Can I Trust The Music Room's Product Description? TMR is a good company but they are not above reproach. They do get things wrong including their condition ratings. So let the OP have his say. If we agree they are a good company, one complaint won't hurt their business. | |
TAD Speakers letitbe, You can usefully read about a speaker only so much. As you said, they get reviewed frequently, but ultimately you have to listen to it, preferably in your own system (good luck with that), to know if it’s right for you. There were a Comp... | |
TAD Speakers Which TADs are you interested in, letitbe? TADs are excellent modern speakers, that is, musical but uncolored, very transparent. Their beryllium tweeter reproduces sound way past the range of human hearing, so there’s no softening of high frequen... | |
Why do we listen to sad songs? Interesting article! Here's a little bit: Mario Attie-Picker, a philosopher at Loyola University Chicago who helped lead the research, found the results compelling. After considering the data, he proposed a relatively simple idea: Maybe we listen to music not for an ... | |
How many of you streaming? I have no problem listening to a whole album streamed. I just select an album, put down my tablet and listen till it's over. Sometimes I'll read about the album or read the lyrics while listening. And sometimes I find an album I've selected doe... | |

Ripping CD's I can suggest that you get EAC (Exact Audio Copy), a free download, for ripping your CDs. It’s the best free ripping software out there and has been for decades. I’m not so sure about burning software. Search for best free cd burning software and ... | |
Does streaming music equate to high concert ticket prices Ticket prices have been going up steadily for quite a while before streaming became big and hit ridiculous levels a while back. The big-name bands are charging what the market will bear and have learned that there are a lot of people with more mon... | |
Can This Really Matter? I think your SSD is OK where it is. Of course you might get better sound with a dedicated audio server, but then you probably wouldn’t need the Bryston. The Bryston is probably made to optimize sources like yours. I agree a better USB cable is a g... | |
Grimm MU1 Roon Question Do you have a Windows computer? I just figured out how to do it with one of those. | |

Best Speakers for Listening Bar I am building? First off, I have never heard the speakers I’m about to recommend, but the MBL 101E might be worth consideration. They radiate sound in all directions which might be a plus in positioning in your large space. Their unusual appearance and technolog... | |
Does anyone know where this J. Gordon Holt comes from? I know that one of the things that my dad was most frustrated about was that when Stereophile was sold to Pearson, Larry Archibald and John Atkinson both got extremely well paid for it and my dad got nothing. Sorry to hear that your dad was tre... |
