Note that I did not single out the medium. I find that the better the system, the better BOTH formats get.

I second GaryProtein's suggestion of the Toscanini Beethoven box set. I think that this...

I agree. On the other hand, with the excellent system, some recordings that I had regarded as inferior rise about the sonic problems to soar on musical merit. On not-so-excellent systems, the sonics...

It's all important - the system is only as good as the weakest link. Sometimes it's the recording, other times it's the loudspeaker, another time it could be one of the pieces of electronics or...

Mike,
Accurately measuring FR and distortion at low frequencies is almost impossible without an excellent anechoic chamber. This is because you need to set a time window that will reject the first...

It's quite easy - you should try it sometime at home.

Osso Bucco is Italian for "bone with a hole" - it usually refers to the shank of veal, beef or goat/lamb with a spot of delicious marrow in the middle of the bone. It is an extremely flavorful cut,...

Congratulations, Christian! I envy you.

Hi Bob, no secret sauce. Even the ingredients are listed on my website.

The power cords are very simple - no power conditioning, filtering, etc. I...

The power cords are optimized to interface 115V and 60Hz. 50Hz would be different, and when I used a PS Audio Power Plant to regenerate 230V 50Hz to try and optimize an export version, I couldn't...

And the recordings are getting even better! He didn't believe in the quality of the power cable until he had the unfortunate experience of trying out one of my Absolute Fidelity power cords on his...

I absolutely agree! His recordings are all spectacular, and I'm expecting that the vinyl will be even better!

I have all his high-rez files, and have demo'ed many to appreciative audiences around...

Problem is that Todd is a one-man-show, and he's doing everything himself. He doesn't have the skills to supervise the college kid. Last month, he tried to revamp the site with an "external...

It a long time for me (and many others) to persuade him to make the vinyl..... so I'm not surprised that the website hasn't been updated yet.

Yes - he was trying to get into it, but has website challenges. At the moment, his high-rez recordings are only available on DVD-ROM.

This year, MA Recordings celebrates 2.5 decades of creative, acoustic music by getting into some very serious vinyl! The first release is a 2LP set of LA SEGUNDA by the Argentine super group, Sera...

We used the cartridge supplied as a package with the two cheaper tables. On the TD350, I put a cheapie but goodie - the Denon 103r - on the SME M2 arm. Problem with using the same cartridge would be...

We called it a "fashion parade" and not a competition, and we didn't press the club members to rank the tables - although some of them did express their opinions.... General consensus was:

That's the next launch of the G2Jr, again together with the AF1, in Tokyo. If you can't make it then, I'll see you in Tokyo in November.

The G2Jr shows off the dynamics and resolution of the AF1...

Yes, it really shows how important the source is. The Burmester cost more than the entirety of the club's system - and we had TWO of them last week. Now, if only the club could afford to buy one.......

In order to have as level a playing field as possible, we used 4 copies of various albums. This allowed us to switch back and forth across the various turntables.

Unfortunately, can't get a room large enough at RMAF.... unless we can get one of the Colorado dealers to take on Genesis.

Jack, the Tokyo event is tentatively scheduled for 15th June in the Tokyo Forum. It will be great if you can make it. I heard about MOD DAC in August, but not sure if I'll be there.

I have been on a whirlwind tour around the world launching the Genesis 2.2 Junior (G2Jr) over the past few months - first in January in Las Vegas during CES, and then in April in New York at the New...
