"God Bless the Child" on Idol?
More talent and diversity than any other seaason. Consider the voters and it's totally understandable why the last 2 standing are Lauren and Scotty. I'm not the biggest country fan and I'm turned off by Scotty's at times kitchy style, but his voic... 
Most achingly-beautiful music
Netflix it is. Thanks for the inticing description Larry.

All time favorite speaker cables
So far, ASI Livelines. They may be my last.

Songs that you love and know like the back of your hand. 
Idol 2011
Foster_9 you're right, Pia's gone because young girls' votes are based on (silly) crushes. That's not to say that boys wouldn't vote in the same way. 
"God Bless the Child" on Idol?

Best CD I've heard so far 2011.........
I'd like to give a big hand to "Blame Sally" a female quartet from San Francisco and "Girlyman" out of Atlanta. Based on many of the posts, I think you'll like them. 
"God Bless the Child" on Idol?

Idol 2011
I was really shocked that she was voted off and I think that it was all wrong. No accounting for taste. 
Where will my powercables be used best ?
Move them around but I'd bet that your 'best' cord will offer the most all around improvement when placed on the regenerator. 
Disappointing Evening
Maybe if you had insisted that your friends just sit down and take a listen to your main rig things would have turned out differently. Maybe not. Occasionally you get the 'right' reaction. An old friend of mine is visiting for a few months and she... 
IC's and Speaker cables
ASI livelines (used). You'll have to jump the spkr cables.These are such good cables.Good luck. 
Help with DAC Going nuts
Well, I've decided on the db Audio labs Tranquility. Eric of db Audio has been very generous with his time and never pressured me to buy his unit when I wrote to him. He actually suggested that I go with something under $500.00 when I told him tha...
