| Best Inexpensive Subwoofer Maybe it's my imagination, but we seem to be living in the golden age of subwoofers. IMHO, the economics of high end loudspeakers are really being transformed by these developments. I agree things are getting incredibly cheap now that most everyt... | |
| AC/DC Black ice Bongofury,I looked at Capzles - neat stuff - kind of like Time Machine or iphoto on mac taken to the web - what a great tool for pulling everything together. | |
| what do you know" Al,There is another way to look at it. Since technically speaking there is no reason to assume one cable should be any better than another (given your caveats on gauge, properties etc.) then one can conclude that differences are most likely due to... | |
| Speakers that reveal bad recordings? Not for me. Why is it ever desirable to have speakers that simply reflect whatever they are fed, for better or worse? I suspect this is because, for a few folks, that is the idea of High Fidelity. High Fidelity = Highly Faithful = Accurate Reproduction of th... | |
| Cambridge Audio 840C plus Benchmark DAC1? I then tryed using the Benchmark Dac with my old Onkyo 5 disk changer using the optical out. Was hoping it would sound the same as the Cambridge because the Benchmark might just fix any jitter etc. Contact Elias Gwinn at Benchmark - he may be abl... | |

| Room Acoustics question: This room is an excellent size. See my system I am about the same size. You need treatments though but nothing really needed for near reflections of midrange/treble but you will need mostly stuff to tame the bass and mid bass - think large broadba... | |
| MBL 101E placement in room Does the quality of sound really degrade that much if I place the speakers at the minimum 2.6ft from the back wall? YES. Here's a random idea, can I place the speakers in the middle of the space, between my living room and dining room? Yes that i... | |

| AC/DC Black ice Ozzy,Springsteen uses Bob Ludwig for Mastering - Bob uses Eggleston Ivy's (his own custom design) - might that explain it? ;-) Magic was particularly bad. Anyway if you use Egglestons for mastering...just kidding ....but it is true that Bob Ludwig... | |
| 16 Bit vs. 24 Bit for Mac OSX To the first post, 24 bit and 16 bit make a difference. It did on my laptop using foobar and changing the foobar setting from 16 to 24 and back. If the original data is redbook and this makes a difference then it is likely digital volume control ... | |
