| Vibratory or Not? Geoff - Earlier you stated how you were an early customer of Michael's. It seems like you're no longer a believer (a tunee!?) and I'm wondering what happened? Did you initially hear the benefits, or were they never there? I'd really like to hea... | |
| Celebrating The 50th Anniversary of The Allman Brothers Band I was fortunate enough to have been able to catch the AB's at the Fillmore East during the engagement that produced the legendary live records. Imagine, the Elvin Bishop Band (he had the Pointer Sisters singing back-up!) 3rd billing, Johnny Winte... | |
| How much do we at A'gon influence the industry? Reality is that the written word, on computer or paper, simply doesn't carry the weight it used to. Younger audiophiles will never know how BIG an influence Pearson/the Absolute Sound and Holt/Stereophile were in the developmental stage of this ... | |

| Is this the real life, or just death on 2 legs? Saw it this past weekend and it was really good! Here's the thing, I own 1000's of recordings and don't own a SINGLE Queen record, not my thing. That said, not many flicks give me goose bumps and when they break into 'We Are The Champions', it d... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Not that they mean much, but sometimes the Grammys get it right. Congrats to Wayne Shorter, & bandmates Brian Blade, John Pattitucci, and Danilo Perez for the Jazz win! And a special shout-out to a favorite; Dafnis Prieto, and his Big Band, ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Gonzalo Rubalcaba may very well be the '1st among equals' in this group we're discussing but as I mentioned before, they all have very extensive discographies. They've all gone through 'electric' phases, big band phases, small combo and of course... | |

| Catastrophic Accident! What To Do!? Hey all! Just wanted to give the last update on my situation. The amp’s working! Long story short, I finally got around to cleaning/detailing the amp before installing a new set of NOS tubes. All the while thinking that doing so was pretty much an... | |
| Linear tracking turntables, whatever happened? I owned a Revox AND a Mapleknoll! There's a reason why I've owned my LP12 for 28 yrs!;) | |
| Catastrophic Accident! What To Do!? 1st off, thx to everyone for yr thoughtful responses. Believe it or not, I actually feel a little better, so thx! I've got an old set of tubes that I'm going to give a shot. Maybe I'll luck out and the amp will work properly, at which point I'l... | |
| What unknown musical artist would you like to share with your fellow audiophiles? Anat Cohen - The Israeli-born clarinetist is truly one of the greatest of all time! Have you ever regretted not seeing Jimi Hendrix or John Coltrane and now it's too late? Seeing her in concert should be on every music-lover's list of things to ... |
