LINTON is a pair of potential boxes, paired with different equipment, to explore the maximum potential of LINTON.
There is a saying in the audiophile circle called the pre-level sound output, which means that the sound quality and timbre in the amplifier system are in the front level, and the driving force and control force are in the rear level. Therefore, here we choose different front and rear stages for comparative audition (there are also pre-amplification and post-stage push function circuits in the merging machine).
At the same time, due to the different sound performance of transistors and electron tubes, there are three different ways to match here, pure transistor amplification mode, pre-stone amplification mode and pure electron tube amplification mode.
The equipment for this audition is as follows:
Set 1: British National Capital CD Player (with Pre-Stage) (Artera Play+) British National Capital Stereo Rear Stage Amplifier (Artera Stereo)
Capital QC24 bladder pre-grade
Artera Stereo stereo transistor rear stage
Set 2: British capital QC24 electron tube pre-stage, British capital stereo rear stage amplifier (Artera Stereo)
Set three: British capital CD machine (with pre-stage) (Artera Play+), British capital QII-classic tube combined power amplifier. The cable uses the audio line and horn line of the British chord.
First track: Slippin' Away II
Excerpted to -- Trumpet Flower Super Disc Multi-Hand Boy 7th
This song mainly reflects the sound field, sense of space, and sound density of different instruments restored by the sound system. Very high demands are placed on sound systems. Friends who walk in the fever industry should know that this TAS list of "James Newton Howard and Friends" (commonly known as "Multi-Hand Boy") is also a representative work of Sheffield Lab (Trumpet Flower).
Produced by Dong Sax, the first master of the audiophile world, Howard and two other keyboardists played nine modern JAZZ instrumental pieces using three yamaha DX7, DX9 and GS1 electronic synthesizers with drum kits and percussion instruments.
"Multi-Handed Boy" can also be enjoyed as a popular light music disc. The reason why this film is called "multi-hand boy" is that the electronic synthesizer breaks through the limits of simple human performance and shows a rich musical structure. Coupled with the high level of recording and production methods, even when pressing the group loudly, the reasonable separation of each part is fully expressed.
Sleeve one: The sleeve of the transistor is more decent in the performance of this type of music, and it can be scored to 80 points. What is lacking may be that there is some charm, or temperament. The control and resolution shown in this set is still relatively high, as if a mirror completely reflects the scene of the track.
Sleeve two: the combination of the anterior gallstone and the posterior stone, in addition to maintaining sufficient control, also makes the low frequency more tense. In particular, the density performance of sound is more appropriate. Compared with the first set, the sound quality and timbre performance of the second set is undoubtedly a big plus, and the overall collocation score can give 85 points.
Set three: the combination of pure guts, when expressing such music, there is no doubt that the sound field and control and resolution are lacking. But the sound of the 4 KT66s being pushed and pulled back is also unique, and the warm sound is more charming to listen to vocal strings and jazz. The overall collocation score can give 88 points.
Second track: Mr. Bones (Mr. Bunce)
The song is included in the Tigerfish album Title: Closer to the Music Vol 2 (SACD) album Chinese title: Close to Nature
Singer Steve Strauss (Stephen Strauss) Strauss)
For this song, the set three is undoubtedly the most perfect performance, steve's unique voice is perfectly expressed, but also more "toxic". Pure guts are inherently more pleasing to people's ears for the performance of human voices.
As soon as you open the sound, you can feel Steve. Strauss is definitely not an ordinary folk singer. His singing and guitar playing are full of power and the dynamics are amazing. His guitar playing skills and singing voice are absolutely superb, and he has a very good grasp of the guitar's various timbre variations.
