaks: An Update “I know it was ’82 because I remember the trailer I was living in at the time.” Better the Dead, Pharoah, and the van then 5th Ave. and 72nd St. Didn’t Owsley cook Pharoah himself? Or so you might have thought that night until when you final... |
