| My Line Arrays and Dynaudio monitor - where to go Line arrays simply cannot image like a point source type speaker, however, they are good at filling a space as the sound falls off less rapidly. They are the ideal design for stadiums. | |

| When will rap music be less mainstream? Just picked up Vampire Weekend's new release - it was released yesterday - I have been liking their sound since their debut.Hi-Fi snobbery is an evil disease when it blinds us to music. It can affect us all to some degree and I admit to it too! On... | |
| DAC that re-clocks for under $1000? Does these DACs really "re-clock". I was under the impression they were jitter immune/rejecting but do not truly reclock. You are correct in that the majority do not "re-clock", however, the Benchmark DAC is truly "asynchronous" - so it is comple... | |

| When will rap music be less mainstream? Rap and hip hop have roots in funk. I love funk. I enjoy rap and hop also. I agree with Bongo - lots of great stuff out there! My favorite BEP numbers are not the hits you hear on the radio.The BEP cover (sampling) of James Brown's "Mind Power" is... | |
| Speakers for live piano performance I would add that if this were at all easy or cheap to achieve in a realistic manner then there would be no need to buy grand pianos (except for their aesthetic beauty). | |
| Speakers for live piano performance ATC PA 65's will do the job but you are talking mega-bucks and back breaking work to move them. I would be cautious about using home hi-fi speakers or studio mini-monitors for this task - if you happened to get aggresive on the keyboard then you m... | |
