| Oh man, I broke my class D amp. Make fun of me. Then help. The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band are who is playing in the subterranean room in The Beatles Magical Mystery Tour movie. They made a bunch of incredible albums, containing songs such as "Jazz (Delicious Hot, Disgusting Cold)" and "Can Blue Men Sing The W... | |
| If bi-amping is so great, why do some high end speakers not support it? There are sonic benefits to be gained by getting rid of the speaker-level crossover in a loudspeaker, instead filtering the signal before the power amps, the amps then powering the drivers directly. That requires the speaker be designed to be used... | |
| Tape-in and Tape-out ports Me too Don, for my Stax headphone amp. The old tube version of the amp had a pair of output jacks, for returning the signal to the pre. | |
| Isoacoustics Gaia Speaker Footers Thanks zman. Of course, if one buys three sets of four, he will have four sets of three! Perfect for a set of main speakers and dual subs. | |
| Where is you money at latest reissues Audiophile pressings or higher end audio equipment. Moe, the answer to your last question/sentence is the music always comes first. I would MUCH rather have a great music library and a mediocre system to play it on than the opposite. But that's just me. Most hi-fi nuts are also crazy about music, a... | |
| Tape-in and Tape-out ports kalali---For one thing, the tape out jacks are fixed in level, not variable like the mains, so they can’t be used to feed a power amp (unless your amp has level pots). Also, they are taken from before the final stage of amplification in a pre, and... | |
| Who is the WORST Audio Shop? steven-cal, Brooks Berdan Ltd. in Monrovia (just east of Pasadena) is a Magico dealer. I'm sure they would be happy to demo the speakers for you.I assume the Orange county dealer you are referring to is Absolute Audio. | |
| Sgt.Pepper special on PBS Fantastic! The best sections are where the host sits at a piano, explaining the technical construction of the songs. There is a video on You Tube of a musical theorist sitting at a piano, explaining and demonstrating the construction of Brian Wils... | |
| Jelco SA-750D or Rega RB250 Audiomods Classic II. The British designer/builder uses the best Rega arm tube (only), machining all the other parts himself. | |
| What Audio Research preamp would be an upgrade to my LS2B hollytone22---Wait a year and buy the LS28 Mk.2 ;-). It will no doubt "make the LS28 sound broken". Or get an Atma-Sphere Mp3 or Ear-Yoshino 868. Both are available as line stage only or as line & phono stage, so you can ditch the PH3, a dated... | |
| Ear plugs for live musc. If you go to a hearing aid place, you can have soft rubber molds made of your inner ears. Etymotic makes little SPL discs attenuation discs (5-10-15-20 dB) that you then insert into the outer end of the molds. The discs attenuate all frequencies e... | |
| Greatest rhythm sections Absolutely flron! I'd love to hear them back Chuck Berry in his prime. | |
| Did you know....? Chris, there’s a new book out by Ed Ward, entitled The History of Rock & Roll (Volume One 1920-1963). There is a fair amount of information new to me about The Beatles very early days, and the pre-Elvis roots of R & R. Well worth anyone’s ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I Want To Live is a GREAT movie! A Top 10 Noir for sure. | |
| I would like to get into Turntables but ......... HELP! If you provide your location, you can get recommendations for a turntable dealer in your area. You should definitely buy from a hi-fi dealer who is competent at cartridge installation and alignment, and turntable/tonearm set-up and adjustment. If ... |
