| Donald Fagen's Nightfly - Love it or Hate it? I think it is great but I find the drum tracks very artificial and tiring...catchy/distinctive at first then boringly monotonous.If you read up on it......they went back and edited the drum track and replaced every beat with one "ideal" recorded b... | |
| How Much Power is Enough? Would having more power make much of a difference? No. Not for what you describe. I'm looking for an amplifier that will bring about a wide soundstage, tighter bass, and exceptional smooth execution of mirco-detail. -have you considered room mod... | |
| How do you determine how much to spend on speakers Redwoodgarden,Well said. | |
| Is Digital actually better than Analog? Shadorne - I say quality recording is dying because that is what the "powers that be" want. And ultimately the consumer doesn't care - and so it goes. We are both saying the same thing. Agreed. We definitely agree.The problem is not the dying of ... | |
| Is Digital actually better than Analog? The art of making an excellent recording seems to be dying. But the mainstream doesn't care - heck, they don't even notice with their poor quality playback systems. If you check pro audio forums you will see that recording/mastering engineers are... | |
| How many pair of speakers do you own? Counting stuff in storage as well (but not PC or car systems), 13 pairs of speakers. 1 set is Bose and should not really count but the rest are B&W or better... | |
| Is Digital actually better than Analog? Arthur, there is nothing quite like the sound of air rushing down the venturi pipes when you accelerate. Fuel injection sounds so mechanical and precise, regimented and digital. LOL. Nostalgia... the gasoline smell of a flooded engine on a cold da... | |
| Is Digital actually better than Analog? Pauly, I find your analogy of the carburetor and prediction of impending shortage of vinyl somewhat misplaced and unsubstatiated Vinyl has never been as available as it is now You are right I did not subtsantiate my remarks...but I suspect the wid... | |
| Is Digital actually better than Analog? Pauly,What a shame for those of you who dislike any form of digital, as the audio/video industry seems so hell bent on digital. DVD, Satellite and HD TV are obvious winners againt VHS and old analog signal modulation transmission like AM/FM etc. O... | |
| ATC active speakers, owners please give input I have owned active ATC's for 8 years - never a problem so far. They run Class A until 2/3 power. If you are not familiar with actives be prepared for a level of detail that some may describe as tiring or too forward. Also the bass response will b... | |
| How important is power response? Ojgalli,Billy Woodman believes it is very important. It is one of the main benefits of a dome mid range. The absence of an even power response in the mid range in most designs means that the much more dispersive bass and tweeter will tend to domin... | |
| Are there speakers like this? ATC speakers fit your bill exactly - second hand you may find a 50 or 100 close to your price. Much more dispersive than most other speakers (soft dome tweeter, 3" soft dome mid range). I assume you don't want a reflex port because you worry that ... | |
| Is Digital actually better than Analog? Does any digital step in the recording process ruin music forever? What about digitally recorded music that has been mastered to Analog (Vinyl) - is this better than straight CD?(I guess my question is directed to those that claim Analog is always... | |
| brass outlet covers...anyone try them? Sound good Has anyone considered bacteria? Some types of bacteria will break down petrochemical products, albeit very slowly. Theory: The cover acts as a drum head and amplifies the sound of the bacteria mulling about along the surface.Of course, brass is of... | |
| Analog experiment Pawlowski6132, "If you're on the fence about going vinyl and you don't have a big collection, stick with CD." I just can't understand why people say that. The whole digital thing is a conspiracy to get people to part with more money for less quali... |
