| Are my ears just fooling me? I am always dumbfounded of how the sax fills the room with this amazingly warm and low "buzz" if you will. I assume you are talking bari sax as this can hit about 65 Hz?I can confirm that Tower of Power Soul Vaccination Live is a good recording t... | |
| Are my ears just fooling me? Try the Sheffield Labs drum track recording - close your eyes and listen. If that sounds like somebody playing on a drum set with you in the room then stop worrying.The biggest difference between live music and live instruments is dynamics and hig... | |
| Best Rock Drummers Check this out this outAlthough everyone tends to focus on fills and athletic solos the reality is that the main job of a drummer is to groove. It is much harder to achieve a groove instantly and consistently than it sounds - few can do it as well... | |
| Best recording audiophile level albums of 2010 Has any one heard the Blueray audio only ( MoJo ) . Still waiting for mineYes and the sound quality is awesome but no Alan Parsons SFX - it is just the band playing live with no overdubs sounding just like they do. If you like JJ Cale as well as ... | |
| Do you listen alone or with guest s I like to listen with friends but I prefer to do some things by myself. | |
| Best recording audiophile level albums of 2010 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers "Mojo" and a new deluxe edition of "Damn the Torpedoes" are both available on Blu-ray audio in 24 bit high resolution. Audio quality is 10 out of 10. You can also find Damn the Torpedoes on HD Tracks. These are pr... | |
| Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green The great thing is that young musicians still like the blues so there will always be more to enjoy - like this talented young man Kenny Wayne Shepherd | |
| Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green I like all of the names mentioned but lets not forgot Stan Webb | |
| Live vs. recorded Jim,I think you may have hit the nail on the head - live musicians have the freedom to vary things and the little twists and nuances are perhaps what I enjoy so much (or not if the band does not groove well).Perhaps this explains the appeal of liv... | |
| Live vs. recorded Here is what I mean.This poor quality audio youtube clip is just awesome (to my mind)Dave GarfieldI enjoy this kind of jammin' much more than the same slick song on the studio album. So call me crazy but I really like the "live" sound. | |
| Live vs. recorded The Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Live Anthology box set (4 CD's) proves that live can sound just as good as a studio production. I suspect that many pop/rock bands simply cannot deliver the carefully crafted, dubbed and over-dubbed polished p... | |
| Live vs. recorded I much prefer live recordings. The Blu-ray of Tom petty at Soundstage is awesome quality - both video and sound is 10 out of 10. | |
| The British Sound If anything it is more likely that British homes are smaller and the treble is what attenuates most with distance. The closer you are to the speaker the less treble you need.The other possibility is the Boom Boom Tizz factor - simply put there is ... | |
| does a subwoofer kill stereo sound? Here is a little more why I believe resonance and THD is important in ultra LF.Resonance is important because of "masking". Masking is what is used to create lossy MPEG files that sound almost identical to lossless files. Masking is the well known... | |
| does a subwoofer kill stereo sound? There is no need to spend lots of money on a "state of the art" amp to drive a "state of the art" sub. Disagree. Most subs (I mean 99%) simply distort so badly that they ruin the sound (at least at usable SPL's in the ultra LF range of 20 to 30 Hz... |
