Re: [MBZ] Hearing test

I had to get and install extra power strips. These systems aren't mission critical so the second connection isn't required other than the noise was driving me up the wall... Curt Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Tue, Dec 24, 2019 at 11:29 PM, Max Dillon via Mercedes wrote: Power

Re: [MBZ] Hearing test

There was a recording artist a few years back (maybe a few decades now!) who was recording choral and orchestral works the "old way" in stereo -- two mics, one facing and and back angled in properly muffled auditoriums (draped to simulate people in the seats). Unlike the modern habit of

Power diversity is a good thing, what was the other guy's objection to having both power supplies online? I hope you have the second power supply on a different circuit. Max Dillon Charleston SC Dec 24, 2019 7:03:19 PM Curt Raymond via Mercedes : > I shared a machine room at work for a

Re: [MBZ] Hearing test

I shared a machine room at work for a couple years, the other guy couldn't hear the screech some of the servers make when only one power supply was plugged in but it drove me up the wall.A couple years ago he moved to a different position so its my show now and the first thing I did was work

Re: [MBZ] Hearing test

Our band director in high school never did figure out that temperature has an effect on the tune of brass instruments (all instruments really, but wood moves less). He insisted on tuning up the band in the un-airconditioned band room and then had them perform in the auditorium, with AC and

22 kHz. No one can hear 222kHz! Hearing like that has made for an interesting life. I used to shut off the mower and go in the house to answer the phone in graduate school, drove my housemate nuts (she was partially deaf and the phone had an extra loud ringer, but it was still a mechanical

Re: [MBZ] Hearing test

By total chance, I just replaced the suspension foam in my Pioneer HPM 500 speakers after a couple decades of procrastination. I bought them originally because they have essentially flat frequency response from 50 to 50k Hz -- well beyond "normal" human hearing range, but not that far from

Re: [MBZ] Hearing test

I can hear from 35 to 8K with my over-the-ear Sades headset (cheap) - which surprises me, I thought me hearing was worse than that with all the abuse it's gotten since I was kids - guns and un-muffled engines. With the Sennheiser on-the-ear headset, I can hear from 30 to 10K. On Tue, Dec 24, 2019
