| The Billy Joel Interview Billy who? | |
| CD/SACD player Under $4000 Under $4000? good luck! | |
| New Rick Beato interview today... This article is a favorite of mine. | |
| Nordost vs Shunyata speaker cables- and the winner is . . Did you switch back and forth yourself or did you have someone else do it, without knowing which was which? Did you level match? | |
| What happens when you stop letting streaming apps pick your music? OP, Thanks for the writeup, genuinely interesting to see someone trying to attack the popularity-bias problem head-on rather than just tuning it. A few questions before I try it: What's actually happening under the hood when you say "no AI"? If i... | |
| Are we training our ears right? Why would a reviewer need to learn to listen that well if it was not pertinent to the listener? | |
| From Merlin TSM bme to Studio Electric M4 @yogiboy Yes, you're right. My mistake. I've had not had a problem with placement with the Fritz and I've not heard any "port effects" (such as chuffing), so perhaps the OP might still consider. But thanks for the correction. | |
| Expanding the Class D Conversation: How Would You Characterize Their Differences? @logistics In my experience, limited, I hear discussions about the sonic character of Class A and Class D. I don’t hear discussions about the character of Class A/B. You’re right that they’re topologies and there’s a lot of other factors involve... | |
| Expanding the Class D Conversation: How Would You Characterize Their Differences? @larsman LOL! Be well! @bartsw -- I've not read the Vatican's audio review literature yet, so I'm suspending judgment about it. But seriously -- a guy who claims to talk to the dead for people who pay him on the internet -- versus some of the ser... | |
| Expanding the Class D Conversation: How Would You Characterize Their Differences? @doni link? @larsman We should agree to disagree. In my way of thinking, someone who claims to talk to the dead and takes money for it is doing two separate things worth naming. First, they’re monetizing other people’s grief and wishful thinkin... | |
| From Merlin TSM bme to Studio Electric M4 @crn3371 So...I haven't heard the Merlins myself, but based on what you're after—love midrange and soundstage, want more dynamics, need acoustic suspension for close-to-wall placement—Fritz's speakers might be the ticket. I have the Carbon 7 SE ... | |
| Expanding the Class D Conversation: How Would You Characterize Their Differences? @larsman If you found out that your doctor also had a website promising to communicate with the dead for money, would that affect your confidence in their opinions about scientific matters? For me, it would. I think the analogy with audio is imper... | |
| Expanding the Class D Conversation: How Would You Characterize Their Differences? My sense is that Steve Huff raves about everything. He also sells contact with the dead. I kid you not. This is why I have no reason to ever bother listening to him about audio. He's a charlatan. Huff's website: "Each month I call out to names of... | |
| Expanding the Class D Conversation: How Would You Characterize Their Differences? @doni LAIV is near the top of my list to try. For me the main competitors are these: $7850 AGD Audion Mk. III monoblocks -- tried it and really liked it. Bit pricey for me. $6300 Atma-Sphere monoblocks -- interested but only one model, not upgr... | |
| After a while it’s just sounds. You seem to enjoy pondering such things, I simply ignore. Clearly, you don't ignore. Try actually ignoring. Give it your best shot. We're rooting for you. |
