| FMJ CD 23 vs Rega Jupiter For what it's worth,the Arcam FMJ CD 23 has been revamped with a new transport and new electrics,according to What Hi-fi,it sounds better.It's now called the FMJ CD 23T.Ben | |

| Which tubes is better. Siemens or Telefunken? JMAN that is the very one thanks...Ben | |
| Japanese remastered CDs - Steely Dan in particular The whole Steely Dan catalogue was remastered by MCA the last couple of years,I would suspect that is what the Japenese versions are.These were released in typical CD format but had extensive hilarious sleeve notes by messers Fagen and BeckerThese... | |
| Which tubes is better. Siemens or Telefunken? Brian,I have the same unit replaced the philips with some 60's Amperex,gold pins-sound superb-warmer overall and rounder bass-I also have a pair of Raytheon 7308's which are better than the Philips but not as good as the Amperex.Kevin tends only t... | |
| Nick Drake: incredible sonics Nick Drake's music is pretty much is the folk tradition.Way To Blue is a good place to start for those unfamilar with his music.He died in 1974 aged only 26 after years of battling with depression.I discovered his music about 6 years ago and I now... | |
| New format players the future? Sugarbie,Just for clarification, I've probably read most of these threads,I thought these questions where of a slightly different slant as I'm curious about how the new players will progress and if a univeral machine is a reality.I know nobody can... | |
| Pink Floyd's "Echoes" I think this compilation works far better than you'd expect considering the track sequence throws very different era's of Floyd together rather than the safe method of earliest recordings first .It sounds great too(probably the best versions yet) ... | |
| Chord Dac I haven't heard this DAC but it does look interesting and got a great review in Hi-Fi+'s last edition.Here's a link to their web site which contains the details on this so called new technology.I'd be interested to hear what some of the more techn... | |
| Pink Floyd's "Echoes" It's a strange release this one in terms of the track listing,covering all 3 phase's of Floyd from Barrett to post-Waters,since I'm not much of a fan past '81 I was going to give it a miss however the remastering(yet again!) angle will probably dr... | |
| How BIG is yours? I raised a similar post a while back,there's a wide range of people who take up the audio hobby.It seems to me by nature very many have pretty conservative tastes,classic rock,some folk,some country,some jazz,some classical.I have collected somewh... | |
| Mountain I think it's a Steve Earl album-I have no idea what it's avaiable on,it's only a few years old.Or else it's the old band Mountain who were excessively excessive-Nantucket Sleigh Ride was their big track...lasted three days if I remember right.. | |
| music for a broken heart Well Gregg,maybe you should listen to something more upbeat but......Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan is an obvious one.As is In The Wee Small Hours by Frank Sinatra.A more obscure artist but really one of the best at writing broken hearted and do... | |
| The best new music is by a guy who is 60. Love and Theft is indeed a brilliant album however I can't agree that we've had to wait twenty-five years for a great Dylan album check out Infidels,Oh Mercy and even his previous album Time Out Of Mind.Ben |
