| Any Tom Waits Fans? Essential, old to new. Love Marc Ribot, amazing guitarist. | |
| "Best" 80's HiFi System NAD 3200 and KEF 104s. Pretty sweet sound. | |
| Best CD I've heard so far 2011......... Road Atlas, a compilation of B-sides that they issued with each tour. "Griptape" is a new favorite. | |
| Tom Waits Bad? This site reeks of AOR sentiment. Adventuresome music like Hip Hop and Tom Waits generally gets "flamed." In the end, hopefully your ears will be open to rich experiences like the new album. | |
| Best CD I've heard so far 2011......... I am really loving the new Calexico album, nice So Cal folk of Jonathan Wilson, and the PJ Harvey album. For vocals, hard not to love Florence + the machines. | |
| Smooth/Musical Bookshelves upto $1500 - $2000 RumadianATC handles almost all genres well. They would not be used in over 1000 studios otherwise.

| Album Of The Year 2011 Rok2idWho would want to dedicate the space and money to high end equipment. I prefer a simple digital rig and headphone amp. And all the music sounds great through phones and you eliminate neighbors complaining.Just like grandma's Wave Radio. | |
| My experience with ATC SCM 12 You should hear the active speakers matched to their pre-amps. Much better representation of their true potential. They are not very forgiving of outside firm's gear, which tends to be emphasized for all the wrong reasons. Dull to warm. The active... | |
| Any other Sony SS-AR1 owners out there? I ran them through their paces at the SHOW in Newport. I brought three non-compressed master files, two live soundboards and one master file. They perfectly recreated both a Midnight Oil and Neil Young/Crazy Horse soundboard to where you thought b... | |
| DnB and Electro Burial, Roots Manuva, Portishead "Dummy", Tricky | |
| Smooth/Musical Bookshelves upto $1500 - $2000 ATC 7s would probably meet your expectations. Pro studio. Play all genres well. |
