| Power cord choice? @isochronism Kudos to you sir for recognizing the reference of bigtwin. So few do. As I stated previously, your opinion is just as valid as mine. I only state the facts of personal experience. Upgrading cables has made little to no differenc... | |
| Power cord choice? I'm sure I'll take some heat for this post but I'll say it anyway. The power to your equipment travels miles from the source to your home. Through your main panel and walls to the final outlet. Your amp and/or power conditioners are designed to... | |
| Dedicated Circuit In theory, the running of a dedicated line to your stereo should help to eliminate "noise" created by other appliances sharing the line. TV would be a good example. Keeping in mind that both power conditioners and your amplifier are supposed to ... | |
| What are your favorite Classical LPs? Deutsche Grammophon issued a 250th anniversary, Beethoven box set containing every piece of music he composed. 118 CDs & 5 Blu Ray DVDs. I own about 200 classical LPs but find myself returning to this box set all the time. If someone has an... | |
| Everybody’s Top 5 - Vinyl @roadwhorerecords Bongo Fury ha ha . When I read that I had to pull out my copy and give it a spin. She's not quite 200 years old and still sound great. Thanks. | |
| WHAT SONG TOUCHES YOUR HEART THE MOST? "I shouted out who killed the Kennedys, when afterall, it was you and me" You either know the song or you don't. | |

| 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. |
