| Chi-Fi in the Time of Self-Righteous Indignation. A lot of my components were made in England. Limey-Fi? ;-) | |
| Subwoofer question @russ69: As a fellow owner (former in my case) of the RS-1b loudspeaker, let me recommend you try to hear one the Rythmik servo-feedback subs, which replaced the 1b woofer towers in my system. | |
| 3 Outputs to Bi-Amp EAR-Yoshino 868, either L (line stage only) or PL (phono and line stages), both using 7DJ8 tubes, two in the line stage, two in the phono. Four pair of outputs, two true balanced (adhering to AES48 pin designation on XLR's)---the balancing accompl... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Healing Tide by The War & Treaty. W & T is the duo of singers Michael Trotter Jr. and Tanya Trotter. The album was produced by the great Buddy Miller, Americana music’s MVP. Joining the duo on "Here Is Where The Loving Is At" are the subli... | |
| 2022 is almost here. Why are you here? For the music threads. Though an audiophile site, the music threads make wading through the rest worth it. The participants are much more hip than are the guys who hang around hi-fi shops. To paraphrase an old expression, you are what you listen t... | |
| 2022 Audio System Wish List and thoughts about streaming @slaw: Excellent Steve! Since you have a set of Pods built into your Townshend Rock 7 table you are already somewhat familiar with them. The podiums are quite an investment, so those who have been contemplating their purchase will be interested in... | |
| Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good Some of mine already listed, but not The Houston Kid by Rodney Crowell (which really needs to be issued on LP). Did I miss any of Randy Newman’s early albums, Good Old Boys in particular? IMO very, very few bands have produced perfect albums, as ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @reubent: Classic Records also issued Girlfriend (12 tracks on a single disc, mastered I believe by Bernie Grundman), as well as Matthew’s Altered Beast, Blue Sky on Mars, and 100% Fun albums. My copies aren’t for sale ;-) . I have a coupla Inter... | |

| New In 2022 Iris Dement’s debut album on LP, the Country title of the month (January) from Vinyl Me Please. I joined the subscription service just to get the LP (the album was released on CD only in 1992), adding the Irma Thomas album Down At Muscle Shoals (p... | |
| Not sure Rumor or Truth that Max Townshend has passed? If so, another of the greats now gone. Roger Modjeski (Music Reference), Tim de Paravicini (EAR-Yoshino), and now (if true) Max. Without those three I wouldn't have my system! | |
| Beautiful Music That Reduce You To Tears Great nomination @jpwarren58. I saw and heard Mary perform "Mercy Now" live a few months back. Fantastic! | |
| "Transferred from original analogue master tapes" It depends on the company which is in possession of the masters, the company which is licensing the rights to those tapes, the mastering engineer, etc. Some record companies won’t let the masters out of their storage facility, providing the reissu... | |
| Like Pronouns do we have to many music genres? I get a kick out of the very young music posters in the Vinyl Community on YouTube. They use genre names like "Shoe Gaze", "Jangle Pop", "Freak Folk", and many others. Some of them also organize their LP's by genre. Too complicated for me: I split... | |
| Why not use a piece of silver wire instead of a jumper cable? If using a jumper to connect two sets of binding posts, connect your power amp cable to the tweeter posts. That way it is the woofer which sees the extra connections and jumper cable, not the tweeter. |
