I did in past some compilations of good music for my car and for folks over the World with whom we exchanged music. I have a few hundreds of CDR sent to me from all part of glob. I always understood it as good music and never considered it any k...

The last movement of the B7 is something that put the symphony as a symphony together and it is not a good idea in my view to look at the last movement as a self-contained piece of music. The fist movement might be self-contained – it is a wonderful ...

The "better" 5751s got here and I took advantage of wifey's absence to listen at night. It was cool and the electricity was pretty good, just a little "dry", but no "cotton". Lazy boy, I still haven't fixed my DAC, so I have had only viny...

[quote user="slowmotion"]Alltough I understand both the scepticism against both the so-called DIY-movement and the audio industry (the industry is a many headed monster, tho - without the industry I/we wouldn't be here ) , I strongly agree with Guy's...

Hello Mario,I enjoyed this calibration file. I like to have a reference like this. I will be getting the 7th album you have released with some Schubert and Lizst music I like. It is nice to see you and your company is trying better yourselves and mov...

some chaotic ideas here:
- emho there´s not an absolute reference for what a "perfect sound of music" should be:every concert hall has its own sound, its own reverberant environmentevery seat in the hall has its own soundthe instruments al...

Ironically one of the biggest shortcomings of the visitors that I have is their luck of attitude or well defined demands toward to what they about to hear. Most of the audio people when they deal with audio let audio to play the music in the way how ...

Amir,an audio event can be anything that our ears hear. It can be live music, a baby crying, a recording, playback in the car.Playback is much different than live music - especially if we are familiar with the recording. First of all, stereo does not...

Computer playback has no autobiographical value. CD, LP, tape etc have autobiographical value and sometime huge value. A location on HD has none of it. Computer playback has no unified standard and no reference in virtual world. If a person uses some...

Well, when we are talking about Cogent we need clearly differentiate two things: the Cogent’s drivers and the Cogent’s installation. The problem is that since Cogent’s drivers are something so called “compression drivers” then their performance might...

You will find a very basic motto or life theme here that keeps recurring:Random efforts produce random results!In relation to audio, this means that buying somebody elses best of everything does not lead to a personal superior result.Basically proces...

Of course the All-Important Idea of Consciousness is not and never will be a commodity, which pretty much guarantees that we will read precious little about it in consumer-oriented magazines like TAS, etc. And, naturally, their consumer-oriente...

HE, from what you've said so far, much of what puzzles and interests you now has been thoroughly discussed here for years, and IMO you owe it to yourself to read extensively at this site. As you begin to "get the idea" you will be better able to nav...

I like debating with you Romy but I simply don't agree with your position on this. I am sure in practice we are not very far apart but in terms of thinking about the issue of reproduction and tone our way of thinking about it differs.You keep u...

Wow! That review is filled to the brim with so much B.S. I was amazed, all that "You need this special $5000 hookup wire to get the most out of this cartridge" etc. I couldn't believe it. Has the state of audio reviewing truly been reduced to this sa...
