Ever hear the adage “What was old, is new again”?  So true in the 2-Channel world with vinyl’s, turntables, speakers, headphones, amplifiers and the like.  In the ’80s and ’90s, culture was going from the big boom box to getting tunes on your watch.  The mad rush to be as small as possible left a lot to be desired as technology strained to keep up with the quality of the original piece.  Fast forward as an entire generation learned that newer is not always better after listening to the same song on vinyl versus a digital download.  Luckily, sound engineers and technology have advanced to provide a balanced solution.  But, let’s be real nothing compares to a real cool turn table in your music room that also delivers the whole package.

Okay, we know….you “I” gens (Internet generation) have understood technology since the day you were born but for the rest of us let’s talk Amps.  The previous blog, “Feeling Hi-Res” summarized how music from the Internet is compressed or squeezed down to make the files compatible with our devices such as phones, computers, and the like.   The quality of headphones is a significant factor but one must also consider the amplifier to fully engaged in the original masterpiece.    The degree to which it is heard will depend on the device selected.  Each offers a different satisfaction; Chord Mojo, Audioquest Dragonfly, and countless others.

Music streaming has renewed great interest in home audio but does the digital sound evoke the same feelings as what you used to play in the “old days” when raging at your party with the speakers to the max?

Much of the music available on the Internet is compressed or squeezed, to make the files smaller and more manageable. Music streaming is convenient, yet many of the subtle – yet critical – instrumental and vocal nuances of the original recording get squeezed out in the process. When this occurs, we have lost the artist’s original intention and power of the piece. Cutting edge data-packing technologies have kept up with the Hi-Res audio. When married with high-performance audio components, you create the best of both worlds: the simplicity and convenience of streaming music along with the best listening experience around.

Now is the time to treat your ears and all your guests to the glory and gusto of hi-res music. In addition to top-quality tracks, you need the right equipment configured and set up properly—to bring it together.  Step 1 Speakers!
