    Music You Strongly Dislike (Just For Fun)

    I can't stand the Grateful Dead!! There you go. I am pleased that no one said YES, as I am a fan. I haven't run in to that many YES fans over the years.

    I just listened to some Magnats, the smaller towers and center, and am no longer wary of them, I was pleasantly surprised.

    Revel PerformaBe speakers vs. older Paradigm Signature V3 speakers?

    My advice would be, go and listen to the Founder Series, I heard them at the same time I heard the Monitor Audio Silver 500 7Gs and they sounded superior. Is there somewhere you can go and have a listen? Otherwise, just go with the Revels, but order from somewhere where you can send them back if...

    Polk Reserve R200: Spinorama and measurements (a really nice surprise!)

    So today I had the opportunity to hear the R100 speakers and was more than just impressed, the soundstage was far superior to the tower speakers I listened to at the same time, which really was the KEF Q950s and the Polk Signature Elite 60s. The R100s pretty much disappeared, so the R200s are...

    Bose 901 Series VI Active Equalizer Measurements

    Here is Erin's review, including with DIRAC. The most interesting thing to me is, at the end, he talks about what if it wasn't all full range drivers but instead used drivers that could perform the way they should. I have often thought about keeping the direct reflecting design but using drivers...

    Bose 901 Series VI Active Equalizer Measurements

    We had 901 knock offs when I was a kid, and we loved them. I noticed that Erin seemed to really enjoy his time with the speakers, pretty much saying they are just different. I also used to love the sound of my 301s, even though I now know they didn't produce accurate sound reproduction. When the...

    How Dangerous is AI?

    If something becomes self-aware, it can't be assumed that it will like us. If we come up with rules, laws, protocols, no way everyone will follow them. I expect it's just a matter of time. https://www.livescience.com/48972-stephen-hawking-artificial-intelligence-threat.html
