The Signal Path of Shame. The Signal Path of Virtue. July 26, 2016. August 6, 2016. Jack White aims to play the first vinyl record in space. With the aid of a ‘space-proof’ turntable and high-altitude balloon, the singer’s Third Man Records will try to beam Carl Sagan’s A Glorious Dawn from orbit…. The Guardian link writers came up with. Now that’s quite good…! The musical ‘observer effect’. July 23, 2016. August 6, 2016. Listening test being held up as the Gold Standard for audio science. And that the h...
Vinyl sales overtake digital | The Rational Audiophile
https://therationalaudiophile.wordpress.com/2016/12/06/vinyl-sales-overtake-digital
The Signal Path of Shame. The Signal Path of Virtue. Vinyl sales overtake digital. December 6, 2016. December 8, 2016. It seems that a milestone was passed last week. When UK vinyl sales hit 2.5m versus digital’s 2.1m. Vinyl has enjoyed eight straight years of growth. I just had a quick look to see if I could find an actual ‘Top Tips for Mastering Vinyl’ example for the above. The first site I looked at. In other words, once vinyl becomes a major consideration, actual recording techniques are dictated by...

The Signal Path of Shame. The Signal Path of Virtue. The Machine Learning delusion. October 16, 2016. October 22, 2016. This morning my personal biological computer detected a correlation between these two articles:. Sony’s SenseMe – A Superior Smart Shuffle. Machine learning: why we mustn’t be slaves to the algorithm. It’s all good. And the algorithm’s effects go beyond mere music:. The author of the second article takes a more sceptical view. He notes the dumbness of Machine Learning. And it kind of do...
Later… series 49 | The Rational Audiophile

The Signal Path of Shame. The Signal Path of Virtue. Later… series 49. September 19, 2016. September 28, 2016. It seems to have come around very quickly, but Later with Jools is back. I very much. Liked both songs by M83, and enjoyed Sting and his band’s songs too. I thought The Kings of Leon’s debut performance on this programme back in 2003 was great – I even bought the CD – but they don’t do it for me these days. Auditory Scene Analysis →.

The Signal Path of Shame. The Signal Path of Virtue. September 27, 2016. September 28, 2016. However, the seminal work. In this field includes the following analogy for hearing:. Which is the most powerful one? Which one is closer? Is the wind blowing? Has any large object been dropped suddenly into the lake? Of course, when we listen to reproduced music with an audio system we are, in effect, duplicating the motion of the handkerchiefs using two paddles in. Later… series 49. September 19, 2016.

The enthusiast's audio webzine. The Rational Audio System. I wouldn’t be the first to question the price of high-end audio equipment and what seems increasingly to be a disconnect between asking prices and the reasonable means of most music-lovers. Reading the online reports from audiophile shows, it is not uncommon these days to see systems – nay, individual components – costing as much as a new car. Theoretically correct or optimal. What do I mean by “theoretically correct or optimal”? Time domains, ye...
Archimago's Musings: MUSINGS: On Audiophile Debates and "Placebos do in fact work..."

A 'more objective' take on audiophile topics among other thoughts. Twitter: @Archimago. Tuesday, 7 July 2015. MUSINGS: On Audiophile Debates and "Placebos do in fact work.". Let's think for a moment what "audiophilia" is about. We' love music so the likelihood is that 'we' have lots of albums to listen to. That's one of the great things about computer audio - a unified, easily accessible library. (This is of course not necessarily the case for everyone.). Is it "experiential knowledge" in the subjective ...

A 'more objective' take on audiophile topics among other thoughts. Twitter: @Archimago. Sunday, 7 June 2015. MEASUREMENTS: The Effect of Speaker Grills. Clothed" or "Naked". What's the difference? A quick measurement for this week. I was curious the other day as I was doing some room measurements what effect speaker grills make. My Paradigm Signature S8 V3's have typical fabric and plastic grills up front. Simple question - How much difference does the grill make to the sound of the speaker? 20-degrees l...

Perhaps it is even best to suppress it: muddle it up with some inter-channel crosstalk like vinyl does, or even listen in mono. Because their effects are not so obvious in mono, p.
