| Is there a length limit for Turntable cables? I needed to set my TT some distance from my preamp, and guess I was too dumb to think to ask this question. Instead I simply used 3m IC's connected to the TT connector (an MMF5)using gold RCA f-f connectors from Parts Express. So I'm actually runn... | |
| Eva Cassidy newbee I recently bought "Imagine" and "Time After Time". I expected them to be bottom of the barrel since they were put together last, but not so. In fact I'm pulling Time After Time off the shelf more often than the others now. The songs, performances,... | |

| Any heard of Porcupine Tree? Chroma Key is another band that's similar to PT (though somewhat darker) and worth a try if you like PT. I have "You Go Now" and "Dead Air For Radios" which are both very good. Also OSI (Office of Strategic Influence) is an off-shoot of Chroma Key... | |

| Any heard of Porcupine Tree? In Absentia just doesn't do anything for me, and because of it I haven't been motivated to buy Deadwing. Before In Absentia I was buying everything they produced. My favorites are 1) Sky Moved Sideways, followed by a tie at 2) Signify and Stupid D... | |
| Textured Black Paint: How do I do it? thanks everyone. Since I'm doing this strictly DIY I'll be experimenting. I may try to replicate an "accident" that I stumbled across when I was 15 (um, a long time ago). I was building a fiberglass boat. I bought paint for it and didn't realize t... | |

| Listening habits for me it's pretty much every day for a least an hour, but usually 3-4, and sometimes more. I have a second system in my office that is on except when I am in a meeting. Volumes are medium to loud, depending on circumstance. | |
| Totem Rainmakers vs Sttaf I'm not familiar with the Rainmakers, but have owned a pair of Sttafs for 2 years now. I would recommend them to anyone. Here are some considerations: - They are incredibly musical. They image as well as any speakers I've heard, and better than mo... | |
| Progressive Rock thanks Ken, I am familiar with the Progressive Ears site, and visit it and others now and then, but your post caused me to go out and get an update. I'm familiar with many of the bands mentioned there and in this thread. My point was to note I don... | |
| Progressive Rock All these prog freaks on this site, and I've hardly seen anyone mention Camel, or Carvan (this thread or elswhere). You 70's guys . . . What am I missing? | |
