Replying I have to say that I am a very intelligent person. No matter how much I am able to be flown with 'kick' during my sensuous experience and how far I might be drifted with flows I always try to rationalize and to learn the nature about my ...

It seem a market test for that type of recording. They probably will launch a few more "luxurious" limited editions to cover everything they spent and guarantee some profit before lower the cost, and if they find out that fashion could be profitable ...

[quote user="oxric"] I just wished you would find it in you, out of fairness and common courtesy, to keep the thread within the boundaries within which it was raised, that is a technical discussion on the approach of Frank Shroder to the design o...

The last year there was some chatter up about artificially created so called “digital drugs”. If you are not familiar with it get familiar here for instance:

[quote user="rowuk"]Amir,In live music, we have intermodulation. Two trumpets or a trumpet and oboe playing together create sum and difference tones that change depending on pitch interval for instance. For music in major keys, this intermodulation i...

[quote user="Joe Roberts"] Imaging...another hi-fi delusion. I used to record the Philadelphia Orchestra. The orchestra does not image.[/quote]
Would it be in 80 sunder Riccardo Muti? No wonder that it did not image. To be more serious I have to say...

I was trying to find out what drivers the Allen Sides’ speaker uses and found a lot of noise about this among the people of Guitar Center – it is not surprising considering Allen Sides background.

Ah electrostats...I am fairly sure that problem with esls is trying to take them down to low and them not being driven properly. If you actually calculate how much current you need to drive transient peaks into an ESL, it's horrifying. I can't imagin...

People, keep asking me about the sound of Melquíades and I feel strange as I really can’t not explain how it sounds. It does not make any sense as I initiated this thread with the objective to explain or at least to inform about the Melquíades’ sound...

I do not care about the Bruno Walter’s or the Mahler’s himself comments. I care about myself and in the way how I want it to play not one plays, and I am disappointed.
I am not a huge fun of Mahler First Symphony; in fact I am not a huge fun ...

Ethan,
Since I published the article “Preamplifiers: keys to mystery” I received many emails from my site visitors asking about Lamm prams and questioning my remarks in comparing what I said to “data form other sources”. Some people disagreed or sur...

The visitors of my site who have read my observations about the CES 2005

Dear Romy,The tracks are correctly listed.Yes, the tracks are varied and some are not good recordings at all. BUT if you want to listen to Billy Bean play guitar or you want to hear Louis Stewart's first recording as an 18 year old then you hav...

Hm, some very mysterious things are going on today similar to the observance of the Bethlehem star… :-)
I was commenting before that Lavry 924 is very slightly brighter then I feel a neutral peace of equipment should be. Once again it is not HF disg...

ANALOGUE TO DIGITAL CONVERTER COMPARISON by Kostas Metaxas
Procedure:
In all cases except for the KORG MR-1000, SOUND DEVICES SD744T and METRIC HALO[used with an Apple Laptop], I fed the outputs of the Stellavox SM8 to the A-D converter inputs [...

In the time of silver photography, when we shoot on E6 film, we use grayscales on the first image to let the print shops to correct chromic aberration of film, development or lighting. Looking at the amount of BS the today is going on with high-r...

Well, leaving aside my "grinding axes", namely my habitual love to remind people and myself that there are plenty Morons in audio I do think that Berkeley's parley to Reference DAC is interesting. It is interesting not by the DAC as a unit but rather...

Paul McGowan, the head of PS Audio send his newsletter with his comments about SACD. The comments are childish and in many way absolutely ignorant. I hate what the industry professionals twist the facts and go into pure falsification in order to ...

There was a good article about this very subject in 2004. You have to pay to use the NYT's archives, but one of Michael Green's disciples quoted it on their website, and they didn't get sued for copyright, so I guess it is OK to post it here:

Reggie, let to be clear that I use definition of kitsch in reference to audio installation. The Camerata as a cultural event is out of my criticism; in fact I applauded to what they did. The Camerata video did not bring me to the idea of perceivi...

I think my new room and new midbass horn will give me an opportunity to play at the NEW LEVEL with a notion that I have been chasing for years. I am taking about perceptual shrinking of frequency response. I need to admit that most of the ugliest...

I recently dealt with two manufactures that produce music . I noted that both of them stated with good result but nowadays, years in operation, they produce despicable crap. This correlates with a famous amplifier manufacturer, very much not stup...
