Do you still use CD's, Vinyl? Have you got a Hi-fi, Amp, DAC. Streamer? Just interest in what every one is using. Thinking about buying some new speakers. |

i used to have adam sub7+a8 but bees ate those, and i'm back to my altec lansings. in college, on lsd, i spilled orange soda on the left one. with a tear in my eye, i said, "i will remember this stain forever." and i shall. for headphones, sony mdr-v6. my car has the stock stereo but it sounds nice. |

PC(S/PDIF)--->RX-V373 but only 44kHz available on 5.1 system PC(HDMI)---->TV(HDMI)--->RX-V373 etc. Also I have cassette player and I am planning to buy vinyl player this. This way could listen pure analog sound. Any recommendations, is it worth to buy vinyl player? |

akg k240 for my walks every evening. at home just mp3s on my whatever computer speakers. i rarely pop the cds i buy into my stereo, if at all anymore. |
||||||||
|

i just play mp3s from my computer |

Headphones can be really good. But it is not the same as a proper hi-fi sound. I am not being an audiophile elitest. My current amp is from 1984 & cd player is one of the first phillips with wired audio plugs. Even really expensive wireless hi-fi equipment seems to sound better hardwired in the reviews. I realise it is not pratical for a lot of people to play music loud nowadays in shared buildings. Looking into Dali speakers. |

Yes I am still buying Cd's |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
mp3 and flac thru various devices. The last physical media I purchased was Tomorrow's Harvest, which seems an appropriate place to stop. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
i live in a shared house, i cannot make/play music in here. its annoying, sometimes tiresome to listen to music with headphones. poor me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually i could, we have a radio we can play quite loud in the kitchen, but i dont like the idea of the others to listen to my music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you could pre record yourself doing dj talk in a funny voice between your tracks so they think its on the radio |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
embarassing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do your housemates listen to? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they have good tastes, one likes afro but listens to any, one listens to house from laptop speakers, the older watches woodstock artists late at night on tv |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats pretty good, you could have ended up with people who play happy hardcore at 3 in the morning or something |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes for that reason i want to keep it quiet while im here |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes i rarely get to switch my speakers on, gf always has tv on, i dont mind headphones but i prefer listening to speakers, its nice not having something dangling out of your ears |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes speakers is better. should be that headphones is the exception |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll try to move to a cottage later in live |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
amazing. i know ill go back to all the music i did while i was here if i get the chance to move out |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah with then get a rack of hardware synths and bobs your uncle, i imagine you in one of those old towers in venice, or like a isolated island off the coast |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats my dream to live in a tower in a forest with just my music and books |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
like gandalf basically but into techno |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
old venice houses are so awesome |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes outside of the tourism it looks like a very interesting place, imagine what is stored away in the doge's palace |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
been there many times, mainly as tourist, even on a new years eve covered with snow, another time to the celebration for the city patron saint, to a girl i met on an italian percussion forum (from the years i was saying people that i play percussions, but i didn't) , she invited me a couple of days at her place, i smoked, eaten fish, drinked local wine, been on a motorboat while there were fireworks on the lagoon |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
she was like one of these girls that look like men right.. not a tranny |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
loooooooool im not sure what you mean but it made me laugh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do you mean she had short hair? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
she had ugly dreads, she was short, fat, with the face of a man |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the kind of beauties you see in raves lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
did she let you spunk on her man face? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wasnt molested, i think she knew by herself that sex was out of discussion |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
glad it wasnt to awkward for either of you then, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, the only embarassing moment was when she asked me to play her congas on the boat. i had to sat no |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
looooooool classic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
when a woman asks you to play her bongos you should always oblige |
||||||||

good topic I still play a lot of formats tape cd wav/mp3 vinyl minidisc I have an old pair of wharfdale speakers and an old Marantz amp. I also have a decent 2.1 logitech set that can blow the roof off (or should i say floor, we have a floor above us). My neighbours can be pretty noisy with their tvs/hifis themselves, so I have no qualms turning the dial up. I feel lucky with my gf because she is actually very open minded about some of the stuff that I blast through the speakers. It's not like I do it all day/night long - I think I keep a good balance. - prob not the most heat efficient but that little nook is just perfect. (this img only seems to display when I refresh it once) |

|
|
yes but not from sacks of onions |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Cool to hear portnoy. I don't understand what stuff people have in their houses if no tunes. records/cd/tape/minidiscs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ive got a usb key, i'll have the chance to play shit in a decent car stereo.. finally |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nice man. Good to listen to your music on speakerz. Not just good but important I think, for the soul. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i used to have an old solid state rotel amplifier it was really good, now i have some pretty decent pc speakers and some cheaper sennheiser earphones, they both sound pretty good to me, i know they arent optimal and are probably not great for making music with either, but needs must |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i used to have massive speakers connected to the rotel amp it was brill, perhaps if i live in a detached cottage or something in the future i can get a similar setup |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
All my CDs have been put to wav. I love my vinyl collection to bits. Sennheiser M2ie ear buds for walking around, or bed. I've stopped paying ridiculous money for headphones. For now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes me too, cos they break fairly frequently |
