| It’s it just me or there are others. I suspect a bot. There's so much here that, from my perspective, simply doesn't add up. | |
| What happened to all the highend stereo shops @thefile I don’t understand how someone can buy an expensive piece of audio equipment and not audition it in their system first. Many places today, you buy it and your stuck with it. OH yes you can sell it on Audiogon or eBay. Reviewers are nic... | |
| Schiit URD CD Transport SOON? ...they do not have a release date No Schiit? | |
| Should I steer clear of class D amps @nosleeptilldownload Don’t Audio advisor and Crutchfield sell NAD? If so, you can get one with a trial period and refund option. Listen for yourself in your room and decide ! | |
| Stereophile and the love of hotel decor @dekay I'll admit that I do have a soft spot for 70's/80's Howard Johnson's carpet ... but does your room smell like fried clams???????? | |
| Am I defective? @edcyn Is it a blessing or a curse to be moved to great lengths by a piece of art, music or any other purely creative endeavor? Are purely creative works wastes of time or truly key to the survival of the species? As for the survival of the s... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? @onhwy61 Yeah, I’m aware of that. But somewhere along the line, the thought that EC also soloed in "Something" gained traction in my brain and never left. I have no explanation as to why/how. @tylermunns I was willing to accept that I was wr... | |
| Burn in vs perception @falconquest The conspiracy-minded would say the manufacturer is simply peddling snake-oil and taking advantage of people dumb enough to believe in fairy tales... or something to that effect -- the main point being that they are too smart to be ... | |
| Am I defective? Esthetic preferences are, by nature, deeply subjective. | |
| New DACs High End Munich 2023 @milpai Now I am really confused... I just watched the video and you’re right -- he doesn’t make that comparison. So, where did I get that idea? Perhaps it was a different reviewer? I hate it when this sort of thing happens and at age 67, it’... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? @tylermunns OK. My mistake. I was sure I'd read an interview with Harrison many years ago in which he said EC played it but evidently I must have imagined it! I agree with your assessment of the White Album. | |
| New DACs High End Munich 2023 @jjss49 OK. I appreciate the clarification. I certainly don't view such "talking heads" as "the last word" -- merely other sources for opinions that may or may not coincide with what my ears tell me. . Yesterday I discovered S. Huff is into s... | |
| New DACs High End Munich 2023 @jjss49 I only mentioned Steve Huff because I happened to notice his video comparison of the new Weiss to the T+A. If I'd known about other reviewers who'd made the same comparison, I would've mentioned them as well. I thought this might be of... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim That's a good one. I like the later "New Morning", too (an example of the sort of lesser known titles I've discovered in the Penguin). | |
| New DACs High End Munich 2023 FYI. Steve Huff is now declaring the new Weiss beats the T+A. You might want to check it out before spending considerably more on the T+A. I've had an Aqua La Voce for about 10 years, with no compelling reason to replace it. I don't understand w... |
