| van morrison's best sounding album? Another great album--though not entirely Van--is Van Morrison and the Chieftains. It's true that his earlier work was not produced as well as some of the later recordings, which I might even call SLICK in their production. However, I think that to... | |
| van morrison's best sounding album? "Astral Weeks" will be in my coffin, in the hopes that I will be granted access to www.Audio-Gone.com in the afterlife.That is one album that I cannot do without. Hope you enjoy it! | |
| Help Should I make this move? To my ear, the Opus 21 is a phenomenal player...and yet the Capitole is far more emotional and engaging. We currently have the AA Prima, and the Capitole is the next mountain we'll be climbing.As Ben Stiller said playing Starsky, "Do It!"Between m... | |
| help narrowing down my list of speakers, $2500 Jrwr7,If you're ever in the Sacramento area, I invite you to come on by and have a listen to Tool/Soundgarden/Kings X on our Sonata II's. In fact, we only use them for rock. I think they might overpower Jamiec001's room--and Alan Yun (Silverline's... | |
| help narrowing down my list of speakers, $2500 I agree, and I am voting for Maxxc as class president. In fact, if Maxxc is available for the next four years, I'm writing him in on the national ballot.All kidding aside:Based on your list, if you are going with floorstanders (my preference), I w... | |
| Coldplay's "A Rush of Blood to the Head" Hammergjh,Read the fine print. I think the album includes a fold-out poster of a Gwyneth Paltrow. Still no takers? | |
| help narrowing down my list of speakers, $2500 Totally agree, Maxx, about the sub. I had a pretty nice one, but in a small room it never seemed to sound as blended as when the speaker itself had all of the bass duties. And the Sonata II's are astounding in that regard--from Bach to Rock, as yo... | |
| Coldplay's "A Rush of Blood to the Head" Pick up a Catherine Wheel album:"Adam & Eve""Chrome""Happy Days"They are Coldplay with cojones, and better production as well. | |
| help narrowing down my list of speakers, $2500 I am using a pair of Silverline Sonata II speakers (and the Prima CDP as well) in a room that is 2' larger than yours in each direction. I use them primarily for rock: Tool, Soundgarden, XTC, Catherine Wheel, Jeff Buckley, etc. I bought them for a... | |
| best shippers? Just shipped a pair of speakers with DHL. One arrived in two days with a little damage. The other arrived nine days later with significant damage. During those nine days, they had no idea where it was. I won't use them again. | |
| Best speaker for $1500???, Have Cary SLI-80 As to what Gmood1 said, ditto!Soliloquy 6.3's can be had for under $1500, and they are a great speaker. | |
| Copper vs. Silver interconnects Robert,You're supposed to make me feel better, not show photos of a drumset that looks like Bobby Brady's wet dream! I don't have photos of my kit, but if you could imagine a 35 year old Rogers set that my father passed along to me after he stoppe... | |
| Copper vs. Silver interconnects Thanks again for all of the input. I'm going to try out the AU24's next. I'm not too harried about this process, given that I really like the cables I currently use. I just thought it would be fun to try out some others, and I'm always up for that... | |
| Copper vs. Silver interconnects Ptmconsulting, are you a drummer as well? I prefer tonal accuracy in the sound of the drums (again, silver has worked best so far in my systems), and the sense that the music is coming to me as opposed to me having to suss it out, for lack of a be... |
