Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site

Happy 2026! Looking back on 2025 hi-fi, it was all about integrating and developing new speakers for “more stereo”. Naturally (this being hi-fi), as my stereo improved my mono has slipped by comparison. Not to say the mono is “bad”, rather all the terrific stereo “soundstage” significantly overshadows what I get out of mono. I have not yet played much trying to “bring up” the mono, but I have observed that some more modern “mono” records are more “open” played with the K&K knob set to “stereo”, while old mono recordings just sound better on “mono”. I have in mind some things I want to try with mono recordings, but I am not ready to give up the great stereo I enjoyed in 2025, and I will not intentionally take a back step there to showcase mono.>>
