| Rodney Crowell, anyone heard the Cicadas? Absolutely! It's more up tempo both musically and subject-wise. | |
| Anyone else heard "The Houston Kid?" Yes, I have it and like it. I don't believe it's autobiographical by any means. | |
| Suggestions of Excellent Hawaiian music? I agree with Drrasta. This CD is by Lead K.....and is excellent. The best all around music is by the Peter Moon Band. | |
| AIR'S "10000Hz Legend". Me too. | |
| AIR'S "10000Hz Legend". I can't listen to their music at high volume at all. It literally makes me sick to my stomach! | |
| Best jazz either purchased or released in 2001 Jane Monheit's Dreamland | |
| Most beautiful violin recording you have heard Mark Oconnor's Ashokan Farewell | |
| How hard is it to admit you bought bad gear? I agree. It's a shame that reviews like Stereophile's Recommended Componenents have so much weight as to what is good or bad. I bought an outstanding product 7 years ago, a DPS design set of speakers from Quadrature. The interest in their line has... | |

| Nashville Audio or Home Theater Shops Herman is right on! I would just add Tower Records also out near Vandy for good CD selection. | |
| Better cable substitue's for my system, for silver ic cables Try the Stealth PGS. You describe them perfectly when you say you want the detail/transparency without the brightness. | |

| Better Quality CD's It depends on your taste in music. Mine is rather eclectic, so I'll recommend two labels I enjoy. Acoustic Disc and MA Recordings. They are both painstakingly recorded and offer outstanding sonic quality. | |
| any further experience with PIEGA P10? Yes. I have a pair and I have never heard anything that even comes close. By all means audition a pair. If you can't, call Steve Davis at Hi-Fi Farm and work out something. You can't do any better! Steve or the Piega. |
