    Atmasphere replied to the thread Natural Sound.

    I don't think it is, but I've noticed that many people use SETs with speakers that have far too little efficiency to really hear what...

    Atmasphere replied to the thread Natural Sound.

    You might consider then that SETs have the highest noise floor of any kind of amp. If you run DC on the filament of the power tube this...

    To me, the ambiance is the background overwhich the next notes are presented, inherent to each performance and space. The lower the...

    Apparently we are all on the same page here with the exception of what 'black background' means. To me if the background is truly black...

    Atmasphere reacted to hopkins's post in the thread Natural Sound with Like.

    Vis a vis "black background", it is interesting, once again, to read what Arthur Salvatore explains, at least to acknowledge that much...

    Atmasphere reacted to SuperDave's post in the thread Natural Sound with Like.

    I agree that I should use noise floor instead of saying black background but to me, a black background is a descriptor of the lowest...

    Atmasphere replied to the thread Natural Sound.

    So we have very different uses of the phrase! When describing room ambience I use 'room ambience', 'hall reflections' and perhaps the...

    Atmasphere replied to the thread Natural Sound.
