I need to admit that I see a lot of dreams. Some of them interpretable, some of them are memorable and sane and some of them of course make me sorry that I use to rear too much Franz Kafka in my childhood. It is fun to make attempt to interpret the d...

Clark, there is much about sound that delights me, including the sounds involved in Music, and I also enjoy at times the hi-fi, especially as I fancy it to be a "vehicle" for Music. Of course the audio does not necessarily render Music, and I can onl...

That all interesting though but the problem is that they have no way to be absolute valid. Yes, we as a humans, have a lot of masking effect build in us that prevents up to get complexity and color of sound with dynamic range rises. Yes we do in many...

Well, Mr. Humber and the Company feel that this is the most
important compon...

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 way to measure pers...

Generally it is very uncharacteristic subject in audio: the destiny of audio reproduction. Destiny might be only with something that has its own lifespan. Audio reproduction is in a way an imitation and therefore should hot have own destiny because i...

[quote user="Stringreen"] I am a professional violinist. When I play in Avery Fischer Hall my instrument sounds quit different than when I play it at home and again different still when I play it in Carnegie Hall. Instead of neutrality, perhaps one ...

[quote user="Max Shatsky"]>You might built better audio or learn to develop more sensitive perception and you end up with the same results. This why I, staring from a certain level, refuse to combine audio and music and feel that audio resol...

[quote user="livemusic"] You are absolutely right, saying "audiophile" which is not capable to hear any criticizm about his system…. [/quote]
Well, there is another side of the medal in it. The fact that they are not capable to bear criticism is bad...

Reading Paul’s reply I came across to asking myself of what we call painting. Let get for instance any famous works, let I be the early Dali’s portrait of his sister “Figure at Window”. What we call as the “Figure at Window”?
When we mention the “...

[quote user="Paul S"] So, here we are, adrift on the great big sea of audio tomfoolery, without a metaphorical paddle. If we can on the one hand hear any and every change in our systems, then this implies that everything is worth considering. If we a...

I constantly receive emails from people asking me my opinions about audio equipment. I was trying to address it in here:

…but still. Those people do not really understand hot tedious to think ab...

Hm, the example with Wilson is much more complicated then you think. Wilson are very much misunderstood and mis-presented products. From certain prospective they well worth their money. Still, in context of this thread: problem with Wilson is not Wil...
|
It always amazed me that among the people who circle around audio there is a sentiment that audio might require none-presentational evidences. I look at those full of pomposity and self-assured individuals who would talk about anything and who would ...
|
[quote user="drdna"] Yes, we are saying the same thing. The problem as I have found it is that transparency is easily recognized and so there is a tendency for audiophiles to focus on this when they try to improve their systems, and this can ma...
|
It is absolutely amassing how many audio people misunderstand Audio Neutrality. The Audio Neutrality is one of the most import moments of audio reproduction and still it is misunderstood. Not good!
The very first step to begin understanding of real ...

I hate to provide what the audio people call “equipment recommendations”. Whoever has sent me private emails asking me about buying or trying one of another audio component know that I usually suggest do not bother me or propose to them going to hell...

If you thoughtfully read my site then here and there (particularly in the articles about Lamm ML2) you read my “absurd” comments that the best performing system is the system that do best Sound while the power amplifiers not even plugged in the p...

Actually I would like to stay at on the subject of this thread - the benefits of critiques and the benefits of positive perception of critiques. I less care about corporations as they have no personal consciousness but I rather target my attention to...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]It played well, though I question if it makes sense to use that caliber music for audio evaluations. [/quote]
Let just for sake of illustration to presume that any expressed opinion (a review) about audio element/component...

Manuel, I think you missed the whole point of my post.
I did not say that musicians being better than others just based on the music they play, although I might see rational for some people, including me, to advocate this point. However, in context...

Here is an article by Leonard Norwitz that I think some of you might find motivating. I do not know Mr. Norwitz but it sounds like dinked too mach Qvortrup’s coca-cola. Anyhow, although I do not agree with some (sometimes many) of the Mr. Norwitz’s c...

I would like to share more of my troughs about the ESD
acoustic. That are not truly the troughs about the company but rather the troughs
that come to mind inspired by the company come to existence.
I do feel that it is an ultimate we dream of et...

I may have a point on this
some years ago, I had some confidence with the owner of a shop, and he let me use the demo equipment, though in fact my budget didn´t allow to buy him more than a few cheap things.one day I was psycothic listenig to s...

Romy,
I was picky about the word "generate", since it means that a playback creates
some sort of semantics. I would say that a "serious playback" may open new
possibilities for a listener to use a higher order semantics, but those
semantics are...

Anthony, without making it too wordy (no strength to write for a long now):
there are some natural rules of sound creation, sound distribution, sound propagation, sound consumption and so on. They are not my of anybody’s else rules but the rul...
