    Default Hello AOS world

    My Name is Olivier
    I live in Aix-en-Provence area, France
    I'm an engineer i a semiconductor company.
    I'm found of sound reproduction since I'm a youth and still in Quest of Audio Grail after 40+ years after my Revelation, listening to a system made of Oracle Delphi turntable, Spectral pream, Krell KSA50 feeding Onken-like loudspeaker made according to French review "l'Audiophile" (Altec 416+Audax PR17TSM + Fostex T925).
    I own multiple gears and parts. I'm currently working on loudspeaker design.

    Cheers

    Default Favorite music

    Hi Adrian
    Difficult to say what is my favorite music. It depends highly on my mood. I can listen to rock, pop, ethnic, classical, blues... I'm quite open. Even if there is to say about sound quality, I even like Spotify playlists or proposals based on my previous choices. It makes me discover some talents I was not aware of. I'm really angry with the corner's record shop that recently suppressed the listening points with headphones. I think I didn't purchase any CD since they did that, though I really liked this format.
    What I almost never do is listening music whilst doing something else, except driving and gym. I'm so receptive to music I can't concentrate on anything else at the same time.
    Not sure I really answered your question, but this is where it drove my thoughts...

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
