| Reel to Reel decks T_bone, I am very glad you picked that nit. A bumble bee aint supposed to be able to fly; it's "theoretically" impossible. What I stated is "theoretically" impossible. However, when I record a CD on my 2 track Technics reel to reel; it becomes the... | |
| The Sound or Music Mapman, give me a rundown on the big OHMs. Although I have never auditioned a pair, "theoretically", I can not imagine a better speaker. | |
| Reel to Reel decks While I stated tape is expensive, I now realize, that is relative. There is no better quality of stereo reproduction than reel to reel tape. My tapes are better than the original source. But that comes at a price; my tapes are half track, which me... | |
| The Sound or Music Mapman, would you rather putz than listen. After you have reached a point where you are in "audiophile heaven", how long do you remain before you have to "putz"? | |
| The Sound or Music Kijanki, I'm glad you mentioned violin. When the violin is just right, everything else is just right. | |
| Reel to Reel decks Although I have two reels, I concur with others. Tape is expnsive, put your computer hardrive to work for recording. | |
| The Sound or Music This debate is quite facinating. I have come to the conclusion that we realy don't know who we are; we only think we know. We act and then we give a reason for our actions; as opposed to having a logical thought out reason for taking them in the f... | |
| Reel to Reel decks I have a Technics reel to reel. I use it to record my vinyl. I recomend Revox because you can still get parts; although I have never had a problem with the Technics. | |
| Why not horns? Horns are music and instrument selective. No speakers can reproduce the sound of a sax better than a horn. All speakers are music selective to some degree. | |
| The Sound or Music Kijanki, I don't think you are an audio freak. I think you are a music lover who is trying to get his audio up to a very high level. Once you have accomplished this you will enjoy your music a lot more. Audio freaks are on a never ending quest. | |
| The Sound or Music Once upon a time, like Elizabeth,s relative, I enjoyed good music from whatever source it emanated. This was before I discovered "The high end"."How you gonna keep'em down on the farm after they've seen Paree"?Now, I am absolutely positively astou... | |
| ESS speakers synergise with valves? They synergise very well. I have custom built speakers that utilize the largest tweeter, the one they used in the 2 way originaly. I also have a tube pre and power. the crossover uses Jentsen caps. I am more than satisfied. The speakers are three ... | |
| Audibile Illusions, Modulus 3 vs 3A I own a 3A and I use NOS Mullard tubes that have lasted for years. The 3A is detailed. If you want the tube sound, you can't beat the older CJ's; PV10, PV11, or PV12. | |
| Audibile Illusions, Modulus 3 vs 3A There is no comparison between the 3 and the 3A, they just look alike. Two different animals. Look up the reviews on the 3A. | |
| Cannonball Adderley's "Somethin Else"... Mono? I bought the LP right after it came out. It belongs in the Jazz hall of fame. Sorry I can't help you in regard to mono or stereo. |
