Latest on Blu-Ray vs HD DVD ?
Bigtee and Bill,I just can't see putting a lot of money in a new video monitor right now as fast as that technology is changing..... So good to know that my Sony might still be up to task if I do decide to go with one of the newer DVD players. Tha... 
Latest on Blu-Ray vs HD DVD ?
I have not really been paying much attention to the new hi-res video players. I am much more of an analog 2-channel audio guy..... Having said that I do like watching movies on my HT system. So I wonder if you guy's can give me some general feedba...

Beatles Love, should I run?
05-16-07: Audiofeil"Most bands have released at least one lemon and the Beatles had no say in this one.".....Actually both Paul and Ringo consulted and gave their blessing on the project. Having George Martin on board probably means a little somet...

What are the treasures in your vinyl library?
Philojet-I don't think they were recorded seperately, but they were mixed seperately (not just a stereo summed mono). Some of the versions differ slightly in content too. From interviews I have read and heard George Martin gave the mono's much mor...

lucinda williams live
I live in Austin (Lucinda used to love here too) and I have seen her many times. The best shows I have seen her do were "back in the day" so to speak. She was playing a lot of smaller clubs when I first moved here. Her band with Gurf Morlix on gui...

Five "Golden Rules" of HiFi?
I really like what Jafox say's above. I think it's real important to educate yourself about new music, or old music that's new to you, as it is to be obsessive about equipment (for me anyway). I like the idea of hearing as many different systems a... 
Acapella vs. Avantgarde
I demoed my AVG's with a BAT VK75se at my dealer. I thought the sound was pretty bad; my dealer had the speakers set-up well (he is very knowledgable about AVG's and has a lot of experience with the brand), but the sound was rolled off and disjoin... 
TFT V-caps installed in my tweeter XO in Omega DUO
