To be honest, if you have just bought a prologic amp, you should take it back.
It's yesterdays technology, they have all been supersceded by dolby digital amps, which are backwards compatible with prologic. Prologic/surround sound/dolby digital, unless it is a film or has specifically been encoded as such, is not used with music. [Edited 6/23/06 3:27am] | |

Put on any old record that hasn't been remastered and you'll find problems. These recordings were not made for modern hi-fi and have to be updated to sound close to perfect. | |

[Edited 6/23/06 3:27am] wait, what? dolby prologicII is part of the latest wave of dolby digital amps, isn't it? It is only dolby prologicII that can attempt to convert two track stereo into a 5 speaker spread, right? My art book: http://www.lulu.com/spotl...ecomicskid

ufoclub said: when doves cry has a "clicking sound"? huh? I have never heard anything irritating in that mix, and I have very expensive Sennheiser (top of the line) headphones... and a good Denon amp with NHT speakers
i know. i just had to check it on my brothers sennheiser set to see if i was missing something on my computer speakers and normal set.. turns out there is no hip hop reminiscent clicking in the song so i guess Mikek1 must have been listening to the Genuine cover and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

madhouseman said: In the studio, Prince was more worried about the groove. He rarely EVER took the time to get a mix right. He was more into the feeling, rather than the technical side. Its funny, but there were MANY times when the engineers would ask to have a little more time on the song to get it right, or a little more time on setting up the board. "You're losing the groove" would be a phrase that almost every engineer would hear at one time.
Prince knew a great deal about mixing but not enough to make it perfect. Perfection was not his goal. Yep. In one of the Prince documentaries, Sheila E said as much. She said that before she started working with him, she was a session player for jazz musicians. She said that they were very into things sounding perfect ("tight sounding" is what she said). It was a shock to work with Prince who wasn't as interested in that. He preferred to go with things as they evolved in the studio. Also, I think it's pretty much established that Prince works really fast and likes to get things as "finished" as possible so that he can go on to the next thing. So I think, of necessity, his notion of "finished" can leave others with a lot to be desired in terms of mixing and things like that. Come here, babe.. yeah... | |

You may have a bad system. Especially with Headphones, Prince sounds wonderful. I have had my say with 1999, the album. It has a scratchy sound and needs to be remastered. All you others say Hell Yea!! | |
