| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report ELO -- Time from 1981. Excellent concept album. | |
| Audio Cables: All the Same? I have done A/B tests with cheap and expensive cables (ICs) with friends who are not audiophiles---they don't know squat about high-end audio. And every time, they can hear recognizable difference in sound preferring the expensive vs the standard ... | |
| Amp showing its age? I have a Denon PMA-757 integrated amp from 1985 that's still going strong. I had it serviced a few years ago, cleaning, replacing a few bulbs but that's it. Sounds great. It's powering a pair of Canton Karat 200s from 1986. | |
| Speaker candidates/suggestions I was able to audition (at home) the Totems but unfortunately they're going to be too small for my main room---I may try them in a smaller room. Hoping the Vandy's will work out. | |
| Speaker candidates/suggestions @iad Thanks---good to know. I have a chance to audition them next month when I travel out of town. I found a dealer so I can't wait! | |
| Speaker candidates/suggestions Thanks @mesch -- that's good to know. I saw on another post that Davis Belles also likes Fritz speakers. The Sugden class A is sublime. | |
| Speaker candidates/suggestions Thanks @hilde45 --- I'll check it out. I've seen really good reviews for the Carbons. The Totems get great reviews as well but apparently they love power so I'm not so sure my amps (particularly the Sugden) will be enough? On Totem's website the r... | |
| All Hail the meek --yet mighty – NODE 2i Totally agree here. I have a Bluesound Node in my second system and it works flawlessly every time. Easy to use, affordable, sounds great and takes up very little real estate. I've been curious though to hear the new-ish Bluesound Node X. | |
| New In 2024 Pet Shop Boys - Nonetheless. With special edition double CD ’Furthermore' which includes 4 reworked mixes of older songs. | |
| What gear do you want to demo? Good post! My demo wish list: 1. Totem Bison towers 2. Some Ls3/5a speakers (Falcon, Rogers or a few others) 3. Pass Labs INT-25 4. Accuphase E-280 | |

| How often, and how, do you clean your stylus? I clean before and after a listening session---I use the Mofi cleaning fluid and a little brush. Works well---no problems. | |
| Morrow Audio Speaker Cables Agree with the other posts here. I have the SP-4 as well and they are really nice. And I got them on one of their big sales---hope this helps. | |
| REAL MUSIC VS. SHOW MUSIC PERFORMANCE AT AUDIO SHOWS. PRESENTATION V. PERFORMANCE? WHY? I listen to such a variety of different music, it's hard to pick a few songs to listen to at audio shows. I never hear any of the genres I like so I gave up a long time ago---so I just walk around and see which system appeals to me. I generally do... | |
| Are You a Swifty? I think she's talented and has a good voice---but I probably wouldn't go see her in concert. I streamed part of her Eras concert and have a couple of her songs on Spotify. That being said, I think he songs are just mediocre at best. After trying t... |
