| Mach2Music mini and Amarra : Huge disappointment Foster9, I think you will just have to be patient a while longer unless you're computer inclined. Server based audio still needs time to develop.I've been hearing that hi res downloads are almost here since the late 90s and they are still almost h... | |
| What is Jazz? Everyone has their own definition of Jazz. There is probably some overlap in all definitions of Jazz but no two people's definitions are the same. Jazz is a genre of music in which personalization and evolution are considered requirements of playi... | |
| Exemplar vs Modwright Oppo 95 Mods? Peter_s, Could you elaborate a little more? A stock Oppo was compared to which modder's version? 33% of how many people did not hear a difference? 2/3 of 2/3 is about 44%, so almost half preferred the stock version and 23% preferred the modded ver... | |
| Mach2Music mini and Amarra : Huge disappointment Pettyofficer, I don't want to get you riled up but there is more good music available on cd and lp right now than you could listen to in your lifetime, if you are willing to keep an open mind and explore different genres. This music will be availb... | |
| "Kisses on the Bottom" by Paul McCartney Uru975 and Raytheprinter have it right. It is a lyric from "I'm Going to Sit Right Down as and Write Myself a Letter" and it does refer to kisses written at the bottom of a letter.I listened to the Amazon samples and I thought Paul's voice sounded... | |
| Warm Rich Lush Speakers...Recommendations? Dali MS or Helicon, BUT they are not as far to the warm, rich side as to sound thick and colored, which your post seems to be asking for.The Dalis are a little to the warm side with rich harmonics and textures. They are musical and easy on the ear... | |
| "Violinists blast holes in violin experiment" Audiotweak, I agree, and apparently the eyes are the most important after the ears. I wonder why some people choose to listen in the dark or with their eyes closed. Doesn't make sense does it? | |
| "Violinists blast holes in violin experiment" Larry,My question asks if once you have zeroed in on what the differences between cable A and cable B are, can you identify those differences if you don't know whether you are listening to cable A or cable B?I am not trying to attack you personaly... | |
| "Violinists blast holes in violin experiment" Larry, based on your experience doing A/B/A blind tests and no surprises, do you think that your expectations might have influenced what you heard? | |
| "Violinists blast holes in violin experiment" I don't know if the experiment was well designed or not, but it just seems odd to me that owners of very expensive violins and audio gear are so adamantly opposed to being asked to identify it without being able to see what they are listening to. | |
| Music Servers-Why so few? One reason may be that the record companies don't seem to be committed to cd res or better downloads. They're fine with mp3s but they would rather have a system where you only rent the music and don't own a copy. | |
| Pete Townshend sells rights to his music Pete has 2 personalities. One is the guy who made the great music with the Who. The other is a cranky, moneygrubbing ***hole who hates the Who, his fans and people in general. As time goes on we see more and more of the latter. | |

| Help Needed - Music Only System If your Onkyo has two sets of speaker output terminals (a total of 8 speaker terminals) you can connect your DAC to it and then connect it to your speakers. Don't hook up two sets of speakers to the same speaker out terminals.If you want separate ... | |
| Dali 400mkii or 800mkii? That's a lot of questions Steve. You might want to break it down into different posts.The Dalis are excellent speakers but they are designed for music. They might work well for home theater but I really don't know. They have a warm, easy to listen... |
