Streaming Ondatropica. What a gas! Thanks @td_dayton ! |
@big_greg, @mammothguy54 @sbank Thanks Greg but I’d have to defer to any number of the other regulars here for deeper knowledge of classical and orchestral music. I’m just an angel aspiring to one day be a six-eye. Have learned a lot, especially from Brian the last couple of years, but I really still feel like a greenhorn.

@sbank +1 for Shuggie. What a talent. I really like that record you just posted - Shuggie and Al Kooper. Do you have Freedom Flight? Probably my favorite of his. It also has a very unique sound. |
@j_husker Carryin’ around Zu Soul with that knee. I’m reporting you to the medic…! All kidding aside. Nice acquisition. Have fun with them. I don’t know much but I would think the Soul are the Zus to get. |
@bslon There was a record shop in Santa Barbara, don’t remember the name but it was near or in LaCumbre, that sold tons of $1 cutouts. We’d buy piles of them and Take the rejects to a different store, off Milpas I think, that would actually buy cutouts. Sometimes we even made money on a record. Different days indeed.

@slaw I’ll be watching for a report from you about your new isolation gear. For now my electronics are isolated by being in a different room from the speakers but I may get some small speakers for the small room where the gear resides and might benefit from more attention to isolation. |
@slaw I like the Quads. It’s sort of like listening to really good big open headphones. They do cool surround sound staging tricks. However, I must say that I was surprised that they’re neither as open or revealing as my Klipschorns. The horns also produce reality better and put more presence in the room. While the quads are really sweet, especially on the right music, I don’t ever forget I’m listening to reproduced music. I wouldn’t say the sound is unnatural. It’s like headphones. Does that make sense? Im still fooling around with the Quad’s setup and got a REL to add to it. Will let you know if I get improvements. overall I like them. They’re a good alternative to the horns. I’m lucky in that sense. It wasn’t an expensive experiment.

@slaw +1 on Green Pajamas. Cool band. I was talking bout them with my daughter just the other day. I think @waltersalas posted about them recently. |
@mammothguy54 Very nice! Hope it gives you all the pleasure and joy you’re expecting and more so. @tomic601 Did you find the problem? |
@reubent Thats a great story Tom. I love it when certain music associates to a certain time and place and that way becomes even more meaningful. |
By this set you’ve added even more depth to the sophistication and good taste already reflected on this thread I appreciate this posting. Kronos Quartet is challenging for me sometimes but in a way that I feel is good. I streamed that record and I think it’s very good. Thanks.
