Azzurri, thank you for introducing Katie Melua to me.
When I and Ralph lived in your apartment in Shanghai, Ralph took out the recording of Katie Melua LIVE at O2. He played "the Nearest thing to Crazy" via your system. I was immediately drawn to this beautiful voice. Not the angelic type of female voices, not quite similar to Norah Jones; maybe more tender and yet there is power underneath. Her voice leads me to think of both the past and the future of all sorts of things.
Her voice has become my reference testing material for my system. Of all the songs by Katie, I like "That's what I miss about you" the most. The recording quality is not bad for a pop, especially the voice.
By the way, your music library shows me you have great taste. I picked up some names from your collection. But I am simply just melted down by Katie.

I certainly like "Feeling 22, acting like 17". Her Live in O2 recording is good. Her exact video on youtube elevates my appreciation of the Grimm clock and all the FMR cables, as she was simultaneously playing piano and singing on the track "That's what I miss about you". All the physical movement of her head was captured by my system.
But she is not new. She's been around for many years. I am surprised PT only know about Katie until now.
I cannot stop watching Taiwan超級偶像, i listen by a poor head phone every night in past two week, and finally my ears were over tired, i think i need to take rest at least a week....
Any good quality head phone recommand & head phone amp?
最後一提, 當其中一條ground wire冇有接上Troy, Katie的高中音的control和音色平行立即變為冇control冇音色(好似有病唱歌的感覺).

John Mayer隻Continum也不錯. 錄音好好. 不過被上海大舊哥一語說出Eufro弱點. 因為Track 4: "地心吸力" - 低音好重, 我覺得個低好似走了出來, 雖然好過引, 但不連貫. 唉, 我又冇威域八三三, 部功放可能control唔到.
John的聲音有點蒼桑感, 唱幽怨路線好夾, 加上那支懷舊電結他聲, 幾好feel. 不過佢音域不濶, 但佢編曲亦是盡量表現他蒼桑的中音至中低部分, 中高佢把聲是上到去的, 但不他喜歡用這個range表達情感, 反而我覺得他是用支結他去說完歌詞未能說盡的感覺.
聽了成晚, 最後都係要聽Katie再唱 "最接近瘋狂"才能安睡, 但最後聽了兩次, 因為第一次條Ground wire又跌了落地.
今晚我會試Master Reference Ground wire, 明天再report.
