| Patricia Barber In Concert I had to basically give up listening to her albums. The sound quality it top-notch but the pretension is near unbearable. | |
| $1500 bookshelf speakers with laid-back highs? If you're talking just a touch laid back then the Aerial 5s are very nice sounding speakers. | |
| Importancy of DAC's analog section I think both of you make excellent points. Leaving aside the subjective side, I'm curious about the measurements. If you take a look at a reference input vs. the output measured on the same scope, how similar is a scope load vs your own system pre... | |
| Arcam VS NAD Yeah, Arcam's build quality is definitely better. They thing is, if you're trying to decide between NAD and ARCAM it should be an easy choice. If you like a hyper-detailed sound go Arcam. If you want something kind of warm, not especially defined,... | |
| which external hard disc for music storage? WD makes some larger drives that are optimized to save energy and run quietly. They have a variable speed from 5400 to 7200 rpm. I'm think about buying a pair for a mirrored drive setup. Reviews say they're noticeably quieter and run cooler. I don... | |
| Krell 400xi vs NAD M3 vs Music Fidelity A5 vs Naim I think Mfsoa makes a good point for the other side of the equation. The Krell does sound different. I think one man's shouty is another man's well-defined. First time I listened to Krell, I thought it was too forward. Later, after listening a cou... | |
| Benchmark DAC1USB vs PRE1 vs Transporter I was in the same boat. I went with the Transporter. I already had a Squeezebox thus I didn't need the Transporter for the wireless capability. After doing a lot of reading, I decided the Transporter would sound better as well as limiting the numb... | |
| Transfering CDs to iTunes FLAC. Am I missing....? I'm in process of ripping my 600~800 CDs to flac now having bought a Squeezebox and recently added a Transporter. I use EAC. It's actually not hard to set up. The myriad number of things you can do are what make it a little overwhelming at first. ... | |
| Bose 901...really I never had a particular problem with the bass on the 901s. It was more the mids and highs - every pair I ever heard sounded like they had a blanket over them. They had a dull sound with no detail whatsoever. I thought it was because they had sacr... | |
| The Anatomy of the Acapella Violon - shocking find Atmasphere, what exactly is it that the longer wires cause? The resistance would seem negligible. Is it C or L or something else? I'm thinking about buy a tube amp as a second system and would be interested in hearing more about how speaker wire l... | |
| Bose 901...really I too listened to Bose 901s in the 70s and 80s. I thought they sounded crap every time. The only thing that made them notable to start with was they used to advertise the speaker had an unlimited power rating. So as a teenager in the 70s we all ki... | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? Rega Apollo. Or Naim. | |
| Which movie would you most like to see in HD Being a big fan of Blade Runner, I recently saw it in HD for the first time. Just astounding. Especially the opening sequence flying over the city with the gas flames and lights. | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? Yeah, Steve Morse is excellent. A friend talked me into going and seeing the Dregs back in a small auditorium back at Clemson U. in 1979. Good stuff. | |
| Macintosh vs Pass labs IMO the higher-end Mac's sound better than the high-end Pass amps. I've listened to both and although I had high expectations for the Pass stuff, I just wasn't impressed. Listened to a nice setup on some huge Genesis speakers. It did sound differe... |
