| Cables Are Crazy, what do you think? Checkout this study done on two different cables. I did not check everything but several of the results are exactly what I would have expected based on physics. The zip cord is not as good and one of the wel known disadvantages of thicker wires v... | |
| Frank Sinatra CD's with Great Sound? The Sinatra "Best of Capitol" box set. Came out in early 1990s. And Capitol Studios LA is where Robbie Williams recorded his Swing tribute to the Rat Pack with Count Basie Band. I promise you it is the real deal - superb drumming from Harold Jone... | |
| Bass traps? (to solve a suck out) My guess is that one panel will make no or just barely perceptible audible difference in the bass unless it is in the corner and you are physically less than three feet from it.I think that two panels and you will just begin to hear improvements (... | |

| Ultra high resolution Had you considered getting a digital delay or the like to lend a sense of distance to your recordings? And some binoculars...like at the opera! (Just kidding MrT - I do understand your desire for a real concert hall perspective and it is just as ... | |
| Is this when you have "arrived??" I have several Lp's of hers that are good Coffee house music but not that album....kinda thankfully! Understandable. I agree about the Coffee house angle.A movie that explores similar themes is "Dear Frankie" directed by a woman ( no surprise the... | |
| Stereophile claims about Magico They use "magic" - that is what is revolutionary. LOL. Stereophile continues to count on the gullability and lack of technical knowledge of people with high disposable income who like to believe they own "revolutionary" products. So what is new - ... | |
| Frank Sinatra CD's with Great Sound? All of you who enjoy Sinatra Live at the Sands;I can't recommend enough Robbie Williams Swing when you're Winning (don't be cynical => rat Pack fans will be floored by this production which is with Count Basie Band, an asbolute GEM and stellar ... | |
| Is this when you have "arrived??" I find Suzanne Vega's Luka is a tear jerker...you really feel for the tough but physically weaker woman being victimized by the bigger man. Yet she has courage - "Don't ask me", she says - knowing probably that her children might suffer if she inv... | |
| Ultra high resolution i will leave it to the more philosophically inclined to analyze the principle of trying to accurately reproduce an inaccurate recortding, as compared to editing an inaccurate recording. in both cases, the result is inaccuracy. MrT. You and many o... | |
| Bass traps? (to solve a suck out) This shows a before and after where a suckout at 75 Hz is completely removed MinitrapsThe entire demonstration is on the Minitraps Demonstration video Since this room is probably particularly bad -I don't think you can typically expect a dramatic ... | |
| Planar close to a rear wall? Quad for example? If you can completely absorb the backwave, it would probably work. Unfortunately I don't think that's realistically possible. The problem is, the two-foot round-trip path length difference (imparting a 2-millisecond delay) before the backwave ene... | |
| Have you noticed that... That's because you are more interested in the sound of boxes and wires instead of music. LOL. Yes we are all guilty as charged!! Some more than others but all guilty of that for sure. I'll go without music until I aquire that one piece and won't ... | |
| bi-wire cables on single binding post, sonic loss? I was just wary of negative effects that anyone might have experienced to be a show-stopper.Absolutely no negative effects. You can wire this up and it will work great provided you don't mix +/- or red/black on the four spades at the speaker end ... | |
