| REL sub setup I have a Storm III hooked up both high level, as discussed above, and low level for movies. I was told (by a guy a Tweeters which is why I'm asking) that the sub would automatically switch back and forth between these two inputs depending on the s... | |
| pioneer elite DV09 or DV47ai I have a DV-47a. Do any of you other owners have problems when the DVD switches layers? I have a good 1-2 second delay in the middle of every movie. In this regard, it is the worst DVD player I've ever owned. I am pleased with it in all other aspe... | |
| High End Myth Glossary. I think I was misunderstood Pbb. I agree with Marakanetz. I interpreted the comments of bob bundus to mean that the first post of this thread was all nonsense. Perhaps I misunderstood him. If, in fact, that is his position I disagree, I think that... | |
| High End Myth Glossary. Bob bundus, it must be very convenient to be absolutely sure that there are no absolutes in this world or this hobby. Your reasoning is truly impressive. | |
| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... I realize that we are limited by the original recording and then again by the copying of that recording. I realize that, no matter how good one's ear is and no matter what equipment they have, music out of ANY system will be sub-par in comparison ... | |
| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... Zaikesman, I really like how you phrased that, "live acoustic music can never really be accused of sounding overly bright or etched: it is what it is." I completely agree. I was not very clear in my previous statement. I meant acoustic and should ... | |
| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... Unsound, I don't quite follow your logic. I guess I would agree with you, I just don't see how that differs from what I said. It is all an act of expression. That could be an expression of perceived accuracy or simply something different and pleas... | |
| Help on windows 20gb 2ndGeneration Ipod No, I don't, but as an owner of a 30gb 3gen ipod, let me say that you have my sympathy. When it works it's great, but I've never owned a product that is more quirky. In fact, it wasn't until I returned two that I got one to work at all! My only su... | |
| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... Sean, I'm not trying to intentionally ruffle feathers here, but that being said... You claim to be pursuing accuracy and dislike either etched or sugar coated sounds then proclaim your love of a certain type of tube amp (although I don't believe y... | |
| Vienna Signature Series? Thanks for the input | |
| Stereophile confirms new gear is getting worse.... Right on Bomarc. I think it's high time that the vast majority of audiophiles stand up and admit that they are not pursuing accuracy...rather they are pursuing their own "personal sound". There is nothing wrong with this and I am surely doing this... | |
| Vienna Signature Series? This is what a web search turned up after using a translator from Russion to English. This should make it perfectly clear."3x we listened to Viyenna Of achoustichs to signature, truth for 1200 what that, with the transparent diffuser (polochniki).... | |
| Vienna Signature Series? Wow, where did you hear about this? I've got 4 bachs and was thinking of going Beethoven, Strauss or Mahler, but not before I hear these. Are they on the website? | |
| iPod Confessional I've ripped my mp3's using Exact Audio Creater and the lame mp3 decoder. I use the alt-preset-standard setting which produces variable bit rate mp3's. I think they average ~192kbps. It was explained to me though that VBR that averages ~192 suppose... | |
| iPod Confessional I also have had a 30gb ipod for a few months and think it's absolutely fantastic. A sacrifice in sound quality is so much preferred over no music at all. I also have the line out into my stereo, but it sounds so thin and lifeless, much more so tha... |
