dynamic range -the good and bad?
That is the nature of classical - its like that in a concert hall also. Very low followed by louder passages.

Best Louis Armstrong LP to Start With?
If you can find the 180G pressings of "Louis Under the Stars" and "I've Got the World On a String" snatch them up! The vocals sound very rich on these 2. Louis and Duke's first "The Great Summit" is also otstanding. 
Sonics on Cassandra Wilson New LP
Thanks for the info on the CD. 
Sonics on Cassandra Wilson New LP
Bad sonics meaning instruments are hard to hear and the overall band sound is lacking. Sounds like listening through a wall. I also have her album "Traveling Miles" on LP and put it on after listening to the new one and it sounded great. 
Linn Gear with Dali Speakers????
I had an all Linn system (now my 2nd system) and added MS5 speakers. Was running 3 LK85's with the Kolector preamp. The speakers needed more power so I went with a McIntosh MC402 and the the sonics are much better. Bass and soundstage improvements...

What is the model number of the integrated? 
Ringo Starr or Charlie Watts???
I saw The Who in Boston in 1973 when Moon was still wailing away. I next saw them in 2007 with Ringo's son Zach on drums, and he was excellent. In both shows Pete and Roger were great. What amazed me was how good these guys were 34 years later. Im... 
Jakob Dylan
Its a good LP. He sounds like a combination of Springsteen (Folk style), Cat Stevens, and father Bob. 
tt surface noise reduce or tolerate?
You can experience virtually no surface noise while listening to vinyl. I have many LPs that are silent. They are clean and I keep them that way. Not by cleaning over and over but by handling them and storing them correctly. This yields good resul... 
Dali Ikon 6 Bass Opinion
I run Euphonia's with a Mcintosh MC402 and also use a REL subwoofer. Had the sub from my prior system so still use it. Bass is perfect for me. Will the retailer let you bring both pairs home for a trial? That's you best bet - try them out and buy ... 
Vinyl vs. top-notch digital
If you read the Hoffman link provided above it will descibe the difference very well in the favor of vinyl. I recently had an experience while listening to Bill Evans 45 RPM Acoustic Sounds pressing of "Everybody Digs Bill Evans". We put the recen...
