Your 5 Fav Rock Concerts Oops! I just now read the entire original posting, and I should not have included Iris---she is no rocker! In her place I guess The Who at The Carousel Ballroom (San Francisco) in 1968 ("A Quick One") and '69 ("Tommy").Those shows which I liked at... | |
Your 5 Fav Rock Concerts I couldn't possibly narrow it down to five. How about ten?- The Band, Berkeley (CA) Community Center 1969- Rockpile & Moon Martin, The Country Club (Reseda, CA) 1980- Dave Edmunds, NYC 1982- Marshall Crenshaw (5-piece), NYC 1982- Phil Seymour,... | |
$510.00 for an Aluminum cover for the ARC Ref. 10? Just so you'll know, Roger Modjeski is not one of those guys who finds fault with everyone else's designs. He thinks highly of Mike Sanders (Quicksilver), Tim DeParavicini (EAR), and Ralph Karsten (Atma-Sphere), amongst other current designers.Bro... | |
Artists that use the same song structure... Another 100 % agreement, this time with Marty. I imagine all Baroque also sounds quite similar to those who have yet to hear past the outside surface. Form is only one aspect of music, but yes, the first one heard and recognized. Inside the form a... | |
Why does most new music suck? Even some of the "better" New Wave music sounds dated and disposable to me now. Stuff that I don't mind hearing, but don't feel a need to own, and wouldn't put on the player myself. Stuff like Squeeze, The Pretenders, Blondie (never liked them, bu... | |
Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Uh oh, Bob. The real WE 16g wire is sold only by a certain former WE employee (now retired), from NOS. | |
$510.00 for an Aluminum cover for the ARC Ref. 10? Hey, I didn't say it about D'Agostino's amp, Roger did! But as Roger pointed out, so did John Atkinson, in his comments on the results of his bench tests of the amp. Between the lines of course, as Roger also pointed out. For anyone wanting to rea... | |
A new player in the quality Mono cartridge game "$1000 Quicksilver". Right Lewm, and an ARC LS-1 (the last ARC line stage to include a Mode switch, I believe) can be had for even less. I send mine the signal from the tape out jacks on my main pre, and send the LS-1's output (main, not tape, as ... | |
What's your favorite lyric from a song? Wow, I wasn't aware that certain people are claiming the "liberal media" is disseminating a "lie", that the U.S. debt is due in large part to the unpaid for Iraq war, amongst other causes (including the "Corporate Welfare" handed out by the last P... | |
What's your favorite lyric from a song? Oh no, I didn't intend to insinuate that skin color had anything to do with it (whether or not it does is an entirely different matter). But the President blamed for many things not actually of his making (the "Socialist domestic policy" in this c... | |
Need a subwoofer reccomendation..... j---As you are in Dallas, you may be willing to take a trip to Austin to visit the headquarters of Rythmik Audio, maker of a line of unusually good subwoofers. Rythmik's owner/designer Brian Ding is not an ordinary Hi-Fi guy, having a PhD in Elect... | |
What's your favorite lyric from a song? If I remember correctly, is was an unpaid for war in Iraq that had something to do with the debt, amongst many other factors creating the situation facing whoever took over in '09. Of course, it's easier to, as Larry David put in one of his Curb Y... | |
Granny ring, Jetrexpro, all Bob, I think the 16g wire is gone, all sold. | |
Why does most new music suck? Wanna hear some empty, cold music? Listen to any of the early-mid 80's "New Wave" albums still in your collection! A lot of that stuff is no better than new stuff imo. I just went through my LP's and took a load of them from that era to Amoeba. I ... |
