| Trojan VIRUS Reported - Beware One of the first tip-offs. If you ever get an e-mail with the title "message from a friend" - it ain't! | |
| What is a Choke? The Boston Red Sox...1986 World Series!Bwwwaaahahahaha | |
| Where do I find replacement CD jewel cases? There are probably TOO many sources. Given their general quality, I always thought "jewel case" was an oxymoron. | |
| Cocktail of choice when listening to fav music? My favorite is still the gin martini and here's a way to mix a good one that eliminates the mess and "watering down" effect of using ice. Keep a bottle of your fave gin in the freezer (Beefeater or Bombay Sapphire recommended) and a bottle of dry ... | |
| How much does your system retail for? YIKES! I did a rough total of the values stated in this thread using actual amount spent, where provided, retail cost, where provided, and doing some interpolation, where necessary. I came up with about $4,625,000. This also assumes, based on a no... | |
| Help Amp Repair: California I'll third the Nick Gowan recommendation. Great guy! | |
| What do you think Audiogon does right? or wrong? One thing I particularly appreciate is the "bump" feature where, when there is activity in a thread, it stays toward the "top". On some other boards, posts "sink" to the bottom and "off the page" even if there are a ton-o-responses. | |
| I don't understand Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue" I, too, find myself wishing Scott would weigh in on this issue of blue. | |
| What is the worst colour of speaker finish to you? I always figured SOME people prefer black for reasons of their own taste. I alwyas though tit a shame to cover GOOD wood with black. Kinda like painting over otherwise good oak flooring. Sometimes I think it is license to use cheaper and/or inferi... | |
| Here, there a Chick, Where else a Chick Corea ? Thanks for the suggestions. Scott can ALWAYS be counted on for good choices and I will explore those of others, too.Speaking of Gary Burton, I found his album "Throb" at a garage sale and it, too, is excellent. I understand it is hard to find, tho... | |
| What is the worst colour of speaker finish to you? I recall some home-made speakers boxes a friend did in college that used very "large particle" particle board. Enough to make one hurl. Especially after his cat rubbed up againt the unfinished edges with the resulting tufts of fur sticking out all... | |
| Here, there a Chick, Where else a Chick Corea ? I decided to drop in to the local Rasputins on the way to a meeting and, viola, TWO used copies of Mad Hatter, both of which I snapped up. Look forward to a cleaning (well I won't look forward to that), then a good session of listening this evenin... | |
| What's your favorite speaker finish? I share with other's views that a choice is dependent upon the woodwork in the room and other furniture that the speakers will share space with. I am not partial to black lacquer, myself. Too shiny for my taste, they show dust and finger prints to... | |
| Cleaning vinyl - am I using this thing right??? I may have inadvertently caused confusion regarding the Groovemaster (Groovmaster). I posted earlier in this thread that I used a Groovemaster because that is what the guy I bought it from called it at the time. It is two pieces of wood with rubbe... | |
| Speaker break in? Oh, you sounded like you were speaking with the voice of experience there, Bufus. Actually, my post was left in jest. I could never do such to even the surliest of audio salesmen. |
