| Do You Remember Your First CD Player? Philips (Magnavox) CDB-473 back in 1987. Did not take the CD format seriously back then and still have the same opinion today. My TT sounds far superior. | |
| Best bit-rate for MusicMatch MP3? I use the Exact Audio Copy with Lame to convert MP3's for listening to on my computer as background music when I am in the mood while working. There is a great link I found for configuration of EAC with Lame and I suggest whoever is involved in MP... | |
| recommendations for Paradigm Studio 20 V2 Agree with both posters that sticking to the same manufacturer is your best bet. Mixing speakers in your setup could mean excellent sound or a disaster in terms of matching, the risks are high, unless you are some sort of a daredevil who wants to ... | |
| Favorite Ella Recordings Porgy and Bess - Ella and Louis.Just unbelievable in terms of performance and sonics - a true masterpiece. | |
| Is "live" music sound possible for under $1K Music that makes people vomit! Is this what every audiophile's aim is? I wonder! I certainly would not like to listen to his system.Live music and reproduced music are two different things, I am not saying one is better than the other but DIFFERENT. | |
| Album which you have listened to most? John,What is your opinion on the track 1 on album "Making Music"?Your post above in this thread mentioned that you bought Peter Gabrial's "UP" and you simply said "YUCK". As for Making Music and Primal Magic you went ahead and bought them! Why? Ho... | |
| Are Sub-woofers really for music? Making the decision to add or not to add a sub is easy. The diffucult part is to set it up properly before you decide whether it works for you or not. I recently became a believer in subs importance to the overall system synergy. One thing I reali... | |
| taming studio 100's Phizzer,I am not sure I can give you an idea of how the two subs would compare as I have not heard the pw-2200. However, many swear by REL saying it is one of the best for music. Some who did compare and whose ears I trust did say REL is superior ... | |
| Good ripping program - no compression Prpixel,If you want to compare the two I think you should have used a third program to playback on and not the Windows Media Player which may very well give you the biased results. If you remember in old days folks use to say that the cassette dec... | |
| Any one got better results than with EAC? Gonglee3,Glad to know that and appreciate your feedback! Hope it is useful for others as well who are into this. | |
| taming studio 100's Coonsider yourself lucky with little in your saving account as a lot of money can drive audiophools nuts and bananas. Enjoy the music now, when you have loads of cash to spare you can start to enjoy the equipment. | |
| Review: Philips Philips DVD-963SA CD Player Ears,Wow, thanks for taking time and giving me the tip, I sure will work on it and the first person whom I tell about the difference will be you!Thank you again, your consideration much appreciated! | |
| Album which you have listened to most? Privateparty,I agree with what you say. I happen to like some artists who are mentioned in this thread hence I may check them out, its worth the risk. OTOH some artists mentioned I cannot stand them so I will certainly disregard them. (By mentioni... | |
| Budget Subwoofer A good sub at $200 used will be hard to come by. Why force yourself to go that route? I sincerely suggest you save some more before you consider one, even used. $500 will get you something good, used. | |
| is a subwoofer for music a good idea?? Jla,You admit about its limited application yourself, that is the only reason I was not in favour. If in future the system is shifted to a slightly bigger room or if the system is upgraded the Quake will be inadequate for music applications. Quake... |
