[quote user="Paul S"]HE, from what you've said so far, much of what puzzles and interests you now has been thoroughly discussed here for years, and IMO you owe it to yourself to read extensively at this site. As you begin to "get the idea" you will ...

Hi everyone. This being my first post on this forum, I thought i'd say hi and share a little bit about my journey in audio. I have been an audiophile for 25 years and owned several systems starting off with a modest Nad lifestyle system & Infinit...

Brad, I heard a KR years ago, only remember it was not the typical "no-feedback sound", which I think of as clear but flaccid and no push. I agree that "feedback" can eventually ruin bass, and more, as I mentioned earlier in connectio...

Believe, me, I agree wholeheartedly that running the DX4 down to 150 Hz is sub-optimal. In my case it is a compromise that has more to do with working efficiency vs. aural continuity than SPLs. I have also though of adding...

Romy's recent post on the trials of 12-channel DSET hi-fi made me feel a little better, but his point about maintaining performance is well taken, none the less. One simply must have an aural reference and some rigorous methods for keeping things son...

Like I said above, I planned from the start to try battery power just because John Wright recommended it, and it seemed like up to that point we were talking the same language, which was borne out when i listened to the unit as I received it.&nb...

[quote user="peter foster"] I mention this because your comments about Playlist 07; Song 02 and Song 03 are difficult for me to reconcile. On my system the upright bass is heard with very fine detail and all of the complex harmonics that follow...

It is sad that no one talks about it and it is very not clear what is going on. It looks like the companies that sell hi-res files feel that the phrase hi-res is automatically an assurance of some kind of “quietly”. Well, they most likely deal w...

practice relates to "actual sound" not to (any kind) of overloaded

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The Brits Pristine “eventually” heard my call. A few years back I begged them to sell the raw 24-bit masters bit not the 16/44 releases, as the down conversion below 20 bit kills too much of sound. It looks like nowadays th...

Yes indeed. The company was originally Nova Physics and appears to have been sold on to Sam Laufer, a lawyer by profession originally who brought in Mark Porzilli of Melos and Pipedreams fame. I do not know if this company actually manufactures or se...

Romy Your file was burned in wave format you provided as-is. It was never processed by the Korg. I conducted my test to evaluate the sound of 176/24 files on my system. These files came from you, Reference Recording and my Korg and all can coexist un...

New member, first post, so go easy on me!Ive been playing around with clocks in digital audio for a while. Current system uses a DCS Scarlatti stack with the Scarlatti clock. Synching to the Scarlatti clock rather than using the Scarlatti DAC as mast...

hi Romy. Nice topic! I have a very nice memory. I started very young, supported by a friend who tought me a lot and gave me books to study. I learned the basic formulas and started DIY speakers from purely technical perspectives, graphs, math, calcul...

[quote user="Paul S"] It is stupid, of course, but still we persist in comparing "live" and "reproduced" sound. But NO ONE EVER confuses video with life… [/quote] I disagree with this statement. I would argue that it “in a way” reversed. I said “in ...
