| Whats playing on your system today? @slaw, I too like the Andrew Gold album. Andrew was (R.I.P.) a real good musician and producer, but a rather unpleasant person (I use to run into him around Sherman Oaks when we both lived there in the 90's). He made an incredible album under the ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw, Jackson's a great, great songwriter, imo underappreciated. | |
| Who makes the best "Coaxial" Tweeter/Midrange design? Quad! The 63 and it's descendants are a coax of a sort. | |
| adcom fix For some reason the 555 was notorious for having it’s power supply capacitors going bad and leaking (I had one that did, one that didn’t---or hadn’t yet; both were the Mk.2 version). Was the same true of the 565? | |
| Why have the prices of Marantz and Sansui speakers have gone up so much? Whyyyy??? That's very interesting schubert. I have long been aware that British speakers share a voicing, one prioritizing natural vocal and instrumental timbres. Traditional Japanese instruments and music have a very different sound than does Western music... | |
| Trouble in Fleetwood Mac....... The thing about a long-lived, different-membered band like Fleetwood Mac, is that comparing different line-ups is an apple-to-oranges comparison. The original Peter Green-lead version was a pure Chicago Blues Band, while the Kiln House album is he... | |

| JL Audio e112 or HSU ULS MK2 Dan, please re-read my above post. I did NOT suggest you get a single 18" sub, I said if you're going to have a single sub, the new 18" Rythmik would be killer. I'm going to stop posting, my words are too frequently misunderstood and/or misquoted. | |
| I'm With Her "See You Around" new album @slaw, Joan was great! She had her piano player and guitarist for accompaniment---who both sang good harmony, but no rhythm section. What a voice! | |
| Some of the Worst Offenders in Bad Audio Forum Behavior Are Not Regular Forum Members viridian, while not wanting to be argumentative, I must take issue with your above assertion: "Stereophile was completely subjective and had no testing program whatsoever when John Atkinson took over as editor." Sorry, that is absolutely not true.... | |
| I'm With Her "See You Around" new album Damn Brad, I just missed 'em! I saw Joan Osborne at The Aladdin---love those kinds of theaters. I saw Jerry Douglas at Revolution Hall not too long ago. I tend to like older voices more than young ones, but there are exceptions. | |
| HD Vinyl - The Future is Here "Finally someone is trying to make better vinyl"? A LOT of people have for a long time been working on making better vinyl, and vinyl better. You've never heard of Mobile Fidelity? How about Michael Fremer and his Analog Planet site? Chad Kassem a... | |
| Tube test numbers - what exactly do they mean Is transconductance the only thing Tube Depot tests for? Head over to the RAM Labs site, and see all the data they supply with their tubes. | |
| Missing the forest for the trees Adjusting one’s priorities seems to come automatically with advancing age---each remaining moment becomes very precious, not to be squandered. So much music, so little time. |
