Interesting film, "The Distortion of Sound." The video spells out the death of music. I couldn't agree more. I would think that companies like Sony would promote events like the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest have big booths and sell hi quality CD's. I guess that is not were the profit is. Profit... | |
Interesting film, "The Distortion of Sound." Thanks for the heads up on this film. So true it is. Most of the artists interviewed describe the loss of emotional content with the low fi recordings. I guess when we listen to systems we should be listening for emotion. | |
Sloped baffle I have a question. If an 18kHz sound left its' source and a 30Hz sound wave left its source at the same time. would they both get to the listener at the same time? | |
Most overrated audio manufacturers? Elizabeth Sounds you are getting a bit cynical. Easy to do isn't it. I used to work for a big hi fi shop in Denver back in the mid 70's. 8 tracks were just leaving and cassette tapes on the way in and vinyl running strong. The interesting thing is... | |
Most overrated audio manufacturers? It is amazing how many there are. Those companies that promise improved sound and advanced engineering. All you get is shiny drivers bigger and more complex crossovers. Less cohesion, and muddy bass. Having said that isn't that what we in America ... | |
What happened to Audio Aero? I was a dealer for Audio Aero. Very nice gear from France as I recall. I met the owner/designer at the CES Show in Vegas years ago, thinking about 2004, they were showing with a pair of speakers that I mistook for Sonus Faber but they were actuall... | |
Sloped baffle Simply putting the voice coils in the same plane does guarantee a cohesive and coherent sound. Drivers that are placed close together are just as important for a cohesive sound.It is equally important to have a bass driver that is as fast as the m... | |
HELP Musical Life basic Turntable I THINK IF YOU TYPE IN ALL CAPS YOU SOUND SO MUCH MORE LEARNED. NO DOUBT YOU ALL AGREE .. : > | |
Sloped baffle I think there is a lot of hype around this issue. A lot. If you have floor standing speakers and simply adjust the spikes so the front is slightly higher to accommodate your sitting position the you may have it. Is this just all a bunch of hype? A... | |
Which high power SET You might consider Japanese Triode. They have a nice TRX-M845 SE amplifiers. May be a little to much to spend to drive your Harbeths. | |
$6000 budget question There is a pair of Wilson Benesch Curves for sale. Cabinets made from Carbon Fiber ( none of that mdf crap ) plus minimum cross over so your quality amplifiers will be fed directly into the midrange and woofer. No " pseudo engineering here. | |
Care to recommend a preamp? I am selling a deHavilland Ultraverve 3. Should crush the competition. | |
Meitner versus Playback designs You might check out the Bricati M1 as well. A little less money and perhaps a lot more music. | |
Fast forward 25 years, what will audio be like? There will be a bunch of lonely old men, with tinnitus staring at a light bulb they think is a tube amplifier playing music. | |
sound proof floor - practical examples? I would go with monitor speakers and a sub woofer. At night you can lower the output of the sub. Keep it simple. Or you can pour 3" of light weight concrete over your existing flooring. Then you can go with monitor speakers and a sub woofer.Speaki... |
