sound practices christmas spirit

In tune with the festive season—including saint Nicolas and kings day—I have selected some goodies for you from the sound practices CD, with the blessing of Joe Roberts, SP editor. Also, peppering past issues of the reading club with some more shared articles was also long overdue.

Time to unwrap:

First an amplifiers article from the archives: Norman Crowhurst’s Making Use of Load Lines, as discussed here.

Followed by some big picture thinking: Herb Reichert’s Casual Reactions from sound practices issue 11: Uchida: The Japanese Homeboy, as discussed here.

Then there is a double dose of speakers articles: Steve Melkisethian’s Confessions of a Junkyard Dawg and Don Garber’s Varying Degrees of Commitment, as discussed here and here.

An inspiring line amp article: Ciro Marzio, Cristiano Jelasi and Luca Chiomenti’s Euridice Preamplifier, as discussed here.

To top it off, there is a systems triple treat: Herb Reichert’s No Stone Unturned, as discussed here.

Have fun (re-)reading these articles, see you in the new year.
