Got my Black Discs

Posted by Awe-d-o-file (D) on November 6, 2013 at 15:02:44

They arrived and I followed protocol. First put them on my lap in an Altoids container. I then took them out of the container and set them one on each of my thighs near my knee.Not much change if any.

I then put one on my SB III power supply cable and the other on my digital out cable. Things changed then. This was like many tweaks in its result: more detail, pans were easier to track as they went across the soundscape from side to side. More subtle detail.

In particular I always use Zap Mamas A Ma Zone as a reference. This often has five or more specifically located vocal parts along with the music on each track. It is very well recorded and it is a really good and unique album you all should hear. I was hearing a few things I never heard before in thousands of listens and hearing those subtle parts I've heard before more easily. A real joy.

Now I must say this difference is not earth shaking, but I would pay for it. I'm also guessing that perhaps about half of the people that tried these might not hear much if anything. Of course I'm just using the two small free samples. Who knows with more large ones!
