3 great tube preamps. Which would you purchase?
@goldprintaudio Thanks for the suggestions regarding the Bel Canto amp---would the PS Audio Stellar GS DAC be a good fit as well? I've also heard good reviews about the Bel Canto and Rogue combo. Question: What interconnects work well with this co...

Thanks Jay---good to know. Does Paul's son have a website? I've read some good reviews about Butcher Block. I haven't purchased anything yet---I might end up with additional units next year. Box Furniture is an option too but they're a little pric...

Hi Jay---we have similar systems. I've been updating mine over the past 6 months after many years of having the same audio equipment. I have a Marantz ND8006 integrated amp (using as a preamp for a Bel Canto REF500S amp---which sounds really good.... 
Whats playing on your system today?
Don't judge---the new Madonna song. Didn't like it on first listen---by the 5th time, it's really good.  
Some Thoughts on Axpona 2019--from an Axpona Newbie
Sounds like fun---I hope to go for the first time next year. Did anyone meet Kevin Deal from Upscale Audio? 
Your last concert was to see who and when?
Jeff Lynne's ELO----incredible! They're touring again this summer. Catch them if you can.

Thanks for the recommendations---I've seen many good reviews regarding Timber Nation. They can custom make what you need as well. Mapleshade looks nice too--thanks!!  
Does your mood reflect your media choice?
Mood definitely affects my music selection. But after a long day, streaming is easier. Any other time, CDs or vinyl. Occasionally, I'll play an old mix tape on my 1991 Denon cassette deck---that's a lot of fun too.

I'm going to try and attend the Capital Audiofest show in Washington DC in November. I'm not far from DC so its more convenient. :) 
Axpona 2019
I've never been to Axpona but I'm going to try and go next year. Besides listening rooms, what other exhibits to they have? Can you buy vinyl, supplies etc? The classes sound fun---this would a great way to get more young people interested in the ...

I hope to go next year. I'm going to the Washington DC show in November---my first! Can't wait to go. Have fun everybody! 
Disco...yep, I'm going there
The death of disco was still going strong in 1979 when they had a Disco Demolition Night at Comiskey Park in Chicago. I don't think any other type of music has been through anything like that. But disco morphed itself into Hi-NRG dance music throu... 
Disco...yep, I'm going there
I love disco and classic dance/club music. I was too young to go to 'discos' in the late 70s but started going out to the new wave clubs in the early 80s. My vinyl consists of albums, 45s, EPs and 12" singles. I think part of disco's demise was se...
