| CD Got Absolutely Crushed By Vinyl Clearly, the OP and many others in this (and the zillion identical) threads, conflate *preference* with *fact*. This is what so often happens in the audiophile world. Someone has a subjective reaction or perception and then this becomes in their ... | |
| CD Got Absolutely Crushed By Vinyl I checked out that audiogeorge website.It put the musings in that post in context.I prefer geoffkait’s website; it’s more entertaining. | |

| Thoughts about the Magico A3, Revel Salon2/ Studio2 seasdiamond,Perhaps I'm reading the graph wrong - the F228Be's frequency graph isn't labelled like the others - but I'm not seeing a significant bass advantage over the Magico. Also, note the kind of weird downward tilted response of the Magico n... | |

| Thoughts about the Magico A3, Revel Salon2/ Studio2 I haven’t heard the Salon 2 at length (it sounded spectacular at a show), but I auditioned a few lower models (e.g. Performa) and I had a long audition of the Magico A3. The Magico certainly seemed highly resolving of detail, and had nice spacious... | |
| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD those kind of adjectives ( that are " audiophiles " adjectives. ) no one can find out in a live music event seated at near field (1m-2m- ) at true live SPLs.@rauliruegasNonsense.And something of a red herring as well.First, when I hear live un-... | |
| Miss my Dunlavy Speakers, Were to go... @mailman199I have found Dynaudio just a bit dry for me. I’ve always found the same with Dynaudio. I was for a while quite interested in Dynaudio speakers but never could get past that bit of "reserved" buttoned up dryness to the sound.I always enj... | |
| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? I've really enjoyed all the speakers I've owned. And it would seem a bit arbitrary to believe one of them was "the best." But if I absolutely had to give that prize to a single speaker, it would be the Thiel 3.7s I owned.They had an essentially... | |
| What are the best speakers you have ever owned and why? @richoppIt was not until we hooked up Magnepan products that we finally realized that NO box or HORN or ELECTROSTATIC or RIBBON or any combination of these reproduced sound as accurately as Magnepan products. How did you actually determine this?... | |
| CD Got Absolutely Crushed By Vinyl Agreed with the comments so far: words like "always" aren’t helpful and I can’t take anyone’s claim seriously with descriptions like "always looking through a dirty window pane." Though I do think the OP was jesting somewhat as a flame on the othe... | |
| Saving the sound of the Stradivarius Thank you for the interesting article! | |
| Turntable got absolutely crushed by CD Thanks tomwh.It’s funny that raulirugas shows his hand with his last sentence " enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS." A sentiment that could only come from someone invested in the SOUND of a system. Most people could happily listen to music through sy... |
