Not wasting my time on new Digital

When is digital going to get the soul of music?
No,You may have a transport problem. I use my Genesis digital lens to ferret out transports with clock problems.I'm waiting for an affordable PC based tester so I can save results and take my laptop to test systems away from home. Now if you're ta...

Zaikesman, I'm not quite sure what your post means,Are you saying Analog LP's outperform 24 bit digital systems?Anyway, I'm not sure its important.If you want a cool experience that won't be a waste of your time. You should come to Baltimore and l... 
Not wasting my time on new Digital
Tvad,Although I don't think we are coming from the same point of view, and records are dead in my mind and simply hanging on to them as a valid current source of music is beating a dead horse no matter how good it was. They are not coming back. Bu... 
Not wasting my time on new Digital
The better digital gets, the more two channel becomes a problem. If you are not using Prologic II or trifield to listen too two channel CD's you are not getting the best digital has to offer. I know this will be disagreed with but digital makes 2 ...

Phil,Fidelity? It's why I listen to surround.What I hear when I listen to a surround system is all that garbage two channel leaves in front of the performers is stripped away giving me access to the instrument in a way that two channel cannot. Det...

Hey Phil, Thanks for the thorough responses,Let me give you an analogy to make something clear;Scotty Pippen and Micheal Jordan in their prime, could not beat a Division II college team by themselves.What you fail to realize in many instances, but...

213 Cobra "in music fidelity terms you've got nuthin'"So unwise, your choice of words. Harvard's School of Medicine and Bell Labs disagree, they say we've got more fidelity and musicality. They said it not me...like in the 50's and 60'sCDwallace i... 
World Cup of Audio
CdcWell the Anniversary editions surpass the System 70 in total acoustic output and equal the 70's in everything but the elaborate cabinet. Something about the 150's and the 15" woofer that just gets it done, but they are big so are not for everyo...
