But will it ever see the light of day?

@Mithrandir41 Let's hope not, or the whole project will surely be squashed. Join the forum. All will be revealed.

Very nice. Watched the comparative first 8:55 of ANH posted there, and it looks awesome. All other versions are oversaturated and have a magenta color shift (human skin looks terrible).

Me want.

The BW2 showed me how good the HD600 really is! That combo is the gateway drug tho

Don't say that. I'm trying to stay off the hard stuff.

The journey between was educational as your auditory skills improved and preferences may have changed.

Its a fantastic amp. I consider myself fortunate to own one! :)

Uggh I hate getting mired in album master nervosa...(CD mastering in my case)

Yeah, just emailed Omnivore Recordings about their remastering last week about the remastered Jellyfish catalog.

They responded that it was done to enhance audio quality and dynamic range, not squash it. I may get a single release to test the waters.

I hate wasting money on crappily-mastered music. I feel tricked when that happens.

move to CO, we had that in Feb. :)

Never got into streaming for that reason, the feeling of "renting" the music.

If you're using Cobalt you're doing it wrong.

@FallingObjects, I think that would be more appropriately called the "Never mind the Bollocks" mode

Where's my Audio Science Review mode at?

congrats. it's heart-exploding stuff to see that musical spark in your kids. for the first time today i got to see my 4yr old daughter sit at the keys and belt out her own songs. it made no sense to me lyrically or musically, but i was so proud.

Nice! I sold all my TOTL shit and spent the money on instruments for my kids instead. Way more satisfying than the headphone merry-go-round, that's for sure.

Hope your kids all let you'll play too!

Interesting fact, they were originaly very large and required 2 people to play, until they were replaced by the church organ.

Looks like the old krk did too though. Also why do none of these have front mounted controls? My older JBL monitors do...

I think rear facing controls are standard because most studio installations will be set once and left alone

Yup, the volumes will all be controlled at the board

NAMM isn't far from me. Wondering if I should go

I'm going again on Sunday. I'll check it out.

Mostly Sennheiser parts probably.

Funny you should say that, the article in question is a LCD-2 pre-fazor (I've owned and sold LCD-2F and LCD-X as well). Every time I am definitely sure HD6x0 is better this LCD-2 hits back with some irrational but entirely convincing argument

I definitely regretted selling my LCD-2 pre-fazor because I listened to it one last time after I sold it before boxing it up. I needed your post about 8 mos ago, lol.

I also ended up with an LCD-2 pre-fazor. Mines from Sept 2010, very early with the wood pegs, fabric headband (been replaced), and "audez'e research" something-or-other on the grills. Despite having 3 Code-Xs I still keep my "Old 2s" around. They have some magic I could never put my finger quite on.

It completely depends on which files were uploaded by the artist. I've used Bandcamp both as a producer and a consumer. I think it'll go up to 24/192 if that's what the artist uploaded.

Yep I find these days actually more often than not the downloads are 24bit. As if Bandcamp wasn't awesome enough, a nice bonus.

Way cool. Straight from the master. So many pro audio guys do everything in 24/48 or 24/96.

Styrofoam peanuts are the Debil!

Those things are ecologically disgusting to begin with...it's like insult to injury.

It's great when the medicational is recreational. Sometimes, "it's necessary"...

...Damn yes! I keep a bottle of codeine linctus, strictly for dry coughs that won't allow sleep. That way it last years, but once, I guess I used the wrong spoon size, or something, and fell asleep in a pleasant haze --- understanding better how this stuff actually ruins lives.

But I hate it when people get prudish about stuff that has nice side effects. If it feels nice... enjoy!
