Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @lowrider57 In discussions with a vendor for Linlai tubes, I asked about the difference between the "Elite Tube" and the "Global Elite". He told me Linlai only makes one tube in the Elite series. Claims the "Global" is nothing more than brandin... | |
How did 70s rock music transition into 80s music? What's with all the Keith bashing? Just listen to any of his acoustic work and stop your whinging. | |
Mood lighting for listening One more is support of the warm glow of tubes reflecting of the walls and ceiling. Almost as sexy as the dashboard lights. 🤣 | |
Late night blues Don't dismiss this until you hear it. Sax man Tom Scott, LP/CD Smokin' Section. Track - Ode To Billy Joe. Stunning bluesy take on this old chestnut. Great guest vocal and smokin' sax work. | |
What I really hate about some music Life is too short to drink light (lite) beer, eat poor cuts of steak and listen to music you don't like. Just don't give it a second spin. Easy Peasy. | |
Owning Up To It @jasonbourne52 It's a Canadian thing. Years later Keef gets busted in TO with significant amount of heroin. Anyone else goes to jail. Judge makes the stones do two free concerts for the CNIB (Canadian National Institute for the Blind) Many cla... | |

Speaker Placement Measurements There are as many recomendations as fish in the sea, but one I like is the formula from Focal. It goes: A < B < C, where A = the shortest distance from center of the woofer to either floor, rear wall or side wall. B = next closest distance f... | |
Is it worth using an Anticable level 5 for a PHONO PREAMP? Overkill? Not to be "bashing" cables, but lets's address the OP's question. Is it worth spending money on a high end 8 AWG power cable to feed his Parasound JC3+ phonoo pre amp (the same unit I have in my system). The specs show the power draw by the JC3+... | |
Is it worth using an Anticable level 5 for a PHONO PREAMP? Overkill? Have another glass of Kool-Aid. | |
Why Music Has Lost it’s Charms (Article) Another old guy complaining that "todays music isn't as good as the music I grew up with". Every generation says the same thing. I think we all have a time in our lives, 18 - 30 (?) that becomes the music we love. Because the boomer generation ... | |
what’s a song cover that you think is better than the original? The Cure doing Purple Haze on the tribute Lp Stone Free. |
