| Added value of separate server? @grannyrig @jaybeWrong. Moving or serving digital files is very simple and every working computer and every router moves digital data around at high rates day in day out with no errors (error correction and detection algorithms ensure this). The c... | |
| Earworms I would also add Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Red Right Hand this song sticks in my head also - Nick also picked up on the wave of industrial sound in the 80's - in his case triggered from association with a band member from Einstürzende Neubauten... | |
| Earworms Everything Counts - Depeche Mode. Saw that on BBC TOTP and couldnt get it out of my head - had to buy the 12" single. I think the repeated theme of descending dissonant chords and dark vocals and gated trashy percussion juxtaposed with the lyrical... | |
| Rega RP8 or Technics SL1200G That Technics TT is a legend - the 1200G is the best yet - technically outstanding. Relatively speaking, Rega is very good but is more of a cool looking design which is gimmicky rather than purely functional - not really in the same league. Profes... | |
| Surround Processor Upgrade to improve surround music? I have the same DSP. Have you calibrated with Audyssey XT32? I think the advantages of a good calibration are the most important - especially as you have different speakers in your setup which rarely works well. I like XT32 for surround and had go... | |
| Added value of separate server? No value in sound quality if you gave a good DAC. It just depends what is best for you in terms of convenience and user interface. | |

Simply stick one fuse in one ear and listen and then place another matching fuse in the other ear! I guarantee you that it ... | |
| Help a guy out? Renovating home theater system after 10 years and have a few questions. The LG 86SJ9570 amd UN65KS9800 are both LED TVs and both Samsung and LG are competitive - so not much difference. However the 86inch would be impressive because of the size. Great choice. | |
| Hi Fi Hi End Verses Pro Audio Specs In the last 15 or so years, Telarc used ATC SCM 150 in studio and SCM 20s for mobile work.After about 1978, many studios went away from JBL horns, ADS, Urei horns and installed mostly Genelec and ATC for mains. (Horns lost ground as amplifiers bec... | |
| What are the best loudspeakers under $4000 to re-create lifelike piano @whart I have the latest Nord 5. Like anthing it does some emulation better than others. If you go to the online library you can fine tune. For Rhodes emulation I prefer the Korg SV-1. The Korg SV-1 doesnt do piano as well as the Nord but it does ... | |
| Floyd-The Wall...which one? @jafant Doug Sax was amazing. He was one of the first to create an independent mastering business. He was the go to for countless producers and artists. An amazing ear and abilty to fine tune based on what he heard. More grammys than anyone else.h... | |
| Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses? Newsflash. I can hear the difference fuses make. However, I made an extremely interesting discovery. What I discovered is that you must use them in matched pairs. Yes! I know some of you will be skeptical but it is the truth! Only matched pairs of... |
