Where is Timbernation have not heard from him??
Well, I did receive something from Chris, but it is not what I ordered. I ordered and paid for a platform without legs. What arrived has legs and is not usable. I've written Chris to initiate an exchange for what I actually ordered, but I'd be ver...

BOB DYLAN DEBUT LP STEREO ???
I remember that a lot of early stereo pop LPs were like that, voice on one side and accompaniment on the other. The first couple of Beatles albums, for sure. Can't remember what else. I thought it was really cool, having grown up on Mono. I don't ...

Best power cable to component or to power strip?
Yeah, I tried removing the power strip. My system was very quiet but that was because I ran out of receptacles and couldn't plug the amp in. 
Good stores in LA
Ten years in L.A. and I haven't yet walked into an audio store that I would go back to. Your best bet is with the appointment-only guys. Elliot at Acoustic Image is great, but of course only if you're looking to hear something specific. Jay at Aud...

A look into classical
One approach would be to build on what you already have liked: Check out some Mozart symphonies, some of his string quartets, his operas. Do the same with Tchaikovski--there's a lot more to him than the two works you mentioned. You could also star...
