We think that the audiophiles are endeavoring after a tone
quality improvement every day. Many people think that exchanging a part of audio
equipment, etc.
And sound's changing and having changed, they have obtained
satisfaction by changing the sound by these. However, many people cannot judge
with confidence for whether it changed to a good sound. And after wavering judgment,
isn't a part of the equipment exchanged again in many cases?
Moreover, when
audio equipment and accessories are exchanged and you judge that the sound of
audio system became bad, be careful.
Mentally, the exchanged audio equipment
is an aggressor and many people are convinced it is bad because of this.
However, if there is no vice (a vice is distortion.) in the exchanged equipment,
the vice of other equipment and other accessories is conspicuous, and so many
people misunderstand that they have exchanged for a bad equipment.
In order
to prevent this failure, a tone quality improvement must be done from the source
of the sound.
If a tone quality improvement is done at exit, the vice of the
equipments that is used on front will be conspicuous and the sound will be judged
as became bad.
If I say by extreme expression. I
have to say that bad software does not sound as a good sound.
When you judge it as a good sound or a bad sound, you need
the object to compare. It is very Important what is the comparative object. Many
people judge tone quality on the basis of the information read in the audio magazine
or heard from the public talk. This method is not good. Because, the comparative
object are abstract and unstable. And a gap arises between the person who heard
the expression and the person who evaluated. Please put the original sound (the
concert) into the standard for comparison. If you do so, the gap will decrease.
Please stop expression called favorite sound of a stereo equipment. A favorite
sound is in a composer, player, conductor, orchestra, a musical instrument, etc.
To say that the tone quality of audio equipment has the same tendency is idealistic.
To say that, the problem is that a record or CD software becomes off a different
tone quality by each audio equipment. In short, different tone quality is based
on the sound of the player and musical instrument that were a record. Individuality
must not be in the sound of audio equipment. A conclusion should express it as
the right sound approaching the original sound (concert) without expressing it
as a good sound or a bad sound
Then, when an original
sound is expressed by language of the person with few chances to go to a concert
as reference, it is:
- The original sound is
not powerful as we thought of.
- Even if volume becomes high,
other noises can be heard well -noisily.
- Sound does not
jump out in front. It spreads in right-and-left back, and reverberation is beautiful.
- The
separation of the musical in the orchestra cannot be heard in the way we thought
of.
- The difference in sound between a front seat and back
seat is seldom felt. Moreover, you do not get fatigued even if you are listening
to it for a prolonged period.
- We are able to hear even the
soft sound well.
--------- An original sound
is felt above.
The sound of
the stereo equipment in which there is the right sound, expressed with language,
it is.
- It is not noisy even if it enlarges volume.
And conversation is easy.
- Sound does not come
out in front, but spreads in right-and-left back, and its reverberation is beautiful.
And the normal position is not flat and it is orientated to right-and-left back.
- There is no existence of a speaker system. And even if
we listen near the speaker system and we move away and hear it again, change of
tone quality and volume is not impressive. And the sound can be heard as a good
sound.
------- A faithful reproduction of
the original sound is felt above.
The difference between
the sound of opera and a musical is the same as the difference of an original
sound and reproduction sound. Although opera sound feels small, words can be hear
well.
A musical is a loud sound that used the microphone.
However, it is hard to hear words, and tiredness is felt when you come out of
the hall. This is an oval loud sound for which the musical used amplification,
and because of this the nerves gets tired. If you have a chance to go to a concert,
please go to concert as often as possible. First, many people get the impression
of lacking punch and feel the petty the sound. Although it is shameful at now,
there was an era when I was feeling like that myself too. I regarded it as the
sound with a sound of my own stereo equipment sufficient by the highest autosuggestion.
And I am having blamed the original sound without understanding the right sound????
I thought the trap and sadness in the world of a hobby. If the language (the omission
of sound, separation, force, etc.) currently used for evaluation of sound in a
magazine is visualized and heard when you go to a concert, you will notice that
there is no sound expressed in such language, not much. By hearing an original
sound (concert), it is recognized as a peculiar oval sound and the sound that
is not understood as distortion (portion different from an original sound), and
it becomes the shortest path for understanding the right sound.
In
order to ask for the right sound, when you buy equipment and accessories, first,
you have to have doubts of all, to become calm, and try listening to good software
without autosuggestion.
For example
- The
parts currently used for this equipment are made from some parts sorted out from
100 pieces.
----- Really! your admire becomes uncanny for audio equipment
because of it.
However, if it judges on the basis of a quality control, you
can also suspect the parts sorted out from poor parts. That is, it is important
in what sorting for the purpose of what because of what.
- Many
people confident about a first-class (famous) maker's apparatus, and using it
they think the result is obvious. Then, what conditions are fulfilled? Don't you
simply regard the first-class maker article as the good one (tone quality, durability)
with it being sensuous? It is important what conditions are fulfilled and you
have to have a doubt for whether it is first-class.
- Since it
is expensive, and high quality articles, because of expensiveness it sound good
therefore.
----- we think so, so it is mental. There is equipment that is
thought as an expensive high-class by many people. There is a little production,
hand-made, with only expensive parts used (the sound is not necessarily good).
As a result, there has no added value of the product. For example, although the
ornamented makeup cover attached to the magnet portion of a speaker unit, it is
well expensive for appearance, but a makeup cover vibrates and it is not good
for sound. Moreover, although there is no value if it attaches into a speaker
box, a single article goes up goods value and it is useful to sale with it.
- Since the vacuum tube of a high reliance has reliability and good performance,
it sounds good consequently. However, what is the meaning of a high reliance?
It does not necessarily fulfill the conditions used for audio equipment. It may
be bad. By what I experienced, the several vacuum tube of Europe that have gold
plated pins, are made from quality parts and severe sorting but had large micro
phonic, and so I have not used them.
- Since the professional equipment
is superior to the equipment for public welfare, its sound is good. Then, it is
what is concretely excellent.
- ------The operating conditions of professional
equipment are interchangeability and the service nature, and the performance are
equalizing, even if it works hard. They are not required for us and sufficient
conditions said that sound is good.
Although you think that it is variously still more, it is always having a doubt.
Moreover, it is important to hear a man's talk obediently on the other hand and
to perform it from reason.
Although believing is important,
what has been believed ( does not have a doubts at all) is not good. The equipment
is for listening to music and let's do not made forget that it is not the equipment
with effect sound that enjoys.
