Favorite scream in rock? "Stand Up And Shout", Steel Dragon from the film Rock Star - Miljenko Matijevic supplied most all of the vocals. Big voice for sure. | |
What preamp with both line stage and phono? If I were looking to upgrade, I'd strongly consider a preowned Conrad-Johnson ACT2. In my opinion, and just my opinion, one of the finest preamps available at any price. https://www.stereophile.com/tubepreamps/305cj/index.html https://www.stereot... | |

Will an Amp change improve my system ? Big Star, Live at Lafayette's Music Room Joe Bonamassa, Live at The Greek Curtis Mayfield, Live!0 | |
DAC for Aurender N200 Seems like this topic pops up every few weeks so I'll toss my Canor, DAC 2.10 into the mix. For $4K it's is as good if not better than all but the very hiend Mola Mola, Berkeley, DCS and Meitner pieces. I listened to a bunch in the $3-$7500 range ... | |
Tune of the Day "Wichita Lineman" by Theo Bleckmann w/ Kate McGarry off Songs I Like a Lot / Songs We Line a Lot - they do a a nice job with this classic track. | |
The HARD ROCK & HEAVY METAL Thread Continued Never went super heavy but did bang it our to Aerosmith, The Who, Cheap Trick, etc... a ton in HS. We'd crank things up in my best bud's Mustang through his Pioneer/Jensen setup on the way to hockey games. Great times! | |
Integrated Amplifier Recommendations Needed JBL L112 should get vintage Sansui. An AU-9500 or AU-6600. A 9500 can be found under $2K and a 6600 less than $1K. Those two would be epic,... just my opinion. | |
Current or Previous Harbeth Owners… Interesting post... I had Harbeth M30.1 bought in 2015. Loved them until I happened upon a little know speaker from Canada (by way of Belgium) called the Equation 7. Not a stand mount but a narrow, shallow smaller 2/way tower. Incredibly well buil... | |
Any regrets in selling gear? Audio Note, Meishu Line... Good God, what was I thinking!? | |
Tune of the Day Paul Weller, "The Changingman" off Stanley Road. An all time favorite artist as evidenced by my avatar. Been a fan since The Jam of the 70's | |
Tune of the Day Must be Alison Krauss week... AK & Union Station, Looking In The Eyes Of Love a truly beautiful a track | |
My wife weighed in…she wants piano white tower/bookshelf KEF Reference 5 Meta White/Gold... I'm sure you have the electronics to push these around. | |
Seeking a Warm 12AX7 Tube for Preamp @skiznfliz, @trivema - triple mica black plate GE 5751 are the bomb for sure. I bought a set last summer from a local Mass dealer. Use them in my lineatage and they are just sublime. A better fit with my heavily re-worked Valencias. Super quiet t... | |
Pop album that has stood the test of time + 1 @tooblue - big EC fan... love Joe Jackson, Talk Talk, XTC, The Cure so much great 80s music. Wasn't all Madonna & Duran Duran. I found Alt County at this time too, Lone Justice, The Jayhawks, Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, etc. Really a to... |
