| Best Genesis Album - your opinions please. Cuke's right - Seconds Out is great album - it has something for both factions. It's a live set from concerts shortly after Gabriel left the band. It includes a monster liver version of Supper's Ready and other great PG erra songs - with Phil Coll... | |
| Looking for opinions of the B&K ST 125.2 I've had excellent experience with B&K products and their customer service. I own several pieces I'm using in various rooms. A vintage ST140 amp and CS117 pre, 2 AVP3090 processor preamps, and a AV5125 5 channel power amp. I bought one of the ... | |
| Best Genesis Album - your opinions please. My top 3 would be Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, Foxtrot, Selling England by the Pound. Though Tresspass and Nursery Cryme are also hard to beat. I'm less fond of the post-Gabriel recordings, but it's still among my favorite bands. I would pick Wind ... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE I bought a pair of Infinity Monitor IIa's when in college in 1975. I didn't find a burning need to "upgrade" until the foam surrounds in the woofers disintegrated in 2003. I then bought a pair of Totem Sttaf's. The Totems are fantastic, but I foun... | |
| Personal speaker evolution Wharfedale W45's were my first (guess about $100 in 1972) - still have them but gutted the cabinets and rebuilt with with new Audax drivers/crossoverInfinity Monitor IIa's ($500 or so in 1975) - I still have them - they are all original and immac... | |
| How to replace the speaker grill cloth??? I've done a several grill cloth replacements - tried hot glue on one - not a good result; staple gun on one - easy but I didn't like the staples. The last few I used brush on contact cement - it's messy but worked well. It holds well and I was abl... | |

| Best progressive acts these days? Great - They're at the Birchmere in Alexandria July 8. I'll make it for sure. I saw Camel there this last summer. thanks for the update. | |
| amp selection for multi ch AND bi-amp capablity Malanl - I'm very interested in your comment on the Philips 6 channel amp - I bought a Pilips Model AV1002 off eBay. It looks as though it's the one described in your thread on 1/17/04. I didn't receive any manuals, spec's or anything like that. I... | |
| Best progressive acts these days? thanks for the update on the Strawbs - I'll be looking for them live - hopefully they'll make it to D.C.. I'll also look for the latest cd release. | |
| Best progressive acts these days? thanks - I just haven't seen any new recordings from the Strawbs, and what I've read about Caravan - they just aren't the same band - I have Battle of Hastings (1995) and though it's good, it's not in the same class as the 70's stuff. With Camel, ... | |
| Concert for George Absolutely - this is a fantastic concert and an excellent production on DVD. It's a must - what an amazing line-up - and by the way, Harrison's songs!!! | |
| Blues /rock: music recommendations? Boz Scaggs' first album - with Duane Allman - has a 13 minute jam track "Loan Me a Dime" with an extended guitar duel with Duane on lead. This album is one of my all time favorites. | |
| Best progressive acts these days? The best still playing? Camel is still the best - saw them live this year, and "A Nod and a Wink" is excellent; King Crimson - their new release "Power to Believe" is the best in a while, Porcupine Tree - except I'm not that wild about "In Absenti... |
