I sent Mr Chow an e-mail, but have received no reply yet. However, the interesting thing is that tonight the music on the local classical channel was fantastic. Maybe the electricity was particularly good today? I think I am still very much in the learning stage of getting to know the sound of the TU-X1.

The variation of sound with electricity, however, more than ever I find intriguing regarding in what way small signal variations and noise can impact the sound. I believe that if we can systematically analyze the effects, we can come to a solution.

I found that my TU-X1 is much less susceptive to electricity problems then my other sources. I have no idea why. I generally have no problems or concerns about the TU-X1, I do not like some aspects of its front end but it is another subject. Sound-wide I feel it is perfect.  Still, I am also at learning stage of getting to know Sound via TU-X1. I was not home entire Friday but I have scheduled the BSO’s matinee live broadest. Today I head what it was and it was fantastic and in a way unique as it was the ONLY concert and on Saturday it was completely different program

The concert started with Schubert’s Fantasie in F minor for piano four-hands. It was played by Daniel Barenboim and believe or not but by James Levine himself. What the Sound they produced! It was true a celebration! Then Daniel Barenboim proceed to Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3 with BSO and Levine’s conducting.  Very good play! You want more celebration? You can not get more than this: the next in concert was world premiere of Elliot Carter’s “Interventions for piano and orchestra”. This premiere was dedicated to Carter 100 birthday on that took place on Thursday and Elliot Carter himself was on the stage at the “Interventions…” premiere. It needs to be heard LIVE to get all that Boston Symphony atmosphere and how all that “human electricity” intermingles with music. The concert finished by Levine leading BSO with Stravinsky’s “Rite of Spring”, that was OK but I am sure it would be more fun if Stravinsky was sitting at the second balcony…

I mean a tuner is not only about sonic effect but also about some “realty transmission” and “realty preservation” if you record live broadcast. There is something about TU-X1 that make it very powerful tool in this journey…
