Computers can damage your ears!

[Dave]

Hello everyone,

I have played Into Paradise three times this evening... well two and a half times, actually. The first time was on my main CD/hi-fi system and it sounded simply beautiful!

The second was on one of two computers as I prepared tto make up some samples for the website. It sounded noticeably poorer in places (by comparison with the hifi system) and I simply couldn't bear it... I abandoned it in favour of computer no. 2 and now, all is well again!

The reason is simply that PC 1 uses a sound card built into the motherboard and most of these are low grade bits of electronics made as cheaply and as tiny as possible. For most music, this doesn't show up but for singers as high quality and delicate as All Angels, the sound quality sometimes really suffers.

PC 2 has a high grade Soundblaster Live sound card add-on and Into Paradise sounds much better on that (even using the same speakers). So the moral is, if your computer doesn't sound as good as your hifi system when playing AA, install a good sound card (and avoid laptops!)

Computers can damage your ears!

I think you may be wrong. Its not computers you should blame, but AA for making such beautiful music that you had to play iy again and again.

lol. I think Northern_Lights is right. But we shouldnt blame them, haha, we should thank them!

I think I have played 'Into Paradise' so often, that it is embed in my brain. I dont even need a stereo or my ipod to play it, i can already hear it in my head! lol.

I'm afraid to say (well, not really. ) that most of the songs on my ipod are being neglected as im forever playing 'Into Paradise' or the debut album. On the way to and from college, all i play is All Angels!

My friends must be sick of me talkin about All Angels and probably tired of me playin their songs, but im just trying to show them just how amazing they are. One of my friends has started to develop an interest in them! So my efforts werent in vain! lol

Hi Shauna,

It will be fantastic if you are able to get your friends interested in All Angels by playing their music a lot, unfortunatly I don't think that I will be as successful.

I don't think my friends have forgiven me yet (and not sure if they ever will!) for missing a Stoke game (the first home game I have missed in over 3 years!) to be at the Huddersfield concert.

I am always playing All Angels a lot on my MP3 player, my friends give me a lot of stick for it (for liking classical in general too), but I don't care what they think, while I have a varied taste in music, they are just close minded and I'm proud to be an All Angels fan.
