I'm a very reluctant audiophile, someone who quite contentedly has listened to thousands of cds on a boombox until the last few months.
Somehow - and I didn't set out to do this - I started hearing what I was missing/what didn't sound right and...once it happened, there was no way to 'unhear' the problems.
So I did what many of you have done, reading extensively - particularly at the lowest of low-end equipment.
I love Stereophile's budget column, but even there the balance is - for good reason, no doubt - on equipment in the $1000 range.
Hello audio freaks,
since more as 30 years I'm working in audio area, hear many loudspeaker reproductions of formidable tonal accuracy. But increasingly the discernment arise, true spatial depiction never happen by conventionally loudspeaker reproduction. Each primary source causing hundreds of mirror sources in all possible positions beyond the recording room walls, no chance for recreate such complex spatial pattern by some uncertain positioned phantom sources between a small numbers of reproduction channels.
In my opinion some of the best jazz recordings were made at VanGelder studios in New Jersey and this recording is no exception. Sonny Stitt is fast becoming my favorite sax artist. His hard bop style and exceptional melodies are a pleasure to listen to in hi-fi. Team up Sonny with this ensemble and you have a recording that is both a pleasure a listen to and exceptional on any good system. I highly recommend this disk *****
Does anybody else out there have a Cairn Fog v3? Or even a v2 if it has the same thing. Looking for impressions on the different digital filter settings. I've just had mine a couple months and haven't done any systematic listening with the different settings.
Btw, does Cairn not qualify for a Stereophile review?
thanks.
