Ending the day with Japanese jazz, Scottish Whisky and an English book in the garden
Fiz um sisteminha "semi-vintage" pras sessões de leitura noturnas
Tem que dar um jeito de usar os CDs que estavam mofando no armário. Mais alguém aí usando CD em 2026? Rsrsrs
I tried Dolny Atmos on Amazon Music and my subjective experience was that it:
1 - Stretches and "rounds" the soundstage a bit. Sure. That's kinda cool.
2 - But it kills the timbre. It's like it just "smooths" everything out, like autotune. Everything loses "texture". The vocals lose grit and the instruments lose attack and decay. Plus, some instruments get burried in some songs.
Overall is not worth the trade-off (for me, at least). Soundstage is more of a speaker than a headphone thing anyway...
The reasons for music to sound better on speakers than on anything else are obvious to me, but I was wondering what (if something) could cause an album to sound worse on speakers.
The reasons for the opposite are obvious, but I was wondering what could cause an album to sound better on headphones.
Mine in no particular order are:
- Tranquilizer - Oneohtrix Point Never (I'm always finding new details).
- Sunrise at the Gorge - Tipper (The eletronic album with the smoothest, less sharp sound I ever heard. Just an absolute pleasure).
- Overdriver - The Hellacopters (Perfectly captures the warm tube distortion sound of the 70s).
- The Trondheim Concertos (Focuses on timbre and the recorded space. Highly imersive)
- Goatlord - Darkthrone ("Underproduction" is much harder to do well than "overproduction").
Os meus acho que seriam, em ordem aleatória:
- Tranquilizer - Oneohtrix Point Never (Estou sempre achando novos detalhes nele).
- Sunrise at the Gorge - Tipper (O álbum eletrônico com os sons com timbre menos "agressivo" que já ouvi. Uma delícia)
- Overdriver - The Hellacopters (Captura perfeitamente o som "quente" de distorção de tubo dos anos 70).
- The Trondheim Concertos (Foco no timbre e no espaço gravado. Muito imersivo).
- Goatlord - Darkthrone ("Underproduction" é mais difícil de fazer certo do que "overproduction").
