Hi Peter - I confirm my order but I will go with 50cm length.

The only version I have is the stock Time Out and the SQ is not really very good. At least it is nothing like as good as the stock "Time Further Out" which is relatively very good. I think it is "Charles Matthew Hallelujah" track 3 (but I would have to check to be sure) that has some very deep bass. It sounds as though the stage is moving or something but it can very clearly be heard.

But easily the best SQ I have heard from any of the Brubeck albums is "Live at Carnegie Hall" it is a superb album. Check out "Castilian Drums" Joe Morello is on very fine form.

Well so it seemed!! - I had not set out to test low bass it is just that playing those familiar tracks I just did not remember such low bass and I certainly do not remember previously being moved to turn off the sound 6 times in order to work out where the bass was coming from. Of course my memory may be failing - that is more than a distinct possibility!!

Cheers

That is great news Mani I am really glad to hear that you got your bass sorted out.

I must say, however, that when I posted "The Earth Moved" it was after the mods to my computer which produced sub low bass that really does sound as if the house foundations are moving (sometimes!!) - and that was after you heard them last ha ha.

Anyway I can't wait to come along and hear your MkII's again with added bass (if of course I get an invite!).

Cheers

No problem but I may go for longer anyway just to give some flexibility in terms of equipment placing but will let you know before I order.

Cheers

Peter - looking again at the cable maybe it does not bend like normal USB i/c so mine may need to be longer. No problem we can sort it out later (assuming you still like it in 2 days!!).

Paul

Hi Peter - count me in length 30cm usb a to b

Cheers

Ha - maybe some underpinning to the foundations is called for before the next upgrade.

 

It is pretty quiet hereabouts in the evenings but very occasionally a lorry passes slowly by at the back of the house. I know when it does because there is a deep rumble that feels like the house is moving.

Recently I was listening to an album (actually some Stekpanna) when a lorry passed slowly by. I knew it was a lorry because the house rumbled - I could feel it as much as hear it. This happened a few times during the track I was listening to so I switched xx off and listened again. The lorry stopped moving. This happened three times during the track and each time the lorry stopped moving. I did not really believe it could be the hifi and being lazy I did not bother to get up to see if there was indeed a lorry outside.

Anyway the same thing happened on another track the following night. This time though it sounded as though someone was firmly planting the heal of their foot on the floor upstairs. Again the house rumbled. I still did not consider that this really could be the hifi until again 3 times I switched it off to find that the deep rumble disappeared.

So there it is it took about six times of switching xx off before I could start to accept that the sound as actually coming out of these Orelino's.

I don't remember bass quiet like this before the mods to the computer though. Awesome!!!

Just a thought though - maybe there is something wrong with the house!!

Great album thx for the recommendation - anyone who can get Laurie Anderson to do some narration on their album deserves attention.



Cheers

Am very tempted myself!!
