In all fairness I missed the MBL, Acapella, Dynaudio rooms and some others on first floor..... 
Home Entertainment Show in Los Angeles
I took my daughter today to accompany and give me a non audiophile perspective on the sound quality in various rooms. She too thought most rooms were really bad sounding. Surprisingly the best sounding rooms had Wilson's in them except the ESP spe... 
contradictory communication
Mr Ts, When I ( and many others) reads your description and general definition of warm = rolled of freq=less transperent, I tends to agree generally but on a second though would say not necessarily. Perfect contradictory in my own two systems. It ... 
Home Entertainment Show in Los Angeles
I too plan to attend over the weekend. Thanks for the link as I was not sure exactly it was held!!!. But I admit, i am little bit apprehensive about going there and listening to mega buck systems and for fear that I may look DOWN upon my system. T... 
Love it, or Hate it ? (wood trim)
I think I would make up new category-"Depends".On how it is done that is. Love the two side wood panels on my JOR looks great, but I wouldn't like it as a front panel. Hate the wooden knobs on Art Audio amps. Love the wood work on some of the PATH... 
Queen on American Idol
Yep Velo62, I too, was wondering about Prince's backup singers. What a highlight of the otherwise cheesy finale. I enjoyed his performance too. He acted like royalty too. Did his thing and no cheesy BS. On AI, Personally I liked Katherine, though.

Best "album" of 2006
Ladies and Gentlemen, my sincere Vote for Jenny Lewis & watson twins. Also, Neko case, beth orton and definitely Yeah yeah yeahs but the winner is so far is The Raconteurs, the Jack Whites not-so-white-stripes supergroup. The music, the riffs,... 
listening to music in the car
Sbrtoy, agree on all counts. My system exists no more (Tired of repeated radiator leaks and donated the car) but the amps and sub woofer box practically rotting in my garage. I let the expesive head unit and dsp processor and component speakers go... 
I've come to the realization...
Earthpulse, I don't understand how can you claim to be knowing your instrument sounds and not prefer high frequency in the reproduced sound. Unless your system produces excessive tipped up sound off neutral at high freqencies. So if you are lookin... 
listening to music in the car
I agree with Goatwuss. In early thru late 90's I hade a really great sounding system in my Prelude with Pioneer Premier (Thier high end, I don't even know they still have that line) head unit with DSP /EQ and time alignment capabilities. The speak... 
listening to music in the car
Car stereo could be very very good in terms of dynamic and emotional impact, if set up correctlty. My current car stereo in 2002 Boxster S is very effective in generating emotions even with stock radio, speakers. But I have added DSP system and 'b... 
persoanlity and speaker preference
Mr T. Although I am not an introvert, I border on extrovert while not completely adhere to the definition. Liberal Republican is kind of right description as far as my cars and audio prefreneces go. Other than that I am an maximum democrate. :) 
persoanlity and speaker preference
I like cone speakers, Time and phase aligned. Has to be acoustic suspension type. Gotta have full range. And yes Gotta be Dunlavy.I have heard planar, horn elecrostatics. Enjoy them but...I like neutral and lively sound. If it manages to be musica...
