| audio mirror dac Clio09, Sounds interesting - let me know how it works out! I will read up on the link. Just make sure to backup your hard drive ;)Rob | |
| Can HI FI components really make music? Newbee is right - you won't be fooled into thinking it sounds just like live music. But you have a much better shot at getting closer with a TT than with a CD player. Rob | |
| audio mirror dac LOL Clio you're not helping...Rob | |
| CD...then the SACD...all over again Justin time, I don't have an Ipod, and I don't use my hard drive in my hi fi system. I was talking about the target market "most of the population" for Sony, Phillips, etc. to make products that the market will demand, and that demand will be base... | |
| An observation about "Modern" classical music. As far as modern classical music, I am referring to the new stuff - not the early to mid 20th century stuff. I enjoy and can relate to Copland - I enjoy John William's compositions for different movies and other composers. I even like some of the ... | |
| Best of Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan Look at Verve unmixed ($5) and remixed ($15-17). They have 3 versions - they include a mixture of all the above artists on Verve remixed 3 or unmixed 3. Rob | |
| An observation about "Modern" classical music. Good discussion by the way. It's nice to see a thread about actual "music" and not equipment on Audiogon. Rob | |
| CD...then the SACD...all over again Oldpet, Some people use hard drives as the source. I'll let them comment on that. I was refering to the general public though if you were asking about my statement. Most of the people I know don't have seperate preamps. Rob | |

| Auralex acoustic form. They are great but expensive. I think it's some of the best stuff out there for what it does; however, I think you could save a bunch of money and get the same stuff from eBay (type in "acoustic foam") for a fraction of the cost.I have 1" foam (Au... | |
| CD...then the SACD...all over again Justin time, Well we agree then that most audiophiles enjoy LPs (its my favorite) and SACD (although I hear a lot of them afraid to make the plunge due to the obvious uncertainty so maybe it should be LP and redbook). We disagree about the futu... | |
| An observation about "Modern" classical music. jsujo,I'm sorry you didn't understand my post; I thought it was pretty straight forward. I didn't see anything in my post suggesting any career changes. And frankly, that's up to them what they do. Classical music from the past used typical form t... | |
| CD...then the SACD...all over again Justin time, My question was for discussion purposes. I have no desire to go through the hoops of contacting Sony to ask them about future formats. I was addressing the mentions of Blu-ray being the next big thing. I don't see any disk format bein... | |
| CD...then the SACD...all over again No one has come up with an answer to my question yet: If everything is moving to embedded hard disks (ipod, etc) which will be downloaded from the internet, then why would blu-ray or any other "disc" format be the next big thing? Rob |
