| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @mosler666 Many thanks for the clarification. While I've not measured the bass extension in my room, I'm confident it does not remotely approach 18hz. | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @bdp24 I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiments about "show offs", which is a syndrome that appears to affect mostly Rock players. There are Black Soul/R&B Tele players we are surely failing to list, here. The Tele was a favorite (prefer... | |
| Intergrated Amp suggestions for B&W 805d4 I wonder how many threads have accumulated since this forum's inception started by B&W owners trying to make them listenable. . . I was one, way back when. | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. ... I mean, he combines emotional intensity with chops. | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @bdp24 Kudos for mentioning Kenny Vaughan-- very tasty player, indeed! You neglected to mention the Hellecasters-- John Jorgensen, Will Ray and Jerry Donuahue. Their "Escape from Hollywood" CD is one of my favorites. They are not just technic... | |
| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @kingbarbuda "I don’t think it ads any color to the sound that I can tell. But there is a lot of factors at work here." Agreed-- it's never merely about one component but how it behaves as part of a specific system. | |
| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @mosler666 Thanks very much for your comments, including the warning about its sound prior to burn in. I don't have much flexibility in terms of speaker placement so I hope that's not going to be a sticking point. This is not an issue I've enco... | |
| Does Anyone Buy Schiit for the Sake of Schiit? If someone has been sold a faulty component and the manufacturer has failed to make it right, the buyer is fully justified in complaining. But to phrase a question as though it's simply soliciting opinions when the language employed already sugge... | |
| Does Anyone Buy Schiit for the Sake of Schiit? Seems to me , this type of thread is always going to attract guys who have a grudge or else an unfounded bias or have heard something negative somewhere . . . they're happy to pick up a rotten banana and hurl it whatever the brand in question mi... | |
| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @jafant Bet you thought I'd never make up my mind! ;o) | |
| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @jaymark Good to know I'm not the only one who's had issues with that aspect of the RS2. As for synergy, it's been my experience that we can never really be sure how components will behave together until we actually hook them up, press play/dro... | |
| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @charles1dad Terrific! Thanks for dropping in, Charles! | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @djones51 Just to clarify, I'm not advocating that Clapton's shortcomings should be excused or overlooked because he's a famed musician, merely pointing out that nearly everything in this world is a mixture of opposites or put another way, deepl... | |
| Tonality of Jay's Transport? @jaymark My aim is to balance the two presentations (voluptuous vs. analytical). I've tried gear in my system that has pushed it to one extreme or the other, on various occasions. I believe it's just as worthwhile to hear, first-hand, what we d... | |
| God doesn't need to know what time it is. @djones51 "Then again, I'm not wholly off the deep end with the conspiracy theorists and racists either." Something you and I have in common, then. |
