Pieces of music that digital can't get right It looks like you’re comparing two completely different pressings. That introduces a variable that makes drawing any conclusion about the differences between analog and digital invalid.This. You aren't controlling for the differences in how the s... | |
Linn Audio You could say something similar of Meridian--how many discussions here? I think both of them lost their way a while back, at least w.r.t. the US market. | |
How good is your hearing ? And how do you know ? Is there a different between what I'll call sensitive hearing, and the physiological ability to hear the whole spectrum appropriate to one's age? | |
Quad S-2 http://http//www.quad-hifi.co.uk/product-detail.php?pid=32 These look promising, but I can't figure out why the stated low-end extension is so high....47Hz??? | |
Road trip to demo $10,000 speakers At Command Performance, they have three main rooms. Heard the Dynaudio Contour 60, Devore 0/93, and Kanta 2, in each of the rooms. I liked the Kanta best of the three, though it didn't make my shortlist. YMMV. | |

Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? Imagine a violin and a viola playing an identically pitched note at an identical volume. The more a speaker enables you immediately to notice the difference in how they sound, the more true-to-timbre it is.I'm not sure there's a word for the phen... | |

Focal Sopra No 2 vs Magico A3 I'd like to put sciencecop and Alan Shaw in a room together for a couple of hours, and be around when they came out... | |
Looking for ideas - new mono blocks for stereo music Right there in Canada, check out Audio Sensibility for all your cable needs, at real world prices. | |
Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? In terms of naturalness of timbre, the AN's hit it out of the park for me. But then, they do need to be close to a front wall, and ideally close to a corner, for maximum bass reinforcement. Judging by the number of photos I see of conventional s... | |
Morrow Audio re-design announcement: No more Ag coated Cu; Increased numbers of runs. How is this different from the frequent situation in audio where manufacturer X comes out with a v.2/mkII of their previous product, with a whole new wave of adverts extolling all the improvements they've made over the original? How do those who ... |
