This weekend I discover interesting phenomena on which I did not pay attention before. The Montrealian Charles Dutoit conducted this weekend Boston symphony. I was listening the broadcast, recording it as usually. It was ...

Oh I was thinking about FLAC, such as the ones from Linn Records, not raw WAVE files.

Well, as I said – you never know. I was listing the live Friday WGBH broadcast over internet from my work (very bad quality) and when I got home I listen my recording. The Brahms Double Concerto I did not like, but the Bruckner 7 was very-very good. ...

I recognized that I have tired for the last week like hell. Do not ask me what I got tired from – I will not be able to say. That whole moving, packing, unpacking this was too exhausting… The good thing is that I go an interesting room as a resul...

Eventually I got electricity-wise what I had in my old listening room. It turned out that the last straw that I was missing was Lavry ADC that was connected to ground of my remote switcher.

[quote user="guy sergeant"] Can you describe how your vinyl playback and conventional CD playback fall short of what you are getting from FM? [/quote]
Guy, you are asking a resemble question but what do you expect me to say? Do you expect me to conv...

A few months back a local audio guy advised me to use cPlay to pay files from my DAW. I installed it and was not too thrilled with it sound. Recently I updated to the new version:

[quote user="Hyperborean"] Well, I'm not convinced. [/quote]
Well, I do not think that you would see anywhere at my site trying to convince anybody. The only person I do try to convince is myself, and I might assure you that so far it was quit...

Yes, Peter,
I know that in the Steinberg WaveLab use only Bob Katz’ metering system, still I thought that if they are cooperate then Katz’ Ambience Recovery might be available as a standalone plug-in. It is kind of suspiring that Mr. Katz was able t...

Scooter, I was thinking myself if it was a pirated CD and I very carefully inspected it, I did not found any signs of not authenticity but I am not expect in it. To me it looks like a legitimate DG album. Though I admit that with contemporary mea...

I do not know what happen between amplifier and speaker but I think matching of amplifier and speaker is one of the most important things is audio.

Inspired in part by Romy's results and excitement with FM, I wanted to try.

Romy, I would be delighted to hear some of these recordings from your
FM receiver. Unfortunately, here in the San Francisco Bay Area, we have
no good classical radio station. There is one classical station, highly
commercial and apparently with th...

Well, another page of my saga with APS regenerator is turned. I got the updated APS unit. It kind of “works” as I redefined the definition of word “works”. Under normal circumstances I would walk away from it but there are some moments in my “bad ele...
