On Saturday night, in New York City, upstairs in Manhattan’s 54th Street Yamaha piano studios, which by the way is very close to that other keyboard shrine, Steinway Hall, <I>Stereophile</I>’s own contributing editor Bob Reina and his group, Attention Screen recorded their third live album for Stereophile Records, a label owned and run by editor in chief/sound engineer John Atkinson, our fearless leader. Just so there is no confusion, I mean that last term as an endearing salute rather than in the sense of Rocky & Bullwinkle’s Germanesque dictator of Pottsylvania.

To Have & To Hold

I was directed to this video via the <a href="http://twitter.com/stereophilemag"><i>Stereophile</i&gt; Twitter page</a>, in a tweet from <a href="http://blog.bowers-wilkins.com/sound/formats/to-have-and-to-hold-vinyl-… & Wilkins</a>, who’d seen it first at <a href="http://www.audiophilia.com/wp/?p=4383">Audiophilia</a&gt;. Moments after I’d watched the video, <i>Stereophile</i> contributor Jim Austin also sent me the link.

The audio specialist dealer is alive and well

I had a recent experience that I thought was worth writing about. I live in the boondocks of northwestern Washington, 2 hours from Seattle and almost an hour from the nearest small city, Bellingham, with a population of about 75,000. Remarkably, Bellingham supports a specialty audio-video shop, Reference Media

High frequency issues

Hi, wonder if anyone can help. I have recently purchased some used equipment all from different place. I am using an Arcam alpha 7se cd, alpha 9 integrated and alpha 9 power amps with linn keilidh speakers I am using linn phone cables and linn speaker cables. The room is pretty large. Problem Im having is distortion at high frequency not at particulary high volume. The cables are the second set I have tried, 1st ones were very basic but had the same problem with them. I am also lacking in bass punch. Would be great to get some advice to fix this annoying problem. Any ideas????????
