| Nora Jones new CD -- Copy Protection -- YIKES I received the same response. I still would like to know how these companies plan to deal with hard drive-based systems which I'm sure will gain market share over time. | |
| Smooth sounding DAC? Audio Note! | |
| Book on McIntosh Call or email them and suggest it. I would guess that there is a market for it, probably even a nicer limited edition version. | |
| Book on McIntosh You can find old Mcintosh catalogs and literature on Ebay. | |
| Help this budding Classical audiophile Gemini, I'm in the same position; new to classical and trying to learn about the seemingly millions of classical offerings. I would recommend a copy of The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs and DVDs 2003/2004. I've been browsing through it a lot late... | |
| Tube rolling Audio Note DACs I've tried these 3 tubes:Telefunken CCa gold pinWestinghouse 7308 E188CC gold pinJJ E88CCThe Telefunken is my favorite. It is clearly better than the JJs with an even presentation over the frequency spectrum. Very nice midrange, but I think it's a... | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? OK, A few of my comments were petty. I apologize. But FWIW, I'm still loving my Sistrum platforms. | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? I think Lonelynote's response was perfectly appropriate. Often times manufacturers who participate in these forums end up either sticking their foot in their mouth by getting involved in petty arguments or they get harassed by people who seem to e... | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? There are a lot of egos in this thread. Nothing like pumping up is there! One thing I've learned is never comment on something unless you've tried it. I'm assuming all the negative comments on this thread about Sistrum are from those who have trie... | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? This thread seems to have turned into doubt about the Sistrum product, but let me tell you they work! I just received mine late yesterday -- speakers platforms and a platform for my transport -- and set them up last night. I turned the music on an... | |
| Nora Jones new CD -- Copy Protection -- YIKES One thing I forgot to add was that the retail on the new Norah Jones album and the new Keb Mo album I purchased at the same time at B&N was $19! "On sale" for $16. Weren't they supposed to be lowering the price of CDs? Most new DVDs cost $10. | |
| Nora Jones new CD -- Copy Protection -- YIKES Prpixel, There was an article in the New York Times Magazine a few weeks ago about copyright issues. The concern is that in fact you don't have full rights to the music; you actually lease the music to be used as they tell you can use it. The arti... | |
| Nora Jones new CD -- Copy Protection -- YIKES Whether they give a rat's &%$$ or not we should at least speak up. I don't mean we should rant and be rude about, but email them and inform them of how we listen to our music these days. Without customer feedback how are they to know what's re... | |
| Nora Jones new CD -- Copy Protection -- YIKES What does that mean -- "meant to be played on..."? It's a CD and anything that can play a CD should be able to play it. Just my opinion. I guess they'll have to start labeling packaging stating that "this CD will only play on components of our cho... | |
| Best Budget Integrated Hands down The Blue Circle CS gets a lot of things right plus it's small. The BC gear is high quality. |
