| Cat damaged speaker, Help HEY, "wolf"- Look up a Vet on this declawing locator site: (http://www.localvets.com/services/declawing/) Ask them to educate you! I found twelve, in my neighborhoo, that are presently declawing cats. | |
| Cat damaged speaker, Help Haven't you people ever heard of, "declawing?" In 1978, my daughter got a cat for her birthday. It was declawed(front paws) immediately. After one incident, it was vigrously trained not to jump onto my turntable, and other audio gear. The cat's na... | |
| Cat damaged speaker, Help I suppose people incapable, or unwilling, to do(or learn to do) simple tasks for themselves, is what keeps our economy fueled(at least the repair/service sectors). Then again- there are A LOT of people out there, that should NOT be allowed to lift... | |
| Cat damaged speaker, Help Silicone will add weight to that section of the surround(not much, but...), and silicone does not adhere well to neoprene anyway. Get some Super Glue/Krazy Glue/cyanoacrylate adhesive, and dab a TINY bit exactly in the center of the cut, with the ... | |
| CD's vs Vinyl - Finally hear the difference There's the rub: Recording/pressing quality varys widely(whatever the format). Redbook has limitations, independent of that though. XRCD and HDCD both go a long way, to making Digital more listenable. Though many improvements have been made in the... | |
| Terrible/Inappopriate songs ... 'Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road' Talk about MINDLESS! | |
| CD's vs Vinyl - Finally hear the difference Best way to enjoy digital; Don't listen to analog. | |
| Soundstage depth and width The recording chain/venue/pedigree all sound superb. I'd be very interested in hearing the results of all that preparation and care, after subjected to 16/44 digital processing. I'll be seaching for the disc. Thanks for the tip! | |
| Soundstage depth and width YEP! I missed the, "on a CD" part of his question. The discs I mentioned are all vinyls. Redbook CDs just don't capture the piano's dynamics. I don't have any piano on HDCD or XRCD, to compare with vinyl, but suspect those formats would come close... | |
| Soundstage depth and width It's hard to properly mic a piano, given it's size/shape(the various sound propagation points), and the instrument's dynamic range. Move around a piano, and the sound changes quite a bit. A stereo pair, inside/facing L/R, reative to Middle C works... | |
| Soundstage depth and width Hello Mr M- It's been years, since I've listened to my philharmonic recordings. When I did, I did not expect to recreate an illusion of reality(the dynamics and scope of an orchestra being what it is). Acoustic Jazz, Blues and (in whatever genres ... | |
| 45rpm pressing of Fleetwood Mac Rumours No amount of adjustment can correct a poorly mastered album. This one(two LP, 45rpm version) sounds as though it were mixed, using a pair of Radio Shack Minimus 7's for monitors. | |
| 45rpm pressing of Fleetwood Mac Rumours If you REALLY want to hear the Fleetwood Mac Rumours album, at it's BEST; find a copy of the Nautilus SuperDisc pressing. It's a shame that early 1980's technology sounds so much better than what's available today, and that Nautilus is not still i... | |
| IC's amp-preamp & cd-preamp using Maggies? Work your way up the Synergistic Research, or Kimber lineup. I've got some of each(Synergistic's Analog Tricon, Tesla Apex, and various PCs/Kimber's KS-1130s and KS-1030s) in my bi-amped(Maggie mains) system. My goals have always been the same as ... | |
| Soundstage depth and width Mr M- IF you are interested in educating yourself; you might CAREFULLY study this article: (http://www.deltamedia.com/resource/stereo_microphone_techniques.html) Proper microphone technics CAN & WILL capture hall ambience and sound stage info.... |
