| An analog question for those who record Davidnboone, Way back in the 80's I owned a Sony superbeta vcr. I was having a party so I recorded quite a few songs off of cds onto a beta tape so I wouldn't be bothered with constantly changing cds during the party (I wanted to be free to concen... | |
| Audio advertising, snake oil, and this: Gabbro,Excellent video.Understood every word. | |
| "The Heat Pipes are coming"... The Heat Pipes are 03-28-11: ElizabethSeems Noble100 has managed to GET to yakutsk, USSR and collect the prize. and still had time to take a shower. Amazing: Please tell us how you did it?Elizabeth, Lets just say: I got skills. I also won the prize for guessing the ... | |
| "The Heat Pipes are coming"... The Heat Pipes are Okay all you Heat Pipe doubters, listen to this true story and become believers: It was a really hot day when I wanted to run 4 or 5 miles. So, as any reasonable and intelligent Audiogon member would obviously do, I attached one of these Heat Pipe... | |
| Instrument that showcases your system Evan. Yes Iknow what you're talking about, my system reproduces voices and acoustic guitars very naturally and realistically, especially with well recorded soundtracks. On several Jack Johnson tracks I can hear his fret hand sliding on the strings... | |
| Background video - listen/watch different sources Dbhd, In my prior post, I was referring to the planned obsolescence of mass market televisions, ht receivers and dvd players. I was not making any comment about replacing an older high-end preamp/processor like your Proceed PAV/PDSD ($4,000+ msrp ... | |
| Background video - listen/watch different sources Dtc, I agree that having one cable (HDMI) simplifies hookups for the majority of users. My issue is really with the manufacturers' apparent strategy of ]planned obsolecence'. Some of the improvements stand on their own merits and justifiedly spur ... | |
| Background video - listen/watch different sources Well, I'm glad we were able to help Gtjdorris with his hookup problem. DTC-My concern is where does it all end? Will the HDMI have enough bandwidth to handle 9.1 surround or 43.1 surround. And how about the new 'Smell o Vision' and its required ex... | |
| image on tv goes green Raks, Or she could keep doing the usual: smack you so you can smack the tv. But ask her to just use her hand instead of that huge frying pan. | |
| Background video - listen/watch different sources Dtc, After understanding the issues in more detail, I have to agree with Chadnliz that HDMI is a step backwards. By combining the video and audio signals in one cable they have, in practical hook up terms, probably caused as many problems as they'... | |
| Background video - listen/watch different sources I use separates and have never owned a HT Receiver, although I have hooked up an older ht receiver for a friend's ht system. But, unless I'm missing something, the answer seems obvious to me. Gtjdorris wants to watch tv while listening to music. W... | |
| Pass Labs X250 - Good Match for my Apogee Stages? Loveitloud, I can also vouch for the Aragon 4004MKII being a low cost solution for your Stages. I use my 4004 to drive low efficiency (89db)planars and it drives them with ease and the combo sounds very good. I agree with Jeffjazz, though, that ma... | |
| Jennifer Warnes fans? Yes, I'm a big fan, too. I first heard her while auditioning gear at Chicago area audio retailers, they used it because her albums/cds were so well recorded with really good spatial imaging and soundstage depth. Her band also utilized unusual inst... | |
| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? Mrs. Timsorosk,Hi, this is Mrs. Noble. Funny, you call your husband a "spud" and I call mine the 'stud'. My husband keeps me quite busy, especially at night, but I would love to post as often as I can to give the feminine perspective. You keep you... | |
| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? Swampwalker,This is Mrs. Noble100. You must be the guy that started all this by parading around in nothing but a speedo and rollerblades. I seriously suggest you read my husband's (Noble100)last post on the "Where does your user name come from" to... |
