Don’t Understand Digital Audio? Xiph Can Help!
This video contains the most lucid instruction on digital audio theory that I have seen.
The exposition should benefit non-technical folks as much or more than techies, but beginners may want to start here.
Enjoy,

iPhone in a Guitar (How cool is this?)
Thanks, Skeptica!
DSD Audio – The Next WAV?
The video below will help prepare you for what might be the next wave in high-end digital. It will also serve as a great intro for our next session at Blue Coast Records.
(There’s a lot of good info to be had from the various RMAF videos.)
Enjoy,

Cool “Live vs Recorded” Video and Free Downloads
Check out this thread on What’s Best’s audio forum. You’ll find the video by MA Recordings and the Pac NW Audio Society – featuring our own John Stone!
You’ll also discover a bunch of free high-resolution downloads, some in DSD. Todd G, like Cookie M, is sold on DSD.
The WB forum is one of the best IMO. Several BAAS members participate….

Life at 33 RPM – A Vinyl Story
“Vinylmania” is coming to San Fran – details here.
Also, you may want to check out this charity record sale on Nov 10th (same day as the movie), proceeds to Palo Alto Library.
Enjoy,

Rock Star Champions High-resolution Digital
Can rock legend Neil Young accelerate adoption of high-resolution digital (“the sound of analog”)?
Let’s hope that Mr. Young (and his Pono player and service) follows Mr. Chesky (HDtracks) in widening the options for music lovers.

[Thanks, Aaron!]
Japanese Synchronicity
You’ll “get it” by halfway mark…feel free to skip ahead if you must!
Leave a comment if you can explain….

Hint: Think Newton’s 3rd Law, and how it may play here.
GoTye Video & “Hear.app”
Very cool music vid IMO.
Mac users: Download a free trial of “Hear” from Joesoft, and watch/listen with that. Amazing on my iMac.

AVshowrooms.com – Hires video reviews, factory tours, and show reports
For those of you looking for additional Memorial Day entertainment, check out the AVshowrooms web site.
Lots of high definition audiophile video. I found the Audio Note UK tour particularly enjoyable. Old world, minimalist design ethos. The YG Acoustics tour was a nice bookend – new world, high-tech approach and materials.
I like the overall concept. It strikes me as a useful adjunct to the written word, and valid means of getting greater exposure to the brands. I would think that quality manufacturers would value the service as well.
Sample below. Go “full screen” for best effect.
Enjoy,
Bob
The Beatles, Scotty Pippin, and Mr. Smith
