| FIM Gold Power Cords Problems? There has been much talk on web-sites and within the industry about the FIM Cable, since it's introduction. They, in my opinion as well as many others, have raised performance levels dramatically. I'm sure that their popularity, (and sales), have ... | |
| absolute best component you ever owned Tube Research Labs amps/pre-amps. | |
| Pacific Northwest Audio Society Regarding your meeting on the 8th, will Byron from Audioprism be present? How about Winston Ma of FIM Cables? They both live in your area. | |
| Most overpriced audio component made Good point vegasears. This is why many of us have dedicated circuits and sub-panels for our listening rooms, with heavier gauge wire installed. Well worth the money and/or effort. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Alon Wolfs' "Magico" speaker. Cabinet structure built with CNC milled aluminum (minimum 1/2" thick), and the best drivers known. | |
| Audiogon "RECORDINGS TO DIE FOR" list Here goes; 1) Lee morgan "Candy" 2) "For Duke" M&K Records 3) Louis Smith "Smithville" 4) Mobley/Morgan "Peckin' Time" 5)Nearly anything "pre-sabatical" Sonny Rollins 6) Nearly anything on the Contemporary label during the 1950's. (Sorry, it i... | |
| Shakti Stone? Albert, you may be onto something here, LP#9 as an additive for gasoline. Hmmm ... | |
| Shakti Stone? Ben Piazza of Shakti has been infiltrating the automotive industry. It seems that the addition of the Shakti "On-Lines" on the computers and coil wiring on factory sponsored racing motorcycles, makes a 750 seem more like riding an 850. So, for tho... | |

| What time do you wear? I collect watches from the 30's to 50's, mainly preferring those with rose gold cases. Today I'm wearing an inexpensive 1934 Bulova 21 jewel, rose gold drivers watch. (I think that I'd paid somewhere around $60.00 for it). It's a fun hobby, and wh... | |
| Biggest Baddest Audio Cables Cool, were all going to get along. Takes a big man to admit he is wrong, more so when the tempers flare and the story/saga escalates to the degree it had. Thanks Carl. | |
| Heaviest Amps ever made. The Tube Research Labs 4 chassis 800 Watt amps weigh in somewhere around 1200 pounds total. Winston Ma of First Impression Music purchased the first set back in 1991, and has retained them as his reference amps since. Photos are available at www.s... | |
| Best sounding CD of Brass? Try "For Duke" on M&K Records and see if there is a Bethlehem Records CD issue of "Sincerely, Conte Candoli" out there. Both possess very natural tonal brass instruments and are very dynamic. | |
| Hidden Audiophile Classics Just about all of the jazz on Contemporary label during the 1950's. | |
| High Fidelity Sex Objects Any of you remember the Speaker Art speakers on display at CES about 6 or 7 years back that looked like HUGE phallic devices? |
