| Popping sound @gdaddy1 Yes, it looks that way. I just used the OPs question as posted. It’s good to know it that level of detail works. I must admit I am using AI more and more, and it is becoming so much more useful. Thanks for the tips. I use it all... | |

| I'm Just Not Hearing It..., Do You??? Tiring of listening, fatigue, and headache are all symptoms of a problem in your system. High frequency hash and distortion causes these problems. Old or inexpensive digital or solid state cause these problems. These are obvious symptoms of a se... | |
| I can live with this. Great to hear you have found a great place you are happy with. That is really the point. Listening for me when I worked was 45 minutes... one album was the time I allotted a day. I worked towards a very specific sound goal for nearly fifity year... | |
