The last time I was in England, I happened to be rummaging through some boxes in my mother's garage, boxes containing photographs, my old school books, concert programs, diaries, postcards—all the bric-a-brac you collect throughout your life that you'll never have a need for and can never discard. If anything, such rubbish is perhaps the nearest thing to roots that anyone can have these days. Among the boxes was an amplifier that had been an everyday companion of mine for many years, the vintage Vox AC100 I had used to amplify my Fender bass when on the road.

Never released on CD

One sometimes-touted reason to own a turntable is to listen to the ever-shrinking universe of albums that have never been released digitally. Yet, I do not think I have ever run into one. Of course, any record can be ripped and put on a CD nowadays, but that, of course, is not what I'm talking about.

So, my question to you, fellow vinyl-enthusiasts: What albums do you own or know of that have never been released (officially) on a digital format?

Bass Traps as Mid/High absorbers

1) Would it be a good idea to make the mid/high absorbers at first reflection points as 4" thick plain OC703 panels as it would increase the low frequency absorption. Or for the fact that these panels are in the walls (as opposed to corners) they will not be effective as bass traps.
2) Could someone also explain me why the lower frequency sounds gather up at corners?

Stereo Sound Japan 2007 Grand Prix

So I stopped by Kinokuniya (a Japanese equivalent of Barnes & Noble) near the NYPL, to kill some time. Went to the magazine rack and saw what is perhaps the most gorgeous looking stereo mag anywhere. It's a quarterly, so it's THICK. But as can be expected from a Japanese aesthetic, the magazine looked impressive, with lots of great pics. Some of the most droolworthy audio-porn I've ever seen in my life.
