| D'Agostino Interview Kodak, I loved that part of the interview too!!!Be careful Dan, they'll be labeling you zip cord Danny!I'm with you Dan. Not a fan of high dollar cables. But I support the choice for those that do to pursue whatever floats your boat. | |
| Recommended Tube Amp for ML CLS I model Well, I believe ones results with the CLS speakers will vary upon the type of listening one does. What drives ML's best in general has been beaten to death on previous threads about it. Do a search and you'll get the phone book of opinions.Having ... | |
| Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect? Onhwy61, as a contributor to the original thread 8 years ago, welcome back!You don't see the connection, fair enough.Contrary to what you wrote 8 years ago many believe jazz evolved because of Bebop, not in spite of it.As an example I offer a comm... | |
| Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect? MrMitch, it's a given that white record exec's have always called the shots concerning talent, promotion, production. I eluded to that in earlier comments regarding 'packaged goods' being bought and sold in the dumming down of a society. Profit tr... | |
| I know this has probably been discussed... As a side note it was refreshing to hear Dan D'Agostino acknowledge during a recent web interview that vinyl yields far greater bandwith than digital. Vinyl lives!http://twit.tv/htg"I came up in Kansas City when the joints were runnin' full blast ... | |
| Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect? This debate goes far beyond simply soothing ones "mood" or preference for music.Peaceful coexistence is fabulous and the ideal.

| How popular is Wire Transfer..... If a thief wants your money he'll go to most any length to get it. There is no guaranteed system that protects both buyer and seller. 8 years ago some thief in Florida established a bank account using false ID. He then listed great buys on gear, a... | |

| martin logan prodigy vs sound lab m-2 Duke it's kewl. We can all relate to writing about gear we're passionate about. I second Jeffkad, and personally if I could afford SL's I'd likely not be living with ML's. Nothing against my CLS', but we know it's not a true full range ESL. But w/... | |
| Moving/shipping Avantgarde speakers Well, rack up another vote for C&F. They custom built the crates, shrinkwrapped the speakers to my specifications, bubble wrapped them, then custom cut dense shipping foam material insulating the crate interior from the speakers. When I popped... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Hifin, now you're talking. Talk about an idea whose time has come! I'll take two of those in a tobacco sunburst please, and ya better gimme a second pair in a flamin' maple to match my Gibson archtop. HA! | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Phil you're crackin' me up! I can see the marketing genius of it all now. Hey you guitar player's, if you really want to give that Les Paul a modern twist, hookup that 50 year old Fender Deluxe Reverb to a pair of Zu Superfly's. OMG, where is Curt... | |
| Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect? Neil Armstrong setting foot upon the moon one July 1969-Albert Einstein discovering the theory of relativity-The Beatle's appearing on the Ed Sullivan show one 1964 Sunday evening-All were but moments in time, that changed the direction of life on... | |
| Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect? T_bone and Onhwy61, very valid points. Personally, I've always thought of art as being in the eye, or in this case the ear, of the beholder. I can't now recall how many decades ago it was I first read the phrase in print: Jazz is America's only tr... | |
| Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect? Kudo's to you Albert. It's always refreshing to observe the truth in print. Hot system there too. Whewwwwww, doggie! |
