| Enjoyment No it doesn't. Too much personal preference keeps people from even looking for overall accuracy. Everyone has likes and (less often) dislikes that tend to cause them to look for certain details in the music over other aspects of the sound.People t... | |
| Fidelity It's not a stupid question. For it not to be an ignorant question, you would have to know the answer.I think accuracy and 'high fidelity' is generally the same thing. High fidelity was coined to describe a system that was very close to the origina... | |
| What is the benefit of low efficiency speakers? Okay, I asked the question wrong! I was almost asleep when I did it so please forgive me.The question I have has nothing to do with efficiency. What I wondered about was the load of the speakers; or why are some speakers designed at a nominal 8 oh... | |
| Neil Young Song "Let's Roll" where can I find It? ASDF, it's hard to beleive a supposedly mature responsible adult could fall for foolishness like that! The phone call from Todd Beimert(?) was recorded. His wife listened to it later. The evidnece is overwhelming, but then again their are those Na... | |
| Upgrading Power Supply Caps It stands to reason that even though they are not in the signal path that upgrading caps with something better would still help the sound. Unless you don't think upgrading PCs, outlets, and wiring make a difference. If you don't, then it's a waste... | |
| Review: Krell FPB-700cx Amplifier You said: "Soundstage was small, and lacking in inner detail and clarity, bass and treble were both thin, and rolled off, but it still sounded pretty reasonable."What do you consider reasonable? | |
| The effects of corporate music AOR is Album Oriented Rock. The stations that played it would play any track from any LP, not just the ones that made someones top 100 or whatever. | |
| The effects of corporate music Slappy, I never thought I would disagree with you, but the bands you mentioned are all very negetive and hateful. I remember liking some of the angry music from my own youth like The Who. Behind Blue Eyes among other, but they were not nearly as n... | |
| Are There Any Inherent Advantages to Class A amps? The Krell FPB amps are class A to their full rated power. The sustained plateau bias helps to prevent (through magic and witchcraft) the amp from running as hot as Class A amps have in the past. It is true that Krell amps before the FPB series wer... | |

| Correlation: Money and Good Sound Why is that people can justify what they spend on audio equipment, but anyone who spends more than they do is an idiot? What is the correlation between being able to afford better stereo equipment and not being able to tell that it isn't any bette... | |
| Upgrade B&W speakers or MArantz Receiver? The amp costs less and opens the door for you to transition more easily into seperates. You should really recognize a bigger improvement from that than going to a better receiver.Save the extra money to put towards speakers or the most over looked... | |
| High-end Universal...Why? ? I am very fond of my tail and do not appreciate your mockery of those different than yourself. This is by far the most blatant tailism I have witnessed on AudiogoN and I think an apology is due to all of us for your lack of feeling, consideration,... | |
| Is this Sony CDP still good???? Go for the upgrade! I wouldn't cross the street to get a free shanling. I won't buy things made in China.As long as the basics or guts of the sony are still good there's a lot you can do to improve it and have it last for many more years. |
