TOTALLY CONFUSED about analog
Read again. Then meditate about it. I'm trying to put you in the right frame of mind.Kind of like a Lifespring exercise...www.lifespringusa.com 
TOTALLY CONFUSED about analog
I took a class in freshman year in college: Sound Sense and Idea. A musicology class that is. We read the book, as well as another one I don't remember...You should read the book. I'm pretty sure analog will start making sense to you.From your pos... 
anyone familair with North 4.0 or Swans speakers?
I just ordered a pair of Swan M1 speakers...couldn't resist going back to near field listening. 
TOTALLY CONFUSED about analog
I wouldn't invest in a classical music vinyl collection, for sure. I've bought a few at record stores very cheap but it's not worth it, in my opinion. The noise would just get to me, especially as it gets worse with time.Pbb, have you read "What t... 
TOTALLY CONFUSED about analog
Pbb, I think Sedond has it right on the money. He's been telling me about the modded ART di/o for MONTHS! Then I read that the VMPS speaker was best of the CES. The DAC? Modded ART di/o. If one combines this with professor Van Alstine's argument o... 
Best CD scratch repair/cleaning machine
What about the polishers rental places use? I bet that's no too hard to make... 
TOTALLY CONFUSED about analog
Pbb, I hear you. However, I just do not understand that you can't find vinyl more musical. My 'amiga' knows nothing about audio and she can tell that my analog rig sounds better. So does another good friend who came for a listen. It was a no brain... 
Has anyone hooked satellite radio to their system?
The future is digital, just in the same way FM blew AM and the fact that we don't use Edison Cylinders anymore... 
TOTALLY CONFUSED about analog
Pbb, Sedond did not say CDs are compressed. He said that in some poorly produced CDs the music has ben compressed. I notice this unfortunate phenomenom on a lot of my salsa CDs as well as pop Anglo music. If there's something in my list of gadgets... 
Burn-in Device vs Burn-in CD
Man, the fish fillets will rot in the mail! 
Burn-in Device vs Burn-in CD
Hey Bob, sure...I bought a box full of walleye fillets a while ago (they weren't cheap). It's my favorite North American freshwater fish. If you recall from other posts, I am a hydrologist (went to college in upstate NY) plus I served in the Coast... 
TOTALLY CONFUSED about analog
Hey people,I'm not the only one for the 1200s. I've been asked in the TNT-audio forums to give a detailed narrative of the steps to modding the 1200. People in Europe, Latin America and the Orient are using modded 1200s.I carefully chose which TT ... 
Burn-in Device vs Burn-in CD
Kevin is SUPER cool! He's very knowledgeable of audio, a true music lover and a 1200 evangelist. I just ordered the tonearm fluid damper he designed for the 1200. When he said that to make any upgrade worthwhile from a modded 1200 one would have t... 
Burn-in Device vs Burn-in CD
Well Sean, you offered to burn in some interconnects for me so I could find out the difference in sound...I have plenty of free time these days.I'd eventually want such a device so that I can burn in my tonearm wiring and anything else I decide to... 
TOTALLY CONFUSED about analog
FZX, you've got it nailed--totally. Ken, you need to start where the previous post starts. I've posted similar before:Why are you going into analog? I would not recommend anyone w/out records to start analog, either...Just give it some thought and...
