Ron’s New System

[abeidrov]

Poor choice of benchmark?

No way! Is our Guru loosing it? What is the world coming to?
Sorry, couldn’t resist

Tbh Ron,
I rather prefer Stevie Nicks or Fleetwood Mac than Diana Krall on your system. Or it might be just that song or version of California Dreaming that I don’t like where Diana Krells voice sounds retarded (sorry to say) (although I like Diana Krall in general). I like the original California Dreaming with the original tempo and not a copied and slowed down version to some kind of heroin-tempo, don’t like it, but that’s only me, and YMMV.

What I would like to hear, is how your system performs on electronic music, like Yello, Depeche Mode or Jean-Michel Jarre for instance, I think that might sound amazing.

Could be a new definition of “Group delay”?

I quickly went back and forth between the two videos. It's clear as day that Kedar's recording sounds cuspy and boxy compared to Ron's recording. Also, the organ is much better defined and delineated in Ron's recording. The vocal is clearly superior on the planar speaker.

What does 'cuspy' mean to you as an audio adjective? That's a new one to me.
