MrSkippyJ Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 But no matter what they pull out, you still want it to sound exactly as recorded, not anything else though, right?

MrSkippyJ Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Right, which is what ducky was saying, if it isn't a live recording it shouldn't sound like one. Also, hotel California is tits in your truck!

White Lightning Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 My point is this, Take a disc like lets just pick a random band, say Bon Jovi. It was cut in a studio, no attention was given to things like good stereo seperation, just a vanilla recording in stereo.Yes, the better the recording ... the better you will find the stage and image ... I've found that most SQ judges use older disc for the better recordings verses the newer versions ... I mean, if you play vannila ice do you say, wow the digital drum track really sounds like it 4 ft to the left of the singer! ?This is what the normally refer to as Dynamics ... Now a good SQ system can give some depth and stage to it, but the source is only as good as the source. I could be wrong here, but i think some artists put more work into their sound than others.When you can start telling the imperfections in your music, you are building a nice setup ... Also, hotel California is tits in your truck!Thank you Sir ... Wait until you see my next front stage upgrade ... EDIT: had it all planned out in my head, but lost track while typing ... hope some of it makes since ...

Jessica Posted October 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Well cableguy, if i lived near you i would come listen to your setup. But i am in Kansas so maybe in the future i will drive out your way. Also, this thread has been pretty informative. I tried that CD i bought and found a few flaws pretty fast. But, i did get rid of an issue with my tweeters kind of washing out certain things like some crash symbols. It didn't do it with all of them, but sometimes you could tell it just ran together a bit. At least that cd tells you what to listen for and how it should sound so you arent just guessing what it should sound like. Of course, without a reference sometimes it's hard to make progress. You SQ guys, do you help each other or is it one of those things where you keep all your secrets to yourselves? It would seem hard to judge your own system with a point of reference right?
