| You're probably listening too loud I find that 90 db SPL is generally most pleasurable but I do enjoy up to 100 db SPL continuous when Angus is playing three chord rock ;-)...some people forget that music is dynamic and exciting but I agree with those who say it should not be deafe... | |
| The Economy.. will hi end audio mfgs lower prices? Will there be a shake-out in high end audio? Will we continue to see $10k preamps and $30k amps? If the "banksters" keep paying themselves average bonuses of $112,000 then I expect $30K amps will continue to sell easily (especially if taxpayer ba... | |
| Which DAC has a deep wide sound ? Lavry DAC's tend to have wide sound. Basically anything with less than perfect phase between both channels will tend to give you a wider soundstage, as opposed to a tightly focussed narrow sound.Of course the biggest effect on wide sound will be y... | |
| Which DAC would fit me best? The DAC1 from Benchmark has a good headphone amp. I'd get that if I were looking for a cheap DAC to use with high quality headphones. I doubt you will find it used for much less than $800 though. | |
| How can you not have multichannel system Roger Waters and band performed the entire Dark Side of the Moon. Do you have Roger Water's Amused to Death done on his home studio using Q sound and ATC's? It is two channel but fun. | |
| Transient Attack and Amp Design Transients require large amounts of near instantaneous current without the voltage in the power supply dropping. Essentially the bigger a power reservoir you have the better an amplifier can cope with transients. It matters less how the power is s... | |
| The best "imaging" speakers? realistic dynamics are beyond current techology) It would be fairer to say that realistic dynamics is extremely rare in most small elegant tall home speakers but you do find realistic dynamics with some significantly large speakers and often horn... | |
| Can good speakers take edge off digital? Agree with Psacanli - I'd add that jitter is one of the culprits - so clean power helps as does gear that is low jitter. | |
| Need dynamic DAC Benchmark DAC1 is dynamic. | |
| Reducing PC Jitter I suggest you read this thread at Head fi. It may help - good luck. | |
| High density fiberglass as bass absorber? See this Acoustic coefficents.Basically thickness or volume is FAR more important that pcf. I'd make sure you are above 1.5 pcf and not more than 6 pcf and get the maximum volume you can. Since you want broadband absorption it is the volume/thickn... | |
| Musicians? Unless you've got financial issues or a tin ear, I can't imagine not getting the piano tuned every 6 months. Perhaps you play regularly. None of my family does - although the wife and daughter did for a while about 8 years ago. The wife has decid... | |
| More convinced of analog than ever I'm with Tvad in that I think it all depends on the recording as to what medium is better. That is my view also. | |
| More convinced of analog than ever Never said that, never meant to imply that.Then I suggest you re-read your initial post starting from the title "More convinced of Analog than ever" with its description of how you heard the latest best possible digital has to offer and found it w... |
