| New In 2025 Already out: J.D. Crowe And The New South, the legendary Bluegrass Supergroup who made only one album. The band’s members were J.D. Crowe, Ricky Skaggs, Jerry Douglas, and Tony Rice. Wow! Copies of the original 1973 pressing on Rounder Records... | |
| Too good to be buried in a thread. @johnto: I initially thought you meant to say The Secret Sisters, who albums I have (I was attracted by T Bone Burnett producing their first two). Then I googled Simple Sisters and learned it wasn't a mistake! I'll give 'em a listen, thanks. | |
| Eminent Technology LFT 7 !! The 8c isn't for me either @daytrader; no digital, thank you very much! But there's a better alternative anyway: a pair of the OB/Dipole Servo-Feedback woofer system that Rythmik Audio and GR Research developed and market together. While the n... | |
| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? For about a week I’ve been down with a serious bout of a rare form of migraine headache known as a "cluster" headache (I started getting them forty years ago).

Dear readers, fellow audiophiles and music lovers, I invite you to compare the tone, attitude, and most of all information offered in the above post by devinplombier to that of Danny Ric... | |
| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? @chuck: Your question of "does Danny measure these speakers in an anechoic chamber?" suggests that you have not actually watched many of his videos. If you had, you would know the answer to that question. You make an argument against Danny by ... | |
| Too good to be buried in a thread. @wyoboy: My pleasure! Though I am the oldest sibling, my two younger sisters are slowing becoming---how shall I put it? Mentally challenged. Music is my escape from the grim reality of our brief lifespans in these bodies we inhabit. Watching in... | |
| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? For those who are truly interested, here is Danny Richie’s response to Andrew Robinson’s video regarding crossovers. The clips from Robinson’s related videos simply reveal that he (and his off-camera wife/girlfriend) is not a serious audiophile... | |
| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? The link @ned1000 posted above is the second video of a 2-part series Danny Richie made on the pair of Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy Series 8 loudspeakers a customer sent him. Here’s part 1: https://youtu.be/Tma9jFZ3-3k?si=nJTc2qlLVhmK3WVR A... | |
| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? A good number of hardcore Maggie owners tear into the crossovers that Magnepan installs in their speakers, especially the guys who frequent the Planar Speaker Asylum. One easy mod is to replace the stock binding posts with ones from Cardas; th... | |

| Subjective vs. objective? Or subjective and objective? And here's part 2, in which digital, cables, bottle-necking, and value for money are discussed: https://youtu.be/uNNl5lSJezY?si=iCeCWC5RTtvwx3ke | |
| For the fans of Americana music who don't frequent YouTube..... @pdreher: In addition to the solo instrumental CD Larry talks about in the video, he and his wife/musical partner Teresa Williams have two mighty fine albums on Red House Records. |
