Description

If you’ve ever heard an album or a specific group of albums in your library sound amazing on your system, hang on to that memory. Once you make a change to your setup, you may notice an entirely different set of sounds and records coming to the forefront of recording and playback quality in your listening room.Systems grow, they change, and they settle in. It’s entirely possible that not every piece of music will be played back perfectly at all times, and that’s okay. In this episode of The Hifi Podcast, Darren and Duncan talk about identifying and understanding what genres work best for your system, and discuss the idea of letting that music evolve as your system and tastes evolve.The guys also get back to some great listener questions including DIY advice on single full range driver speakers, and the best bang for the buck with interconnect cables. Darren also shares his $50 DIY interconnect plans (check that out by clicking here - https://www.psaudio.com/article/how-to-make-a-50-high-end-xlr-interconnect/) for those interested in making their own.This week’s album recommendation is a doozie, with some very interesting recording methods and instruments in the mix. The guys do their best to pronounce the name of this one, and a listener with a connection to Croatia helps correct the pronunciation of last episode’s album of the week.
