10 mins to midnight......still enjoying the same cd after a couple of hours........
soothing music is sooo comforting for the tired body and soul.....qi qin may not be blessed with heavenly vocals but he sure is good at making best use of what he has.....i always feel that he has very good technical ability in singing and i like his compositions very much.....
anyway ....in a few hours time...gotta go to office for work...........the thought of going to work is such a dread......sigh.....
last weekend, heard a couple of loudspeakers at adelphi, singapore's "almost" one-stop centre for audiophiles.....which are the paradigm reference studio 60 v4.....and the dynaudio focus 220.........one is about S$2300.....and the other close to 1k more........
so is there any difference? well of cos there are.....but it's not as simple as A vs B......
different rooms.......different partnering components............which makes auditions at showrooms quite a challenge.....based on the time we had with the loudspeakers, the dyns are in fact very strong in the areas such as ambience, imaging and bass response........the complete setup with plinuis electronics sounded ......complete ....as in one can tell sufficient effort has been put in to achieve this level of performance.....
in comparison, i feel that the paradigm was handicapped by the room.......i never felt comfortable in asia sound's 2 rooms all these years........my polks sounded so much better at home than at the shop.........however i heard enough potential in these loudspeakers to bring them home.......similarly i think the paradigm would surely blossom if give the opportunity to do so...........the highs are pretty good.....lotsa detail without being agressive and forward........
at the end of it....i am still very satisfied with the polk audio LSi-15.....haha.......a touch of bias perhaps but they are sure very good loudspeakers.......and at the price i paid of them, it's a no-brainer...
