2-All-Ears,
I really need some help finding this CD. It's
Denon Anechoic Orchestral Music Recording and it's seems very hard to locate. A copy is fine, or the original.
Thanks much.

Can anyone help me locate this CD? Even a copy is fine. It seems very hard to locate.
Thanks so much!

I have recently become interested in thinking about building some of my own speakers. Being new though, a lot of the technicalities are very hard to understand.

I was wondering if anyone knows a good place to go to read about what different driver specs mean (Qts, Vas. SPL, ect.) and how they relate to one another, and what some of the different graphs that speaker applications show you account for (Transfer function magnitide/phase, Impedance, Group Delay, etc.).

I'm a bit confused and I hope someone can help me out.

What happened to the review Stereophile was preparing on this player?

I'm in the process of finding the right set of speakers for me in the <$3000 area. In doing this, I've found a literally enormous set of reviews containing verbiage such as "these speakers are fantastic, except for lovers of electronica or rap music," and "hip hop lovers should look elsewhere."

I understand that electronica isn't the preferred material of many audiophiles. And I understand that from a content perspective, hip hop is very polarizing, and that there are a great number of very poorly recorded/produced hip hop albums.
