| Your last concert was to see who and when? I saw David Crosby last night in Portland (OR) at the Aladdin Theater, an old venue with about 600 seats. He was in great form, had a killer band, and there was great interplay with the audience. Go see him if you're a fan of his music and have an... | |
| Saxaphone vs. Trumpet...Which do you prefer? Depends who's playing and what they're playing. Its not the instrument, its the music. | |
| Tool Fear Inoculum impressions I'm wondering if they hurt their overall sales, releasing it the way they did. I was all set to buy it as soon as it came out without having heard anything from it, only to find out that every record store only had a handful of copies of a "specia... | |
| Marantz PM KI Pearl Integrated According to Michael Fremer's Stereophile review of the SACD it has a Toslink input, so you should be able to use it as a DAC. I've never tried with mine. | |
| Marantz PM KI Pearl Integrated I think that's a no on your question about the sacd player but I'm not home and can neither confirm or deny... | |
| Tool Fear Inoculum impressions I think it's a great sounding record, I miss some of the vitriol and rawness of their earlier work. | |
| DAC: Before I jump in... I like DACs that don't sound "digital". The MHDT Orchid fits that bill for me and is under your budget. | |
| Marantz PM KI Pearl Integrated I'd grab it. I doubt it will be either of those things. It's local, so you'll be able to audition it, correct? | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Lana Del Rey - Norman F_____ Rockwell and Sheryl Crow - Threads on Qobuz this morning. Doing some headphone listening with the Focal Elex. I love these headphones! | |
| Technics SL-1700 feet @mads1 I’m very happy with the feet. It’s hard to say how much difference they made because I did a couple of mods to my turntable at the same time, filling much of the inside of the plinth with plastic-clay and adding the feet. The feet that the ... | |
| Marantz PM KI Pearl Integrated I was considering upgrading one of my integrateds recently and came close to pulling the trigger on a KI Pearl. I haven't heard one, but have owned a few Marantz pieces, including a KI Pearl SACD player, which is probably the nicest sounding sour... | |
| DAC: Before I jump in... Using an external DAC can improve the sound quality from the Node 2i, but the DAC that's included is really good for the price. I am running my Node 2 through an Auralic Vega in my main system and a Mytek Liberty in my 2nd system. In addition to... | |
