| What is Musicality? Tonywinsc, I agree. I am the same way -- running lines and looking for small ways to improve the sound -- a silk pillow under the CDP helped a lot. I made a couple of plug changes a few days ago and the enjoyment factor went into the stratosphere.... | |
| What is Musicality? Well, you're all making very good points today, IMHO. Jax2 no apology needed. I think we're talking about the same thing in different ways, like a diamond with different facets. I think that the "studies" over a period of quite a few decades confi... | |
| What is Musicality? Jax2, I was not trying to elevate women or audiophiles in my comments. I was just trying to point out the different ways different people experience music. For me experiencing music in its wholeness is what musicality is all about. I believe that ... | |
| What is Musicality? Tiggerfc, I agree with you completely.Sabai | |
| What is Musicality? Onhwy61, "understand/comprehend" connote an intellectual or cerebral attitude toward music appreciation. I am not using the word appreciation in this way at all. I use the word appreciate to mean the ability to enjoy. Different people enjoy music ... | |
| What is Musicality? Byroncunningham, you make some very astute observations here. IMHO it is very important to differentiate between expertise and appreciation. It cannot be an a priori assumption that expertise necessarily means a greater sense of appreciation. The ... | |
| What is Musicality? Tiggerfc, you're as close to what I am saying as I am. Musicality, the music, is inside us. Getting lost in it and really enjoying the musical experience does not depend on the gear. But good gear sure can enhance the experience.Sabai | |
| What is Musicality? I think you have hit on a very important point, Learsfool, and so has Byroncunningham. Music is a whole, not a collection of parts or the sum of those parts. But musicians may be listening in a very different way. They may be able to appreciate a ... | |
| What is Musicality? Kijanki - I am not suggesting that at all. In fact, I agree with you completely. I have a good friend who is an excellent musician - a guitarist and singer. He has been performing professionally since the 1960s and has backed up many very well-kno... | |
| What is Musicality? I was happily surprised to wake up this morning to read all of the responses to the question that I posed to everyone yesterday. My question was leading in the direction of the importance of the inner person -- whose inner ear is undeniably "influ... | |
| Cambridge Audio Azur 840C vs EMM CDSA SE Hello, I think you may have missed my point. I am not interested in doing a demo with multiple units to hear the differences -- and then have to go to the trouble of selling off the ones I don't want. I know that I would hear a difference between ... | |
| Cambridge Audio Azur 840C vs EMM CDSA SE Hello, I appreciate your comments and observations which give me a precise analysis of the difference between these 2 CDPs. This is exactly what I was looking for since it will be a while before I can audition the EMM. I also appreciate your comme... | |
| Cambridge Audio Azur 840C vs EMM CDSA SE I am keeping all options open up to about $7000 on the used market. I rely on my own ears but have not had the chance to audition the EMM yet. I'm tied up for the next few months and may have the time to get to dealer at the end of the summer. The... | |
| Marantz PM 94 or something more recent ? I bought a mint condition PM-94 recently. A beautiful unit that produces a beautiful sound. It runs hot -- unless you have a small fan blowing across the vents on the top. Then it runs cool. Easy DIY to solve a potentially serious problem. Also, r... |
