System Sounds - 2018

It could be wonderful or a cause of a lot of strife, just because of the recording. But it would be interesting.

Searching youtube I came across a big mega budget system that sounded the same coming out of my iPad as a beer budget system.

Like those many folks who love to stick their smart phone up at concerts. You can only record a fraction of the experience.

Watching a record going around is probably as exciting as it'll get..

eh?

It's not April 1st.

Surely you are going to get no idea of how the system sounds. You are going to hear

a) the recording system

b) whatever the file quality is

c) the characteristics of whatever you play it back on.

Is this a joke?

I wouldn’t mind seeing a video of Emre taking a hammer to a stuck Burndy lock collar.

Actually, such a recording does reveal, to considerable extent, the sound of the room and the power response of the speakers (due to dispersion/off-axis-response of the speakers).  I have done this, listening to the recording of course with headphones.  As for the video part, not so sure...

If the recording of the personal system is done by a high end hd audio recorder, like nagra VI, and sent as a file to this forum, we would certainly be able to have a little idea of the sound quality of this system.  But It would  not be decoded by our ears but by our audio system.  So finally I seems to me that the Obsydian ‘s project is hardly possible to realize.

This is fabulous sounding even streamed off You tube  - Stereophiles Micheal Fremer plays a Jazz Record - I think the Cartridge is a Lyra Etna and the Turntable a Continuum and the arm a Swedish Analog Technology . A tonearm Micheal thinks is incredible as it should be retailing at 30 K......over 180 K of TT
