It might if the power-supply contains a transformer which generates a (varying) magnetic field, and the power-supply is switched on... - Wil

I would never dream of mixing down with headphones... but... If I really had to, and there was no other way, then I would use a pair of headphones with which I was so familiar that I could anticipate all (or most of) the problems I would be likely to come across using headphones for mixing...

I have a pair which I use for ambients, overheads, and general purpose. I've also found them to be really good to mic my double-bass. The KM-184 is small enough to be suspended underneath the bridge, using rubber-bands, and the results are incredibly good. I'll post some pics when I get a...

I've never noticed a difference in the quality, although I wonder what would happen if your headphones (or anything else in the monitoring-chain) happened to be connected out-of-phase? - just a thought... - Wil

I've only come across really heavy shedding on old tapes which have been stored in less than ideal conditions. This thread might help you in your search for an answer. Good Luck! - Wil

DeaPoet - nice picture! Which orchestra? where? when? - are you in the picture? - Wil

I have a couple of the HHB Radius 40s which I like. I've found them to be quite versatile. I don't know if they would fit your needs. I think I paid about $700 each for mine. - Wil

I have a pair of GT MD-6TMs which I've used mostly for MS projects. I've used them also for female vocals, on account of their warmth and accuracy. The main advantage of using MS is that it's totally mono-compatible. Also, if you record 3 channels (middle, left, right (-left)), and mix from...

er, um - let's see... George Dubya Tony Blair (and his scheming wifey) Michael (Dangler) Jackson Trent Lott Strom Thurmond Barnyard Law The Boston Archdiocese Bill Gates (well, he gets my vote every year - so much money, so little taste...) ...oh, hang on - you said top picks - sorry, I...

What is the age/condition ot the tape you're using? I've seen the symptoms you describe, when I've tried to use tape that is very old, and hasn't been kept in ideal conditions. The binder used to glue the oxide to the tape-backing has absorbed moisture and has become soft. This can result in...

I'll second the comment on the Sony ECM-MS907. I got one for my mini-disc recorder, and was impressed by its performance, considering its size/cost and the nature of the MD as a recording medium (well, the bad rap the earlier ones had) - I use mine for recording our band's live gigs. - Wil

Most of my stuff comes from Full Compass. My pusher there is a chap called Eric, and he's at x1191. - Wil

I second the Tensimount choice. I bought a couple to try them out, and was mightily impressed by their construction and ease of use, so I got some more - including the large-mic adapters. Great product at good price! - Wil PS: They provide extra bands to use to secure the Tensimount to the...

In what sort of room will you be recording the piano? (anechoic-chamber? studio? bedroom? living-room? church-hall? cathedral? - it makes quite a difference, and is an important consideration... - Wil

Well, my double-bass is analogue, my microphones are analogue, my loudspeakers are analogue, my ears are analogue... Does that count? - Wil

I think there may some pics in some of the other URLs mentioned in other posts. Bearing in mind we're talking ONLY about the tape-path here - the basic rule is: rubber (or non-metal) - use Windex metal ( tape-guides, tape-heads c-a-r-e-f-u-l now! ) - use isopropyl-alcohol. Once again, I'm...
