| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. Nelson Pass is now offering a kit version of his nice First Watt B4 active electronic x/o at an irresistible price. It provides 1st/2nd/3rd/4th-order high-pass and low-pass filers (6-12-18-24 dB/octave) in 25Hz increments from 25Hz to 3200Hz, via ... | |
| So disappointed in today's Americana Good one whart! David Lindley is a monster lap steel player, with a style employing, unlike most steel players, lots of sustain and over-driven tube distortion. He's great live, and his first two solo albums (he was in the late-60's band Kaleidosc... | |
| New in 2018 As I just posted on slaws related thread, though I haven’t heard a word about it, I sure hope Capitol Records reprises 2018’s deluxe boxset reissue of The Bands majestic 1968 masterpiece Music from Big Pink with the same for their 1969 follow-up, ... | |
| The best music in 2018 @slaw and @jafant, SO agree! I haven’t heard a word about it, but I sure hope 2019 sees Capitol Records doing the same for The Bands’ 1969 2nd album (the "brown") as they did in ’18 for their 1968 Music from Big Pink debut---a deluxe boxset reissu... | |
| How did a bands' name originate? Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham’s San Jose, California (The Doobies' hometown) garage band were originally named The Fritz Reiner Memorial Band, after the famed conductor. His estate sued, and the name was abbreviated to just Fritz. I saw them... | |
| I Would LOVE to see. Oh, and the two Dannys, Whitten and Gatton. Another couple of guitarists I will miss hearing new music from is Bill Pitcock IV of The Dwight Twilley Band and Paul Skelton (a Telecaster master) of The Cornell Hurd Band (Austin, Texas). Both were he... | |
| New Rega Planer 8 (P8) Turntable - Apheta 2 Cartridge Combo - Thoughts @fsmithjack, may I ask how many LP's you own? I ask because if you gave up on a table/arm/cartridge (twice), I'm guessing not many. Is acquiring a large LP collection an ambition of yours? An LP player and an LP collection go hand-in-hand.You will... | |
| So disappointed in today's Americana @mcondo, I don’t know your age, so am not going to assume you know about the album and the group of musicians who made it that are largely credited with being a primary source of inspiration and guidance in all things Americana; the one, the only,... | |
| I Would LOVE to see. I got beat to Hank Williams and Buddy Holly, but there are plenty of others. W.A. Mozart (lived to only 35), Eddie Cochran, Bobby Fuller, Patsy Cline, Amy Winehouse, Al Jackson Jr. (drummer in Booker T & The MG's), Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Ric... | |
| Sweethearts of the rodeo tour @rpeluso, Keith was acting so lasciviously leering towards Norah it was disgusting. He was all over her, like a drunk at a bar. Like your uncle hitting on your mom or sister, it was really creepy. And you’re right----what is that thing of his wher... | |
| Full range tower speakers with bass under $10k The bass in some of the bigger Salks is produced by the built-in Rythmik Audio Servo-Feedback Subwoofer system. | |
| Heard Maggie 3.7i with.. @secretguy, what if you end up not getting a pair of the 3.7i? Why not wait, and get an amp when you get the speakers. The dealer may make you a good package price offer. Plus, by the time you get the speakers, there may be a newly-introduced amp ... | |
| How did a bands' name originate? The Band supposedly came from the fact that everyone around Woodstock referred to them as that (they were known to be living in the Big Pink house in West Saugerties, and working with Dylan). While they were still Ronnie Hawkins’ backup band they ... | |
| Isolation for Focal Aria 936 The Townshend Audio Seismic Pods are quite a bit cheaper than their Podiums. If your speakers already have outriggers as a base, the Podiums are not necessary. |
