| Favourite Guitarists So many names to find on Qobuz! Billy Strings Jorma Kaukonen SRV Don't think there is a best...just different. Enjoy the music. Regards, barts | |
| Heist/ crime songs White Wedding - Billy Idol Casey Jones - Grateful Dead | |
| Totally Ridiculous....Auditions on YouTube! +1 @ronboco Agree completely. I would say (and do believe) that DIFFERENCES can be heard, but to ascribe a value to those said differences is sheer folly. Happy New Year to whole the damn gang! Regards, barts | |
| Convincing your local dealer to let you try speakers at home @hilde45 My greatest concern with a home demo is perception. You obviously really like these speakers and I submit that they would have to sound pretty bad in your space for you to return them. As many have stated above, pick up late Saturday ... | |
| patricia barber - diana krall - holly cole +1 @hilde45 I would simply add way way over-rated and way way way overplayed. Regards, barts | |
| USB yet again +1 @uncledemp | |
| Songs of debauchery and excess Billy Idol - White Wedding This one is my all-time favorite, it just kills me: Red Peters - I Laughed...I Cried...I Fudged My Pants Nearly the entire album. Regards, barts | |
| Vinyl record cleaning @emrofsemanon They never let them get dirty...blow them off with dry nitrogen to remove any dust. Regards, barts | |
| If there was only ONE album/cd/release you can listen to, over and over............. Bach's Branden Brandenburg Concertos, in their entirety. No matter the music you pick...it will make your crazy!! Regards, barts | |
| Passive speakers for desktop Are these speakers going to straddle a computer monitor? Sounds like your desk is in a separate room? If so, will you be able to sit away from the desk to enjoy you new speakers? Hard to wrap my around $10K desktop speakers. Sorry for the rap... | |
| Anyone prefer horizontal bi-amping their monos? The best part of my tri-amped (outboard electronic x-over) is that the bass can do what it wants and the mids and highs have no clue. Stay in the same amp family and it will work out. Regards, barts | |
| Stereophile Scamming Subscribers? @clearthinker I understood your point and I do like it from time to time, it just gets to repetitive for me. So, I take a break from it. The PS Audio DAC comment was totally tongue-in-cheek. I'll bet it will be good, maybe very good. Seems ... | |
| Stereophile Scamming Subscribers? By the time my subscription runs out I'm freakin' sick of reading it anyway, same old blather. Can't wait to read the review (on-line) of the new PS Audio DAC as they just did a two page spread, pretty picture! So I let it run out and take a bre... | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? I think the most amazing point is that LPs and CDs can sound amazingly close given the wildly different paths the signal must take! Regards, barts | |
| What am I missing? I still like CDs and have ~1k. But the funnest thing about them is looking at the titles and picking one I had forgotten about and the memories, good or bad, of that time. Nostalgia! Regards, barts |
