hi,I listened to the eighth tonight, it's the only version I have for the moment. it is quite magnificent at moments, i believe the over the top horns are the sound engineer fault. i am out in the SF Bay area end of week and hoping to find some good ...

the box set just arrived, listened to the third symphony twice tonight. geez romy if this is bad bruckner then I would really love to hear the good stuff!very nice flow, always teling a story, superb layering of themes. crisp horns, clear woodwinds, ...

well we will see, I have never heard the celibidache munchen bruckner, it has very good press in french Diapason magazine, but sometimes the (we) french ar somewhat superficial in our classical tastes! i am listening today to celibidache / du pre dv...

hi,just because it annoys me, i picked up a new celibidache 12-cd set of bruckner recordings on amazon.fr for 25€ delivered (in france), instead of 449$ on amazon.com for the 8-cd set? maybe I am missing something! if anyone wants the set and amazon...

hi romy,it seems the audio review is concerned mostly with the science of reproduction of sound "event", it is easier language than the the language of aesthetics in an art form. funny that when people go to a museum and have an emotional reaction t...

Perhaps the PP2000 doesn't like working with inferior equipment!It seems obvious but did you try running the PP2000 from different wall outlets ? I know it should't make a difference.R Weissman...

I would suggest that high-end audio starts with a real love of music and good listening skills. Tolstoy, dickens and swift had an enormous range in their writing skills, each one able to describe their entire country and the people living there. It ...

If you want to make God laugh - tell him about your audio plans!Or on a more serious note, I would tell people that they should align their cable budget with what they spent on the last anniversary gift of their compagnon, you have to keep this hobby...

Hi,I took a listen at the soundliason site, thanks for link. The sound quality is excellent, but my gosh the crmen gnomes is just awful! There is zero artistic interest inher interpretations, i think tou need a lot of bad alcohol and some very big br...

Hi romy,Are you familar with the integral released recently with the orchestre de aix la chapelle direction Bosch ? I heard the etude "zero zero" on the radio and thought it was nice modern interpretation. They want 114€ for the set though!R weissman...

Anyone have a clever way to diffuse floor reflections (here is radical method db-systems.fr) in a room that is not dedicated listening environment.My daughter spread out an enormous playmobil plastic collection the other day in the area between me an...

I heard this TT, it was magnificent, almost no coloration to speak of, dead dead quiet. Of course it wasn't plugged in and there was no tonearm or cartridge yet but man I loved the sound! Really whatnthe hell is everyone screaming about ? Romy mentio...
|
|
I have two TT fantasy, although we are getting off topic:1-why can't the record sit still and the cartridge runs around instead ? The cartridge can align itself for each groove, too complicated?The 2nd fantasy I keep for me as It is too silly....

I've had rx5000 (with the ry5500 motor) for maybe 10-years now. Romy beat me to the comment that the person on audiogon that refers to these tables as tweeky and/or constantly in need of repair/missing parts has a clear agenda to sell something else!...

Hi Romy,Do you have experience with this tube ? I have seen it for first time in german amplifier recently and am curious.R weissman...
|
|
Probably the s4600 . They are replaced by the s4700, around 20k $ if those are the ones. There are very few models of the ultra high-end jbl here in france, but they are very well respected. I have never heard....

Hi Romy,Yes great minds think alike! I made a note of a viola version of the suites I heard on the radio just a few weeks ago! It was a modern recording by patricia something and the first time I heard them played on viola and loved it, though i was...
|
|
Yes My comment was not fair, obviously she didn't suit my mood at thentime and these suites can be very mood driven. Speaking of great afemale artists, I saw sylvie guilhem dance last night to beethoven piano sonate. The movement in dance canenlighte...

On the cover art she is dressed in slinky white dress with hand caressing cello, on CD she is dressed in emperor's new clothes. Too bad rostropovitch doesn't look good in underwear for the cover photo, but really whyndoes she need to record this. She...

Hi decoud,Are you still enjoying your amplifier ? I may go for it, or I may try a leben 660 or almarro 318 . Any feedback would be helpful.R weissman...

Hi,Thanks the S2s and EV T-350s were sold to UK based gentleman that took the PLANE to come pick them up! Hope he enjoys them. He is doing five-way installation and seems to have auditioned a lot of drivers already. He also plays a great guitar!I als...

This is one of my favorite topics. Not from a technical aspect, but as an ultimate way of life question. I spend an enormous amount of time listening to music, which means my family basically lives in the music room. In our house, however, the musi...

Ha-ha nice photos!Yes i'm sur if we consider the Absolute Sound, my internet radio is somewhat digital hazy on the trail end of notes and un-natural boomy on bottom but it is very enjoyable and much more than listenable compared to screechy DG vinyl,...
