| Other forums? Thanks for the suggestions. Cheers. | |
| Room improvement I strongly disagree with the opinion that the speakers are responsible for sounding good in your room. My advice is to find the speakers that sound best to you with your source and electronics, then perfect their placement in that room taking into... | |
| What is the forum code word for "listen to this stoned". I'd like to use it on these two: Chemically altered. Which could mean many things. Such as Prozac, Cymbalta, THC or ETOH. We will know what you mean. And, I agree with all the albums mentioned. Just be careful with handling the LPs. Disc servers are safer!If I may go off on a tan... | |
| Recordings by Elton John, Nirvana and Thousands More Lost in Fire @dramatictenor Thank you. Well said. I’m tired of the political drivel that has shown up on Audiogon. If I want that kind of soapbox I can watch MSNBC, FoxNews or any of the hundred “news” channels. I come here to get away from that and if this b... | |
| Best Headphone under 1k$? I appreciate your post but I stopped at the Sennheiser HD600 and have concentrated more on amplifiers. Sorry I have nothing more to add. You will find a multitude of opinions on Head-Fi forums and InnerFidelity. Good luck. | |
| New Santana, Lowest Dynamic Range Ever No surprise and I agree but it’s more than just the compression. Santana just doesn’t have the skill as a guitar player anymore. Very repetitious playing. Not imaginative like in the early days. I have every album and multiple concerts but no more... | |
| Anticable Cables: what do you like about them thread? I like the solid copper speaker cables. In my system they are natural sounding without coloration, tuning, fancy boxes or high cost. | |
| Real time sound levels You are technically correct. From the OSHA website:In 1981, OSHA implemented new requirements to protect all workers in general industry (e.g. the manufacturing and the service sectors) for employers to implement a Hearing Conservation Program whe... | |
| Real time sound levels Great question. It is a reflex action and triggered by loud noise. There is a very brief delay therefore abrupt loud sounds may not be dampened, such as a gunshot. We don’t notice it except with continuous loud noise it will seem less if the noise... | |
| Apple MacMini replacement or..... Again, a perfect response to my question. So often a post gets derailed by promoters and sellers, or just argumentative people. Much appreciated. My only remaining question is how long a 2014 MM will last until I can’t update the OS? Maybe by tha... | |
| Oppo 103 comparison with an Ayre Codex @whitestix The Oppo Sonica DAC is an audio DAC but has been discontinued. The used units are still reasonably priced. I think their implementation of the Sabre PRO ES9038 32 bit hyperstream DAC chip is wonderful. | |
| Apple MacMini replacement or..... Thank you. I understand. Sometimes I like it and sometimes I don’t. In my system sometimes Bitperfect seems clearer and cleaner. Very system and recording dependent. That becomes one of the questions concerning Bluesound Node. Much appreciate the ... | |
| Apple MacMini replacement or..... @2psyop perfect response to my question. Very much appreciated. I will investigate. TG | |
| Apple MacMini replacement or..... @pushpull thank you. I’ll look it up. TG | |
| Qobuz Users Update? Qobuz has a more complete classical library than Tidal but Tidal has more of everything else including Jazz and Rock. The hi rez quality of both is excellent but I would give Qobuz a slight edge. I had both but dropped Qobuz. I’ll come back when t... |
