| Used Martin Logans I bought a pair of Martin Logan SL3 back in 1995. Paid $3800 (CDN). Sold them last year for $1200. I loved them for 25 years, and the fellow that bought them, after listening to them, thought they were worth what he paid. Maybe that's why ther... | |
| Purchase from Canada One thing to be aware of with Canada Post. They have no ability to track your shipment once it crosses into the U.S. You can pay extra for tracking but............ | |
| Jazz Music Question One more for you. Sony Music released a CD called Chet Baker & Paul Desmond Together. Contains the 7 studio tracks they recorded together (56 min). Beautifully recorded and a real treat for listening. | |
| When Everything Comes Together Any chance there was some THC involved? Always takes the musical experience to the next level for me. Been that way for the past 50 years. | |
| Jazz Music Question I agree that is a classic LP. May I suggest you will also like any/all LP's by Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers. Solo work by Lee Morgan. Grant Green's LP Idle Moments. Just to name a few. | |
| Purchase from Canada @ tropicana20 When importing stereo equipment into Canada, we are only charged a sales tax. That would be 5% - 15% depending on the Province. My suspicion is the U.S. would be similar. I'm sure the info would be available on the net or with ... | |
| Nicks or McVie..... My favorite Mac LP is Live in Chicago, but of the two women in question, my nod would go to Christine. Partly because I think she is the superior song writer, and therefore sounds better when singing her own tunes. | |
| New speakers dilemma for vinyls... Heeelp! :))) You mention a budget of $6,000. Are you looking at the used market as well? Likely you could look at speakers that retail at twice that price if you're willing to let someone else take the big hit for buying new. With all the people out there t... | |
| Great Recordings, Sonically Speaking - and Why. Jazz, by Ry Cooder is an excellent and interesting LP. I see Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab is referenced above. I purchased their very expensive re release of Ry Cooder's Paradise & Lunch. Sad to say it was money wasted as my original copy of... | |
| Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels. Headphones. | |
| OK - Now What…? If you are "absolutely thrilled with the sound of this system", there is only one question you need to answer. Will the tiny improvement in sound, that buying new equipment MIGHT give you, be completely drowned out by the sound of your money flyi... | |
| My Apologies to Miller Carbon Leave on or turn off? My amp, Hegel H590, as well as my CD Transport, both go into standby mode when sitting idle for about 15 minutes. Not sure if this equates to disconnecting the power supply but the manufacturer clearly did not intend to hav... | |
| Joni Mitchell, BLUE album is 50 years old, NYT Article Naturally, the NYT won't let me read the linked article unless I sign up. | |
| The best $99 system upgrade ever! Forget the ear plugs. What you want to to do is put on a blackout eye mask for several hours before each listening session. The loss of sight really improves the other senses. |
