| Computer speakers? As for the Audioengine 2 - I really don't like speakers that put the amplifiers for both the left and the right speakers in the same speaker.There's no question that Blue Sky has the best designed speakers - the main speakers are acoustic suspensi... | |
| Computer speakers? Look at Tapco as a lower cost alternative for pro-style near field monitors. You can get them real cheap at B&H photo video and they sell some good stands there too. The only reason I haven't ordered them is that I almost always use headphones... | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good There's another one - Czezky D' Dur or something (search Icecast.org) that broadcasts in 256 kbps Ogg. | |
| audiophile low pass filter Everything. | |
| audiophile low pass filter It does amaze me the "audio engineers" that I have conversed with seam utterly ignorant of the following truthfrequency recorded = (frequency input) mod (sampling rate/2) | |
| audiophile low pass filter I meant low pass as I stated. Jwmazur, speakers have absolutely nothing to do with this thread.Off topic aside: You can do high pass for rumble in the digital domain. After looking into this a little more closely, it appears that what I'm looking ... | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good I managed to get this thing working. The problem with setting up the bridge itself was because of a network adapter installed on my firewire port that was causing the LAN to malfunction. The problem with losing internet access was because enabling... | |
| Plextor closes it's doors to CD and DVD products This panick inducing thread caused me to look for another high end brand and I found "LaCie," which appears to be even more expensive than Plextor. Anyone tried them?And does anyone know of a BD-ROM drive on the market? Not a triple burner or a bu... | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good I got around to buying that Linksys wireless music bridge and it doesn't work at all. I can't install the drivers, at least not completely, the installation hangs leaving partially functional software that disables my wireless network (I have to r... | |
| Sample rate converter Where do you get one for that price? Ebay?The only retail I found with froogle was ~$700. | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good The highest bit rate at live365 is 96 kbps and everything uses the mp3pro codec, which just doesn't cut it. 96 kbps AAC+ sounds very listenable, but not mp3pro. And I can't bookmark a live365 stream in Winamp. | |
| Audiophile grade analog to digital converter Another thing that's good to know: DVD lab pro is reputable shareware that can produce audio only DVD-video, and it only cost $245. The only commercial software that can do that is Sonic Scenarist which costs $5000. | |
| Audiophile grade analog to digital converter Lynx = excellent. But there's a hitch. CEDAR now offers a set of software tools, which at $4000 (seams to be the price) are a bargain for CEDAR. If you're going to use digital noise filtering, use CEDAR or not at all. The CEDAR tools only work wit... | |
| Volume normalization between phono preamp and A/DC The resolution on the Hagtech ripper is too low. | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good I tried the Roku Radio Snooper while listening to the internet radio on Winamp and it didn't pick up any of the streams, so I'm not at all interested in the product. Winamp is important because there are some streams that are only listed at Shoutc... |
