Best recorded albums of all time?
Please keep in mind that it isn't just the recording, but the mastering, particularly in the case of recordings from the '50s through the '70s which have been remastered (on both analog and digital formats) over and over again. In particular, many recent remasters have been less about extracting...- regnaDkciN

Another "which entry-level headphone should I buy?" thread.
After getting by with various earbuds and ultra-cheap phones for some time, I'm looking to get a decent pair to use at home with my computer (eventually to be fitted with a DAC/headphone amp) and iPhone. The main factors I'm concerned with are: -- No more than $300, and preferably less than...- regnaDkciN

The Audiophile Network, BBSes, and The Good Old Days
Yes. J10 (as he was known on TAN) started off at TAS, then moved over to Stereophile after about a year (when TAS got in some financial trouble). I seem to recall he lasted at Stereophile for a number of years; I really don't remember when he left.- regnaDkciN

The Audiophile Network, BBSes, and The Good Old Days
It looks like I found this thread relatively late...when we first were talking about making this a separate thread, it was when another thread went off-topic with reminiscences about The Audiophile Network (TAN), for which Steve Eddy was technical adviser. I don't know if anyone else here was a...- regnaDkciN

How the Mighty TAS (The Absolute Sound) Would've Fallen Without a Bunch of wide-eyed TEENAGERS - Interest in this story????
Sorry to hear about your wife's illness. I have the information from that issue; just ask me when you're ready to proceed.- regnaDkciN

As I keep trying to tell Mike, I have that issue right here on the desk, have provided him some of the info from there on this very thread, and am ready to provide anything else he needs. I can't understand why I keep pointing that out, and he keeps ignoring me while asking if anyone else has...- regnaDkciN

Questions about older Headroom products and Crossfeed...
Yes, I tried a couple yesterday, and they certainly seemed to make a difference, at least with cheap earbuds. I wish the iPhone had a workable crossfeed app, but the only such player they have (Rondo), although adding a sense of space, takes centered vocals and shifts them slightly...- regnaDkciN

Questions about older Headroom products and Crossfeed...
While I've been an audiophile for many years, I never got much into headphone listening, except as a "last resort." The problem, for me, is that I favor classical music, where soundstaging is more important. The sound of an orchestra compressed into a thin, almost one-dimensional line between my...- regnaDkciN

You probably do -- James Walley, usually found there, when not discussing audio matters, teamed up with Lonnie Brownell in political debates versus Doug Blackburn and Yogi Saxena. Since I now seem to be traveling down Memory Lane, I'm recalling two technological "developments" of the time that...- regnaDkciN

Your mention of the W-2 sure brings back memories. At just about that time (maybe a couple of years earlier) the family-run computer-game developer I worked for ran into some pretty bad financial trouble when a couple of our major publishers decided they didn't feel like paying us for work...- regnaDkciN

Not exactly a GREEN alien, but an alien nonetheless -- volume 20, issue 107, july/August 1996, theme "Out Of This World Speakers." I'm pretty sure it's the right issue, since it mentions having just moved the offices back to Sea Cliff, complete with a picture of the house. Oh, and your name on...- regnaDkciN

HDCD list
Quote: It may have already been observed here, but it appears the entire The Golden Road set (collected albums 1967-73) is likewise "HDCD" only in the sense of having the flag set, but no PE, no TF, and minimum and maximum gain of 0.0 dB.- regnaDkciN

Mike -- For what it's worth, this "middle-aged pocket-protector audiophile" just joined this site because of this thread. I've been out of touch with the audio press for awhile, so it was only yesterday that I found out HP had left TAS. Can't say I was completely surprised, but it's...- regnaDkciN
