    When I built my 103dB+ system I took a page from the Cogent crew and used magnet wire to feed the Audax tweeters. Only milliwatts are required. Past 100dB efficiency it is a different world. It is a...

    SACD has had a rocky commercial history. I think it was Mobile Fidelity that bet the farm on the system, creating complete studio facilities to produce it and literally going bankrupt when it did not...

    Do you recall Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders? Their name came from a novel and a Dirk Bogarde film of the same name, which WAS about sensory Deprivation experiments. Back at the time I did read...

    "Why New Music Sucks"

    This video has the most deceptive title I can recall. It covers why that would be a really ignorant way to think. Mary Spender is enjoying how everything is changing and opening the opportunities for...

    It is complicated (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SoundCloud) but Soundcloud is, for users, a streaming service. It has options for musicians providing content, but streaming by nature does not offer...
