    Do Mobile Fidelity Vinyl Re-issues Have a Digital Step in the Process?

    What is wrong with these guys? Its all about money. All analog is more expensive. It certainly is not better to add a digital step. Cmon man. I have never liked their reissues. I have a few but my fascination with MoFi ended when I purchased Linda Rohnstadts Prisoner in Disguise MOFI and...

    Music is Messy

    Regardless of how messy music is, I want my system to make me want to listen to music. For everyone, thats different. I do not want a system that may be more accurate in some ways but in the end sits idle for months on end. Ive been there and done that. Thats not for me.

    The language of Reproduction and the language of Music.

    I guess what I would consider important is how much do I want to listen to my music? Does my system make me want to listen to more music regardless of cost? Thats the important thing. Do I go weeks or months without listening or I cannot wait to listen again? IMHO, the more natural the...

    * Did you watch a film last night (on Blu or DVD), and what was it? *

    other than Anna De Armas, I was quite a bit disappointed. Its a far cry from the original IMO

    best cost no object, cables

    If somebody wants to spend money on cost no object cables, by all means go for it but its the room, gear, source, SPEAKERS that IMO, is a lot more important and investing there is probably a better option.

    best cost no object, cables

    My friend thinking its a scam may be a little overblown. However, none of us in our group believe that cables and power cords should be used as fixes. If that is what it comes down to, something else is up. Maybe the room for starters. I personally have found that many expensive cables may...

    Best Pressing of Black Sabbath Paranoid Album?

    The Warner Brothers Green label earlier pressings are pretty good. Its just hard to find them in good shape. I have an earlier WWA pressing from the UK thats pretty good. It is supposed to sound very close to the Vertigo. supposedly, they used the stampers from the Vertigos on these...

    Zero Distortion: Tango Time

    From what I have read, there is far less altering done these days on some of the reissues. Back in the golden age of stereo, during the vinyl mastering process, compromises were made as the playback systems at the time were not what they are today. However, these tapes are older now and they...

    best cost no object, cables

    I said most. I had an epiphany years back when a friend in my listening group lives by this philosophy that the cables and power cords are just a scam. He was using Klipsch Cornwalls, and old Mc240, vintage McIntosh Pre and a Dual I think 1019 idler, 12 gauge speaker wire form home depot...

    best cost no object, cables

    I have come to the conclusion that most aftermarket cables, interconnects etc. add something to the sound, but they also take away something as well. The stock power cords and I have pretty basic interconnects homemade for the most part sound like do not add anything to the sound and that they...

    LG G1 Versus Sony A90J Video Monitors

    I do not see the fascination with brightness. I have a Sony A8F and it is plenty bright. I have the brightness turned way down. I was recently to the cinema and the picture on the A8F blows away the cinema and its a three year old OLED. I cannot see how it can get much better. I am not sure...

    Any Klipschorn owners here?

    A big horn speaker like that in the bedroom? Interesting. Being so close I would think they would not be as coherent as other speakers. I cannot remember sitting close to Klipsch Heritage loudspeakers.

    Audiophile power cords vs. the cables in your walls

    I thought that aftermarket power cords were better for years until I went to a friends house. He has a vintage system and it sounded amazing. No fancy cables or power cords. It got me thinking.
