[quote user="rowuk"]Amir, I question your statement. There are so many senses (visual, aural, touch, smell). These senses can be fooled very easily.We do not need audio playback for anything except our own personal pleasure. I insist that there is no...

Amir,
Frankly speaking most of
you thinking about audio that you expressed at this site is just an evidence of
audio aimlessness, and to a degree I feel that you are very much a victim of

It is the end of the year and while people think about
summation of the year’s events, I would like to elevate myself to a higher altitude

Many years gone now, I have tried to keep in mind the sound of live acoustic instruments and voices as I tuned my hi-fi system, as it and I have evolved. So far it seems that there are an infinite number of ways to "move closer" to a constantly...

[quote user="op.9"]…. I had to throw out all sorts of preconceived ideas about how music actually works. Since then I've gradually tried to re-rationalise some of it... not always very successfully. To me, Janacek is like a compilation of all those '...

I would like to take my views about the subject of the thread:
Be careful: Imaging vs. Compression

[quote user="tuga"]Romy, Now I'm very curious. Could a mechanical prop be added to Macondo in order to stimulate a particular state of mind, like a certain spice would increase salivation? Could this be a universal spice or would it only work with a ...

I watched this. At first they are a bunch of pompous arrogant guys sitting around flatly bored, spouting asinine opinions mostly to hear themselves talk.Then a funny thing happens. About two thirds of the way through, they actually play a recor...

I do not know that they say about “size” and “ways to use it” but in audio “ways to use” unquestionably rules. It is funny how Audio people create cult of abstract “better” audio components of element but completely discard any sensibility to use tho...

I understand what you are saying in conceptual level and I agree 99% of us are molded in the frame work of the industry, but in practice, don't we need "knowledge and experience" albeit from a different perspective (the listening awareness)? Th...

Audio people know how “live” music sounds and what impact it has to listener. Well not all of them know, and a large number of them never visited concert halls and are familiar with music only by the chest pressure that they experienced at pop-clubs ...

Romy, I took the test and had to answer no to all the questions !?!
Does that mean I am not an Audiophile?

This is the subject that keeps bothering me over the years and I have no idea why I never have written about it within my site. The subject of this article will be a completely irrational, located at the boundary of idiocy, behavioral pattern of the ...

When you say it was not very high end...but that you found the sound very good....doesn't that mean you should redefine the term high end?
Also. Why can't the purchase of a $20k speaker in itself not be regarded as audio ambition?
