Well, they've arrived


:-)


and my initial tests - just me talking - are
impressive.


Watch out, you'll have Plowie on yer neck....


My neighbour is having some scaffolding put up, and while
I was chatting a pole clanged against something. On playback I was
convinced while I was listening that it happened again.

Ho! Have I not had that! One of the very first recordings of Swim on the
joanna has the sound of a cup being 'carefully' put down in the kitchen
(me). The queer thing is that when it comes out on my computer speakers it
still sounds like it's coming from the kitchen!! I worked it out - the angle
of the piano recording setup to the kitchen is pretty much the same as the
comuter speakers to the kitchen, only slewed through through about 90 deg.,
IYSWIM!! So the 'relationship' is maintained! (If I can find it, I will post
it - it should soumd like it's off to the right and *behind* you!


Quite so - way outside the stereo field. But that is just mind over
matter; listening again I could hear it was really coming from the
expected spot.


I am probably recording some music over the weekend, so I'll report
back what I find.


Sound clips and pix *will* be required and the thing that jabbed me (after
Arny's tip-off) was the 'ultra-low noise' claim - any chance of a comparison
with them and your Sennheisers?



Pic here - set up for ORTF,

ORTF???.. Wasn't that some Belgian broadcaster?..

which is what I propose for this weekend.
I don't think this one will be suitable for noise comparisons, but
they will come.
