| I finally compared CD to vinyl and... I think that digital and analogue can sound quite similar yet each have their own strengths. Much of what determines what sounds "better" is up to the individual recording.Having said that, it was quite evident to anyone that listened to CD when i... | |
| One big subwoofer or two weaker subwoofers? El: First of all, i'm shooting for the 64" drivers that EV used to make. Who wants those "puny" 30 inch EV's when you can have the "BIG boy" : )The JBL's at Parts Express are designed to be used in a vented system. If i was going to spend that muc... | |
| SACD hybrids bad policy from Sony/Columbia? I would rather have ONE format ( either SACD or DVD-A ) and have all of the recordings fully optimized for that format than to have two different formats with neither of them working nearly as well as they could or offering the recordings that i a... | |
| Why Don't People Search The Forum Archives? Jeff: I don't think that Bose has offered any preamps since the mid 1970's. As such, i would say that any of the others would probably be a better choice. To be completely PC here though, you should probably listen to all of these in your own syst... | |
| signal generators and... Actually, i like Olde English spelling and "font" styles. I even have that type of lettering in some of my tattoos : ) Sean> | |
| Why Don't People Search The Forum Archives? I specifically remember Arnie and the gang at Agon wanting to compile a very thorough FAQ section. Maybe this is the "push" that they were waiting for : ) Sean> | |
| signal generators and... Analogue is actually the original spelling of this word. If you doubt this, take a look at this link about the word analogue and see which version is the original and which is a variant. As such, i prefer to use the proper spelling as it has so mu... | |
| SACD hybrids bad policy from Sony/Columbia? They probably didn't get the response in terms of sales that they were looking for and are now looking to recoupe their investment in remixing these discs. Rather than try to release older recordings that some folks already have duplicates of, why... | |
| One big subwoofer or two weaker subwoofers? Greg: My Dad's system is actually quite solid down to 35 Hz and rolls off below that. Given that he doesn't listen to pipe organ music or electronica, he'll simply have to get used to "natural" sounding bass. It may take some time, but after livin... | |
| signal generators and... For most people doing casual tinkering, digital is better as it leaves less room for error when interpreting the data. For those of us designing and / or repairing gear that need to monitor and follow trends in actual performance, analogue is the ... | |
| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... Uppermidfi: "Why do people only agree with Stereophile when it says something bad about some piece of stereo equipment. If they praise some piece of equipment everyone says they're wrong and that it sucks (Musical Fidelity is an example, but my co... | |
| Necessary Attire Nrchy: Are the spikes facing "out" of the concrete seat or "out" of the seat of the pants??? BIG difference : ) Sean> | |
| First pre/pro and hopefully last Theatergrand IV ???? When did they come out with that??? Sean> | |
| Why Don't People Search The Forum Archives? All good points here from both sides of the fence. Having said that, asking the same question in 2002 might not get you the same valid responses that you'll get in 2004. Not only have situations and people changed in that amount of time, so have t... | |
| signal generators and... KG: If you can hook up a cable from the line level out of your computer, you can download a program off the net. While this might not be exactly what you were looking for, it might give you what you want with little to no further expenditure. Even... |
