The new Bob Dylan
Yep, I like him. 
Music is FUN
What did the baroque chicken say? Bach...Get it? HAAAAA! This thread is killing me. 
Happy Record Store Day
Was in NYC yesterday and passed a record store uptown...must have been over 200 people lined up before they opened their doors at 11:00. Yes, vinyl is doing well there. 
Can I tweak L-R balance by differntial biasing?
Or you could use an outboard digital EQ ie an Ultracurve and use it as a balance control. I have hearing loss in my left ear, and though I still cannot achieve an absolutely perfect center image like before, it is close with this set up. I have fo... 
Hi end audio stores in Miami, Ft lauderdale area?
I live 10 miles west of Hollywood Sound, and Larry is awesome. He knows good sound...highly recommended. 
PMC vs. Salk Sound Speakers. Which is better?
Audiozen,Perhaps you are confused in regards to number of parts and sound quality. Some of the world's most highly-regarded speakers have very few parts. Take Fried speakers, for example. Their designer, Bud Fried, used anywhere from 6-10 parts p/... 
The most overlooked album
I love Ryan Adams. I do NOT love his wife. Sorry Jeff 1951 :( 
New Bowie album
I really wanted to like it, but my god, it is perhaps the most over-produced junk I now have in my CD collection. BTW, I am a huge Bowie fan. As I listened to it for the first time, I quickly realized that the album is a classic example of fine mu... 
AC power delivery and Power conditioners.

Opinions on Land Rover LR2
No one cares what kind of cars you drive...really. 
"Dented tweeters — Does not affect sound "
Yes, if God meant for tweeter domes to be dented, he would have made them that way. 
Static electricity Killin me.
I actually killed my wall thermostat w/static elec once and had this problem w/my stereo in cold, dry Virginia. I solved it by grabbing one leg of my metal rack before touching a component. 
How do I smooth out violins?
Musicfile,Good suggestions, but finances don't allow for replacing caps in the DNA and a tube pre...will have to go with just the pre for now. 
How do I smooth out violins?
My, I see that there are quite a few variables here, and Jult52, my issue is also massed violins, so it's good to know that you improved their sound with jitter control. Ironically, I don't remember having this problem in an earlier system (differ... 
How do I smooth out violins?
Gentleman,First of all, many thanks for such informative (and spirited) responses, and I failed to mention that I do have all of my components plugged into an APC S-15 power conditioner/sine wave generator/battery backup. I think that I will check...
