| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @tylermunns Easy. What percentage of Whites bought those records? A very few, otherwise Motown and Philly would have sold many many more records. Rock ruled the day. Some of that was great. Some not so. Nothing to do with rap. But why agree with R... | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" Perhaps. But what percentage of people actually listened to SOUL music back in the days of Motown and Philadelphia Soul back in the day? A very small percentage I’d imagine. So why hide behind Ray Charles words when you didn’t listen to soul when ... | |
| Dennis Had Inspire PSE 300B WOW!!! I read your review on the Audio Afficianado forum. Happy you’re experiencing great things with Inspire amps. Great looking speakers too!!! | |
| WHEN DID YOU FINALLY STOP... When I ran out of money, and interest in going down a rabbit hole after more. | |
| going from tube preamp to solid state For my money the 6SN7 is the far superior tube, and they’re a much larger variety of them in NOS. Plus you can swap them for a CV181. The 6922 is far more limited, imo. But to each their own. | |
| One of the great things about Vinyl It’s superior to digital. | |
| What is your experience with amp power? I listen to electrostats. Although they’re known as power mongers driving them with tubes more than gets the job done! I’m using 75 watt monoblocks which get the job done. I don’t need more power. | |
| Why do we stop listening to new music as we get older? If you listened to 60’s and 70’s music you know the reason why. A lack of actual hits! | |
| Name 3 songs where audio quality and song quality completely align I could name them, but you won’t have heard them, so there’s no point. | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream MK2 DAC Don’t issue products with known hum. What company does that? For $6k no less. Forget that!!! | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time I’m a die hard Jazz listener, who was raised on Motown and Philly soul. But growing up I listened to Rock too. You couldn’t escape it, for that is what was played on the radio 24/7. And there were great rock bands, Chicago, The Beach Boys, heck I ... | |
| Integrated amp recommendation Save some money, buy a Willsenton R8 tube integrated. It’s well tested on the audio market. Great KT88 tube amp that will drive your speakers with ease. Check YouTube for the Willsenton R8 and thank me later. Amazon carries them, in black or silve... | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time @thespeakerdude, Excellent post, and I heartily agree!!! | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time I’m black. I’m also a jazz musician as my jazz archtop photo and name suggest. I have also invested countless hours studying jazz history. I suggested that jazz was created by black people because what were the odds of the most disenfranchised cre... | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time How many here can argue the complexities of “jazz.” Frankly, unless you’re a musician educated in jazz, who can truly play, it’s beyond your comprehension. So in essence, there’s no argument to be had. There’s no racism in stating jazz was create... |
