Brendel, Schubert AND Esoteric? Obviously a must-have.

That's what he has his raffle-dealer network headed up by DannyB for.

I actually paid the listed 3,143¥ for this one!

Nice video!

But in this case, someone else has decided for him that an upgrade was needed. What then?

Heh, no thanks to you. Really though, they sound pretty amazing to me.

The second of the Kaneko-Esoteric series, also with dual mic recordings. Probably the best recorded instrumental music I have heard in a while, assuming of course you like the material

I like the RB300, not sure why people would consider the Grace an upgrade...

I think experimentally I have found the more subs the better. I have tried four subs placed around the room and felt that to be the most convincing setup. I am not sure this matches the theory or not

I think you would have lower distortion to sum the two channels and send the sum to each sub.

The easiest way to do it is using the analogue inputs. Buy something like a Behringer CX2310. I did this before and it worked great.

I think it's better to just get the connectors on either end of a box. I suppose it's easy to buy the components separately and find a nice Hammond case to use. I think this is a nice project for a rainy day. Any experience controlling these via a digital output and then routing signal to the other full range speakers via an analogue output? I would have to do something like this as well. Hm. Gets one thinking.

Naaman: I like those plate amps, but I have a tapped horn and not sure if they would interfere with operation, so I would consider a bussel or completely separate enclosure. Ever seen a separate enclosure?

Got 50 staples removed and replaced with horrid smelling adhesive and what looks like tape. OK.

Me:

Oops! I am not sure how I missed that helpful info, thanks! Here's the intersection between the catalogues: Prokoviev: Lieutenant Kije - Stravinsky: Song of the Nightingale* (Reiner) The Reiner Sound Rachmaninoff: Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini - Falla: Nights in the Gardens of Spain (Rubinstein-Reiner-Jorda) Prokofiev: Alexander Nevsky (Reiner) Khachaturian: The Masquerade Suite - Kabalevsky: The Comedians (Kiril Kondrashin) Rozsa: Violin Concerto - Benjamin: Romantic Fantasy (Heifetz) Lalo: Symphonie Espagnole (Henryk Szeryng) Debussy: Iberia - Ravel: Alborado Del Gracioso, Valses Nobels Et Sentimentales (Reiner) * included for Lt. Kije; Song of the Nightingale was included with Scheherazade in the Sony SACD series. Edit: no. Symmetric difference? Whatever. The new ones. There.

Isobaric

I posted those in the HF thread. Sort of running low on those. I really only seem to smoke a few brands, mainly Tatuaje and Illusione and their ilk, the occasional Fuente perhaps ... they are up at the lounge but not more than a couple boxes.

Working on optimizing my space to fit another box. I would like it to be Cohiba something, but need to know what fits first.

In a word: yes. Though I missed what you told me earlier. Science!

So, one complaint so far with these APO releases... No track numbers listed!!

Pausing the science for a bit (though I would say the original Sony recordings must be the best bang-for-the-buck in the remaster hi-Rez classical scene)
