Examining The Art Of Recording

Just outside PS Audio headquarters in Boulder, Colorado,  lives one of the better recording studios in the area, called Coupe Studios. Between the audiophile equipment company and the recording studio lies a creek. Which seems like such a perfect analog for the knowledge barrier that exists between audiophiles and the recording world.Priorities among the two entities when it comes to design and execution are completely different, yet at a point some of the goals are the same. It's not  surprising or really very problematic for recording engineers to not know about or care about audiophile desires, and vice versa, but it's always an interesting study to examine how the other side ticks.In this episode, Darren and Duncan chat about recording and production, and wander about in the land of the pro audio folks to discover what things are important on that side of the divide.In the listener questions segment, an emailer asks for recommendations for speakers to pair with a homemade relatively low watt ultralinear amplifier, and another listener recommends a pair of finely crafted bookshelves and an album.This week's album of the week recommendation is a funk fest from the U.S. Pacific Northwest.   This podcast is powered by CommonGround Cables Whisper power cable.
