"Iain Churchus Congenital Mental Defective "


Sylus is a noun of the second declension (m) model dominus.
The plural is styli.


** ******** !!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a Latin word " stilus " - but " stylus " is a word in the
English language.

The usual plural of which is " styluses " .

Just like the plural of " anus " is " anuses " - things the Churchus
autistic cretin is very familiar with.

"Phil the Faggot"

Almost any modern * moving coil * cartridge operates to over 40 kHz.

What an ignorant **** you are.

** And I said I was surprised that OLD cartridges worked to
those frequencies.

If you'd actually READ what I wrote, you'd have realised that.

I know you're currently getting a ****ing ROASTING from others
in sci.elecectronics.basics (SEB), so that's why you're in such a
bad mood.

For the benefit of others: You all might wanna go have a look in SEB
to see Phil acting like a real **** and getting roasted because of
it.

Are you going to call me an autistic ****wit, now, Phil?

Phil, you do seem to use that insult a lot. It also seems to
me that you don't find it easy dealing with others at all, and
you frequently have inappropriate and disproportionate reactions
to what others say.

That makes me pretty sure that YOU are genuinely autistic, Phil.

What do you say to that question?

Eh, Phil?


Love and kisses,

English language.

The Oxford Dictionary gives: Stylus (pl: styli)
Origin: Latin - stilus.

Both words follow the second declension model
dominus. "Sti", or "sty" is the stem, to which the
nominative plural ending "i" is added for stili or styli.

One can only have a double vowel ending (ii) with
a nous such as "radius", where "radi" is the stem to which
the ending "i" is added giving "radii"


The usual plural of which is " styluses " .

The Oxford dictionary states otherwise.

Most folk use " styluses" as the plural of "stylus" ( over 2.3 million

alternatives.

The 'quad' effect was simply a gimmick anyway which is the biggest
reason of all it never gained popularity.


A reason certainly, but the biggest? As I see it there were several
reasons:-

1/ Too many competing and incompatible systems.

2/ Cost

3/ Problems in accommodating rear speakers in the typical living room

4/ Unimpressive results (especially from the market leader SQ)

David.


Indeed. Quadraphonics was no more a gimmick than stereo was to mono. It was
meant to improve the listening experience. The above reasons for failure are
pretty much spot-on, and in the right order.

compares with the LP, and don't have a multichannel AV system so can't
check.

Hmmm. Dark side of the moon.... Just take the drugs. Ye'll get more than
a few channels and some pretty colours as well ;-)

I don't recall ever hearing the record in quad but it's probably one of
the few things worth releasing in quad since that is how it was
performed live.

Serge is right though, Ambisonics is the only "proper" surround system.

Yours, not-old-enoughly-but-very-nearly,

I am. I saw it performed live before the album came out. The memory is
vivid after many years. I'll probably still remember it when I'm
dribbling down my shirt in the old folks home. Trouble is they'll
probably be playing me Frank Ifield.

The BBC's Matrix H was yet another matrix system, but one that came out
of Michael Gerzon et. al's work on ambisonics, and which was evaluated
for broadcast. The BBC did some test transmissions in Matrix H, but it
never went into full service as it didn't have full mono compatibility
(something the BBC was somewhat paranoid about at the time) and anyway,
the whole quad thing had pretty much gone away by then.

The history of Matrix H and its relation to
Ambisonics is nicely described on Wikipedia
at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrophonic

The BBC produced Matrix H. This was
combined with Ambisonic 45J to give Matrix
HJ. This was then combined with UD-4/UMX to
give Ambisonic UHJ.

There was also the RCA "FM4" system, which seems to be the one you are
thinking of. This used a frequency-modulated carrier around 20kHz to
carry the band-limited rear channels.

You're thinking of CD4, which was the system used by RCA, JVC, Denon and
others. It was developed by JVC.

The rear channels of CD-4 were
full-bandwidth, not band-limited, so David
may have been thinking of UD-4.

It's a great pity that Ambisonics never caught on,

It is still around, and is currently
stronger than it has been for many years.
Visit www.ambisonia.com for over 100 pieces
available for free download. These are in
Ambisonic B-Format, and most are full-sphere.
You will need a software player to decode
the files. There are several available, all
free.

Also, visit my website (see Sig) for the
Ambisonic Surround Sound FAQ.

The original poster was interested in
obtaining a quad version of DSotM. If they
have a DVD burner then to find something
which might interest them, they should
Google for "dsotm torrent quad".

Does anyone remember the BBC's late night experiments in 4 channel
sound in the early 70's? They used 2 stereo FM channels.

Or for that matter their late 50's stereo tests on a Saturday morning
using BBC TV sound and BBC Third Programme as the two channels. I
remember my dad moving the (very large) radiogram into the correct
position......and my mother's horror!
