| Diana Krall Dianna has a very interesting talent and likes to explore it and use it. She IS married to Elvis Costello and I wonder what they talk about? . Her T Bone Burnett album (Glad Rag Doll) is completely different from her Live in Paris and I have ... | |
| Balanced cables From a high end PRO perspective, there is just as much difference between high end and low end XLR cables as there is in high end and low end unbalanced RCA cables. The cheapest XLR cables are absolute crap and roll off the top end and make the l... | |
| Audiophile Active Speakers? Macrojack: This post is ancient but I should answer it anyway and not ignore it. The ATC SCM19A would be a floor standing direct comparison to the PMC AML1 (6 inch 2way ). This won some awards this past year. The ATC passive version is a smaller ... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers Omar Hakim- yes! Another sweet heart guy who's great. | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers I've met Bernard Purdie and he is the nicest unassuming guy. Had dinner with him with another drummer I work with, Geoff Daking from the Blues Magoos (Geoff makes pro audio gear). I am surprised no one has mentioned Jeff Porcaro- did I miss it?... | |

| The Most Realistic Speaker Technology? HI DukeNice company BTW. Interesting designs! You are right, there are examples that defy the norm and prove almost any (and especially my) generalization wrong: certain classes of speakers are outside the target of low distortion and wide disp... | |
| The Most Realistic Speaker Technology? I think Shadorne has it-low distortion and wide dispersion (ie.consistent off axis) are top priorities, which eliminates horns, dipoles, electrostatic and good number of other technologies. Listening in a small room you are hearing more room than... | |
| 2017 vs. 1990s - How far we have come I'm with Slaw! Thriller was one of the greatest recording masterpieces of our time. Recorded by the great Bruce Swedien. Bruce was Quincy Jones favorite engineer, and recorded many jazz records before and after. Another is Earth Wind and Fire ... | |
| Your thoughts about ATC loudspeakers This idea that ATC is "not easy to drive" is an opinion, not fact. The fact is its quite easy to drive for the impedance curve does not drop down low as is the case with large number of passives. A reasonable amplifier can drive them fine. A la... | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? Ghosthouse, watch "The Wrecking Crew".http://www.wreckingcrewfilm.com/about.phpThey were actually the band we were listening to on all kinds of records. Cowsills, 5th Dimension, Beach Boys, Monkees, The Association, on and on. I am pretty thrilled... | |
| Your thoughts about ATC loudspeakers From experience in the pro world, a manufacturer/distributor like me has to play it absolutely straight on forums; never BS, no politics, zero opinion about anyone else's gear that competes with yours and actually try to share what you know that c... | |
