My SNAPs keeps shouting at me

Posted by: kid spatula on 05 February 2004

I got a dual rail modded snaps at the weekend (feeding a 42.5 + nap 90 into credos - all fed by a rega p25). It sounds great with some recordings(Neil Young, Stevie Wonder) ie everything is better defined and grooveier - but shouts at me with others (My Bloody Valentine, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher) ie the highs and mids make my ears hurt a bit... which never used to happen.

Do I need to play the "let's shift the speakers around" game?

Or am I just hearing, for the first time, that MBV, AFX and SQPR all produce *really* harsh sounding music?

give it time to settle down and see if it's the same in a month or so. If it is and you don't like it , then look at tweeking the set-up to get more out of it.

A month?!

Wasn't there a thread about it only taking a couple of hours for naim stuff to warm up?

I will give it another 3 days - that will have been a week. If it's still troublesome after that I'll try shoving bits of toast into it and cutting up old wellies for use as supports.

Or try mana....

Or send it off to avonda
