| Coleman Hawkins @frogman I have Cannonball Adderley with Strings record, a Japanese pressing and Charlie Parker with Strings, in a set of 6 LPs from Verve (1948-50, 50-51, 1952). I was listening to Charlie Parker with Strings yesterday that also included a live... | |
| Coleman Hawkins @frogman Thanks for the recommendations. I ordered The Hawk In Hi Fi cd just now. I have Body & Soul. This will be a great addition to my jazz collection. I am a late entry into jazz and I am still discovering many gems. My friend got me mos... | |
| Coleman Hawkins @scottya118 Appreciate your reply. While many sax players did recordings accompanied by string orchestras, Hawkins did not. At least according to one of my friends and a jazz record collector/seller. He said Hawkins did one with a string orchest... | |
| Audio Research Ref75 se Vandy 2Ce and AR Ref75se will be a wonderful pairing of an amp and speaker. Cannot say enough good things about both products and the companies. As noted in a post above, make sure your preamp has XLR/balanced output because 75SE accept only balan... | |
| Doesnt resistance mean same as impedance?? @emergingsoul I assume you know the difference between direct current (dc) and alternating current (ac). DC current has a constant amplitude and will not change with time. Amplitude of the ac current will change with time or frequency. Your ac pow... | |
| Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music @soix I think @audioguy85 is referring to adding separate sub-woofers to speakers, but not to those that are already part of the speaker system. Not only Wilson, but Vandersteens Quatro have built-in sub-woofers. Those are fine. He is questioning ... | |
| Subwoofer for music, how low? @jheppe815 I fully agree with our assessment of frequency ranges of instruments. Granted some pipe organs with 60 foot long pipes can go lower, most of the musical information is on and above 27 Hz. I don’t buy this theory about reproducing "l... | |
| How do you know when a stereo sounds good? It is like asking "How do you know if/when you are enlightened?" For a Buddhist follower, it is a difficult question to answer other than saying, "You know when you know." Jokes a side, let me try to answer from my point of view. I know my set... | |

| Why do all Mahler recordings seem too bright? loweride57: You hit the nail on DG. My digital front-end is not great, but should be okay for most recordings. I have Cary 303/200 with Burr Brown PCM1704 DAC and I also have two Audio research DACs, DAC2 and DAC3. DAC2 has Ultra Analog D20400 chi... | |
| Why do all Mahler recordings seem too bright? Mahler included funeral marches in his symphonies and also use a large number of brass instruments. So I am not surprised some poorly done recording sounding "bright." However, there are many Mahler recordings CDs and LPs that sounds well balanced... | |
| Better CD Sound: The Search Try an external DAC with Ultra Analog D20400 or D20400A chip with PLL clocking. Some of these DACs can be expensive and also very rare. There are several models available from Sonic Frontiers (SFD1 and SFD2), Audio Research (DAC1, DAC1-20, DAC2), ... | |
| Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth" There is lot more involve reproducing sound stage depth. First and foremost is the recording itself. Audio chain cannot reproduce "depth" if it not encoded in to the recording. Most of my classical music recordings have excellent depth or front-to... | |
| What Is The Most Romantic Song That You Have Ever Listen To? "We have All the Time In the World," Louis Armstrong in the James Bond Movie On Her Majesty’s Secret Service title track. This was towards end of Pops career, but I still get goose bumps. John Barry composed the love song "We Have All the Time in ... | |
