Article: Realism vs Accuracy For Audiophiles | Part 2: The Real Sounds Of Live Music


Recommended Posts

Got to say I wasn't aware of this album and am giving it a listen. I think it's pretty good. Of course, I'm a fan of Miles' electric and also his funky music.

Don't have an issue with him not playing something people or critics call Jazz. And why should I be upset if he uses a wah-wah pedal? Don't get me wrong, I like his straight Jazz, too, but I don't care what category music is thought to be in. (Note: just to be clear, these comments aren't directed at Bluesman.)

 

As far as the topic: from what I've read, this is another album recorded over time (70-74) and then edited and mixed together from various pieces by Miles and his producer to create a finished product. So it's a good example of a studio product that has a created soundstage, etc. and we aren't listening to anything we should assume is real sounding. 

Main listening (small home office):

Main setup: Surge protector +>Isol-8 Mini sub Axis Power Strip/Isolation>QuietPC Low Noise Server>Roon (Audiolense DRC)>Stack Audio Link II>Kii Control>Kii Three (on their own electric circuit) >GIK Room Treatments.

Secondary Path: Server with Audiolense RC>RPi4 or analog>Cayin iDAC6 MKII (tube mode) (XLR)>Kii Three .

Bedroom: SBTouch to Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Setup.
Living Room/Kitchen: Ropieee (RPi3b+ with touchscreen) + Schiit Modi3E to a pair of Morel Hogtalare. 

All absolute statements about audio are false :)
