Primaluna or not Primaluna I had a Primaluna Dialogue Premium. It did not have the detail I was accustomed to hearing. I gave the brand one last chance and traded it in for a Primaluna Evo 400...there was a big difference in detail. However, it is not the last word in deta... | |

The Beatles Revolver What he did with Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl is a game changer. But lots of liberties were taken. Small parts weren’t from the actual live recording. I own it...I love it. You can hear how hard Ringo hits. His Abbey Road reissue sounds great an... | |
What is the Best Sounding Stand Mount Speaker in the world? The one in the right room | |
Shipping 80lb amps. Yeah the correct answer is box it well. The original box was only designed to be shipped on a pallette with the other 50 boxes stacked next to it. Also shippers use less care these days. Just a sign of the times we live in. They wear headphones an... | |
Best Examples Of Cymbal Decays On A Recording Ultimate cymbal decay: Chris Isaac/Forever Blue Lead in to Baby I did bad thing. The decay is stretched but and faded down but it git got a lit of overtones | |
Choosing new speakers after 20 years If you can stretch for some Tannoy, they pair pretty well with Primaluna. Like, really well. I'm running both Tannoy and Primaluna and it is very sweet indeed. | |
Personality Type? BTW, Bonham copied and was influenced by a lot of drummers. That is why and how he became great. The best drummer rankings are never to be taken seriously...no one cares what their fans think...what do we know anyway? But I think the names tha... | |

The MoFi Mess and TAS rolling over for them Also glad I didn’t buy very much MoFi. Glad I trusted my instincts. I also won't buy from Music Direct anymore either. | |
The MoFi Mess and TAS rolling over for them Yeah, not buying MoFi products anymore. If a brand lies to its customers and responds as MoFi has, then it's a sign that they really don't give sh**. A lot of people don't understand how important public trust is to a brand. The power of a brand... | |
Recommendations for HiFi Listening Room Very little info about the room. What’s on the floor? What are the details of the short sides (doors/openings/windows etc)...same for the long sides? First audio component I would buy is a big 100% wool rug resting on a heavy felt liner. My rug c... | |
Bookshelf vs diffuser panel. Who wins? Books work well enough...so do a stack of records. So many functional ways to use traditional decor to accommodate acoustic benefits. For example I have no highly reflective surfaces in my living room except a 60" monitor on the side wall. I cover... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? The War Of The Gargantuas soundtrack-Akira Ifukube Have always loved the music of this classic Japanese monster movie. Would love to tell you more..but the words get stuck in my throat... | |
Does a turntable make a DRAMATIC difference? Digital is like tracing a picture. Analog is like drawing from one. The tracing is accurate but a bit lifeless. Analog is less accurate, yes, but full of life. A stylus reacts to a sharp noise reproduction in the recording with almost a violent ... |
