[quote user="Max Shatsky"]>You might built better audio or learn to develop more sensitive perception and you end up with the same results. This why I, staring from a certain level, refuse to combine audio and music and feel that audio resol...

[quote user="Stringreen"] I am a professional violinist. When I play in Avery Fischer Hall my instrument sounds quit different than when I play it at home and again different still when I play it in Carnegie Hall. Instead of neutrality, perhaps one ...

It is absolutely amassing how many audio people misunderstand Audio Neutrality. The Audio Neutrality is one of the most import moments of audio reproduction and still it is misunderstood. Not good!
The very first step to begin understanding of real ...

[quote user="Paul S"] So, here we are, adrift on the great big sea of audio tomfoolery, without a metaphorical paddle. If we can on the one hand hear any and every change in our systems, then this implies that everything is worth considering. If we a...

[quote user="livemusic"] You are absolutely right, saying "audiophile" which is not capable to hear any criticizm about his system…. [/quote]
Well, there is another side of the medal in it. The fact that they are not capable to bear criticism is bad...

Reading Paul’s reply I came across to asking myself of what we call painting. Let get for instance any famous works, let I be the early Dali’s portrait of his sister “Figure at Window”. What we call as the “Figure at Window”?
When we mention the “...

I constantly receive emails from people asking me my opinions about audio equipment. I was trying to address it in here:

Hm, the example with Wilson is much more complicated then you think. Wilson are very much misunderstood and mis-presented products. From certain prospective they well worth their money. Still, in context of this thread: problem with Wilson is not Wil...

Here is an article by Leonard Norwitz that I think some of you might find motivating. I do not know Mr. Norwitz but it sounds like dinked too mach Qvortrup’s coca-cola. Anyhow, although I do not agree with some (sometimes many) of the Mr. Norwitz’s c...

It always amazed me that among the people who circle around audio there is a sentiment that audio might require none-presentational evidences. I look at those full of pomposity and self-assured individuals who would talk about anything and who would ...

There was a guy as one musical forum. His name is William Sommerwerck and for all intended purpose he is an idiot. He was posting more or less lucid comments about music but he also fancied himself as some kind of expert on audio. He insisted th...

Jorge, I am not out of my mind to let her know about audio gear. My interest not to educate her about audio methods but rather to educate her about the opportunities and benefits that “properly structured audio” might offer. The “properly structured ...

There are many conversations out there about the fact that many music people do not “get” audio. In most cases this is correct. They are many conversations, we had some of them at this site and the reasons of the phenomena that were brought are ...

I've been thinking about this matter for a while but could not find a better excuse to formulate my theory then in this topic. My simple theory is that if we reduce our concept of "music" the more fundamental concept of "sound" as point of reference ...

Just to show we were paying attention and NOT digressing OT:Perhaps, then, Romy should take on the role of Amy's audio sommelier? Sure, Amy knows music; but Romy knows music via hi-fi. He can cater to her tastes in a way that surprises and delights ...

I need to admit that I see a lot of dreams. Some of them interpretable, some of them are memorable and sane and some of them of course make me sorry that I use to rear too much Franz Kafka in my childhood. It is fun to make attempt to interpret the d...

Clark, there is much about sound that delights me, including the sounds involved in Music, and I also enjoy at times the hi-fi, especially as I fancy it to be a "vehicle" for Music. Of course the audio does not necessarily render Music, and I can onl...

That all interesting though but the problem is that they have no way to be absolute valid. Yes, we as a humans, have a lot of masking effect build in us that prevents up to get complexity and color of sound with dynamic range rises. Yes we do in many...

what is audio ?
Audio is our reaction to sound , if there are audiophiles with different reactions then you may convince yourself Audio quality is relative to listener.
I think it is not true. The real quality exist itself .

Amir, I question your statement. There are so many senses (visual, aural, touch, smell). These senses can be fooled very easily.We do not need audio playback for anything except our own personal pleasure. I insist that there is no way to measure pers...

The subject of “Third Country” might be interesting but
depressing. It is depressing because from
what I see the nations where audio was not developed by western paths did offer
any of own authentic development of vision but rather just copy ...

Amir, I certainly will not argue that many professional musicians have „easy playback“ with no demand for audiophile artifacts in their sound. This is often because they are drawn into the music at a „different“ level. The imaging that the audiophile...

At the beginning, audio was a scientific event. People like Bell, Marconi, Edison all were interested in playback of audio outside of the original performance. One used a telephone, another radio and yet another a medium in between for storage. I thi...

I think you also mentioned that you were involved with the Voyd (which for a Pink Triangle user as I was back then, looked very charming). I recall Voyd being recently acquired by Audio Note UK; are you affiliated with them?Anyway, I actually wa...

Hi Guy,Thanks very much for providing me your insights on the SP10.I have to confess when I initially read your comments I could not help but be astounded that a person involved with a Brit belt driven, light weight, suspended turntable would be usin...

a Hong Kong-based company DIY Hifi Supply is selling RIAA EQ modules, the first modulesthat I have seen at 10kOm. It is something that Thorsten did not do commercially… but if the silks sound good then it might be VERY interesting. Is anyone kno...

The frustrating thing is that those who know "how" to do things often have too strong an idea of "what" to do...perhaps you should offer an internship to someone young and idle keen to learn...?...
