| Jazz Fans-- Name some of your favorite, less well known recordings @jasonbourne52:Good one ! @limomangus:I'm curious: what artists are included in the anthologies? @bdp24:I'm afraid I have no idea what the Buddy Holly quote signifies. Care to elaborate? ? ? | |
| 1K range phones that will work well with Schiit Jotunheim? @russ69:One speaker is partially blocked by a couch. Also, furniture placement precludes me from pulling speakers as far out from the wall as would be optimal. There's nothing I can do about this situation. In our next abode, I'll have a dedicated... | |
| 1K range phones that will work well with Schiit Jotunheim? @tooblue:OK, but I still don't know what you meant by "too much", regarding their presentation.If not "too analytical", then "too much", what, exactly???? | |
| 1K range phones that will work well with Schiit Jotunheim? @russ69:You mean because audiophiles can always justify buying something new... or ... ?????? | |
| 1K range phones that will work well with Schiit Jotunheim? @freediver:Looking back, you did.I just somehow missed that! | |
| 1K range phones that will work well with Schiit Jotunheim? @tooblue:Do you mean too analytical? | |
| Fidelity vs. Musicality...........Is there a tug of War? @millercarbon:Are you suggesting this for mods... or ???????? | |
| 1K range phones that will work well with Schiit Jotunheim? @tooblue:I'm sorry, but I don't know what you mean by "presentation wise". Do you mean physical appearance? | |
| 1K range phones that will work well with Schiit Jotunheim? @freediver: Thanks for your comments.RE: Focals, Chord is not a brand I'd ever use in a main system or with headphones, so that pairing wouldn't figure into my decision. I have a Jotunheim, which is why I worded my original post as I did. The HE6... | |
| 1K range phones that will work well with Schiit Jotunheim? @freediver:Thanks for your response. I've never heard of iBasso. The Sundaras are indeed widely praised but reviews have said they are bass-shy. That is the only thing that's kept me from buying them. I'm curious-- what didn't you like about the C... | |
| Fidelity vs. Musicality...........Is there a tug of War? @mijostyn:Thank you for your response. What you assert is certainly consistent with my experience. I started out with a really (in my room) edgy combo-- B&W's with Rotel and Creek components. After that my knee-jerk response was to go too far ... | |
| What 3 recordings from different genres do you and your wife/partner appreciate equally? And a great idea for a thread on your part, dayglow! Interesting what you suggest about most audiophiles' taste not being consistent with that of their wives. . . I will say that although our musical tastes are very similar, mine does not share m... | |
| Fidelity vs. Musicality...........Is there a tug of War? "It "moves" you or it doesn't ".+1This is what I go by but clearly it's not the credo for many posting here. I can't help but suspect it makes a difference if you actually play an instrument. | |
| What 3 recordings from different genres do you and your wife/partner appreciate equally? Actually, we have pretty similar tastes. Being a guitar player, I do tend to enjoy Rock and electric Blues somewhat more than she does. I never play Led Zep when she's at home! Picking just three titles for each genre is kind of ridiculous but he... |
