Love hearing from Sandy. Big fan.

Two sexiest men in audio. Well, second and third most. 😂

Why do you guys not have 100K subs?! The information you share is priceless. At least people hear about your podcast on Soundstage! Network. I love listening to the two of you, and it’s nice to see you both onscreen. Thank you, Dennis and Brent.

Regarding Dr. Olive's question, it seems like Dr. Toole partially answered it. The next logical home audio configuration would probably be a wireless 9.1.6 soundbar system with the addition of satellite far right front and far left fronts. It would address the narrow soundstage inherent to the soundbar while keeping the HDMI/amplication /driver mounting points; eliminate the need for side-firing and Atmos drivers on the sound bar; and allow the allocation of DSP chips to those satellites instead. And in one fell swoop, it would silence those clamoring for a Sony Bravia Quad-type setup with a dedicated center channel. I heard Samsung and Harman might have those kind of resources to make it happen, maybe all they need is an insider to point to a market niche that can be filled for relatively low R&D. ;)

This Audio Unleashed Patreon group seems like the equivalent of The Velvet Underground and Nico; you're making everyone do the equivalent of forming their own band. :)

Gents, how about a KZbin talking about the KZbinrs who don't know what they're talking about?😲

Dennis suggesting that Marantz and Pioneer do retro style amps with todays insides is exactly what people want. Those vintage receivers, especially if restored, go for mega bucks. That said they have to be “real retro”. No cheesy touch screen replacement for the silver knobs. I think Yamaha and Luxman do a good job with that.

Great to see both of you on video and your usual hinged selves. Paul Hales has very interesting views of eq and Atmos setups. He would be a great guest. Dr. Toole would be adequate. 😊

I AM a complicated dude.

Completely agree with aptx hd making a big difference compared to sbc!

New episode!! Let’s gooo!!!

You guys are great and thank you for an awesome ep. Also just wanted to mention a shorts clip from the veritasium yt channel called ”what do you hear?” that kills any notion of value in sighted listening tests. The clip is the one with ”bear/fair”.

Nice format. Love the longform audio conversation. Refreshing.

I'm forever going to equate audio components as steampunk sculptures. Because he's not wrong. :)

This is the best flippin podcast full stop

Enjoyed this one guys. Well done.

Good stuff fellas

The best audio podcast on the planet.

Great podcast, you guys make my Thursday commute more enjoyable. My hot take for this one: ummm what was going thru your mind when Sandy said his audioquest cables and power and binding posts make a difference?

Best podcast ever

That lead in is horrid, dreadful..

That podcast is so incredibly well done. Even if we pay no attention to the tonality of the voices or the inflection or the speech patterns (a very NPR-like presentation), the writing of the "script" is top notch. I would have believed it to be human produced and presented. Maybe I'm gullible. We should find this either very worrying and fear a future in which humanity becomes a useless organic component of a bleak and sterile world or we should be hopeful of what positive developments AI might bring to our existence and to our understanding of the universe we inhabit. I am not sure what I am feeling right now. Maybe AI can help me figure it out...

Nice! New show! 🔊😊🎶💜 I really enjoy listening to you guys shoot the sh*t about audio or whatever. Plus, you guys are f’n funny! 😂 Thanks, Dennis and Brent. Appreciate you both very much.

The first time I saw KZbin’s AI generated content warning label was on a K-pop music video (“Suncream” by Suvi). I thought nothing of it beyond questioning their enthusiasm for computer generated underwater scenes. It was much later when I discovered that the singer/dancer was AI generated, and the music video was filled with flexes designed to show that the uncanny valley has been solved through Moore’s Law.

Hey guys. Good episode. Appreciate your content even if I may not agree with everything. Makes me think which I’m ok with. Keep up the good work.

Remaster it in fake stereo!

Pretty amazing.

That is pretty amazing and believable. As others have said, a bit bland and not to my taste, but very well done.

Hey guys, I’m a recent supporter of your podcast. On the surface both AI hosts seems to be scarily good, but to my ear just a little too perfect ...I’m not a fan of that “fake” inhale breathing. I can see this tool being used and abused to flood the market with all kind of things, which will just drive disengagement in the long run. Take care, Brian

Wow that podcast sounds so real. Bit bland but very believable. Insert some more humour and that's it...

It's a tough audiophile equipment entertainment market. I can't imagine that fantasy people having discussions about real facts will ever displace real people having discussions about fantasy. :)

On video ✌🏼

“Bugger-Burger” priceless!!! 😂

My absolute favorite podcast at the moment. Found you guys a couple of episodes back and I have now gone thru the entire backlog on Spotify.

Nice! A new episode. Thanks, Brent and Dennis. Always appreciate hearing your take on things and enjoy your conversations. Lots of experience between you two crazy audio nerds. 🔊😊🎶💜

Enjoying the content guys. Appreciate it.

I may be a year late to this particular party, but I love these podcasts. I’m slowly making it through all of em. Thank you guys for doing them. It’s very much appreciated by audio nerds and musicians such as myself. Love your senses of humor, and I’m laughing along with you. Thanks again, guys. 🔊😊🎶💜

Re: Spotify. I use Spotify after having previously used Apple Music and Amazon Music. I primarily listen to albums, and I'm completely befuddled by the author Kyle Chayka's purported difficulties with the app. "When I tried to pull up Bill Evans Trio albums, for example, I could find only playlists." Hmm, type "Bill Evans Trio" in the search bar, then click "Albums" immediately below the search bar. Boom. "I saved Charli XCX’s 'BRAT' to my library to listen to in full, but then I couldn’t track it down again." Hmm, I just did that, and it shows right up in my library, the top entry below my pinned stuff. The library can be sorted alphabetically, or it can filter to only show playlists. Which is a good thing, more power to the user. Perhaps the author accidentally clicked the playlists filter? "When I wanted to view my library as a whole, I couldn’t manage to make it escape the sidebar." Kind of true, but you can drag the sidebar width to take up 80% of the window. What's the problem here? Chayka wants to get to the think-piece part where he can bemoan how Spotify is trying to further commodify music and alienate artists from their labor. But all that chin stroking falls apart if the album tracks are not, in fact, difficult to find. I'm not a fan of Spotify and would not use it if my kids didn't prefer it. They pay out the least to artists. I'm a fan of Atmos content so I'm disappointed that Spotify doesn't support it. I can't believe it's as buggy as it is, considering how long it's been around (though it beats Amazon's, which suffered occasional cutouts). It's supposed to have the best recommendation algorithm of the major players, but I found more interesting and quirky music through Amazon. Still, this article is straight slander.

Hi where can listen to your music streaming?
