    What are you listening to right now #64

    Long, long overdue for a new release and really enjoying it. Seems she's rediscovered her mojo.

    Decent metadata in your music files - do you care?

    Metadata is the stuff that allows me to do things like find all performances of Jersey Girl in my music

    Decent metadata in your music files - do you care?

    Yip, when it gets it right it's great, but Roon often doesn't. Way, way too many unidentified albums (with the only reason being Roon doesn't have the track listings or the track times or entire album not in TiVO or MusicBrainz and thus not identified in Roon, no genres assigned and ignored by...

    Decent metadata in your music files - do you care?

    If you’re around the average age of most here (myself included) I’m surprised you can read a cd booklet 🤪

    Yeh, I was not referring to ’streaming‘ content off a local server or storage medium. Clearly this thread is aimed at that very audience - in that context I too am streaming.

    New hifi-adjacent gizmo

    Thanks. If you have no use for yours I’d not be averse to taking it off your hands if it’s glitch free - seems it’s not yet available for general purchase.

    ReplayGain, is anyone else using it?

When listening to albums I have replaygain disabled, when letting LMS...

    New ATC C4mk2 sub

    I made my own using high density rock wool (Uthermo 8) cut into triangles of 600x600x800 stacked floor to ceiling in all four corners. My room was fully treated - diffusers, first reflection absorption etc. The end result was superb and really let the magic of ATC shine. Hoping to recreate that...

    New ATC C4mk2 sub

    No speaker can produce decent bass in an acoustically poor room. I have 100ASLTs also. In a 7mx5mx2.8m room without bass traps the null around 40-60 hz all but swallowed the bass. Adding chunk traps completely transformed that.
