Wilderness Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 The LA Times has a story about two new music bars that encourage active listening. They only play vinyl, and one has Klipschorn speakers: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/la-et-ms-hi-fi-bars-20181004-story.html Cool story! audiobomber 1 Link to comment
esldude Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Thanks for posting that. Interesting idea that I hope takes off. I knew of a disco club in the late 1970's that had 4 K-horns mounted in the roof above the colored lights around the dance floor. All driven by a NAD 3020. It could get loud. The shame of course was all they played was that awful disco music. I hated it. And always keep in mind: Cognitive biases, like seeing optical illusions are a sign of a normally functioning brain. We all have them, it’s nothing to be ashamed about, but it is something that affects our objective evaluation of reality. Link to comment

PorkChop Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Quote from the article: "When the sound is good, it is all you need. It can be as captivating as watching a movie." This resonates so true, I wish I had thought of it. Music WAS the entertainment for me and select compadres back in the days before MTV. Now it seems impossible to find any new friends who are music-oriented anywhere near the same way. Link to comment

Great quote from Carl Sagan, by the way. It is timeless, but it has never been more apropos than it is now unfortunately. esldude 1 Link to comment
