| Hidden Audiophile Classics here are several, tho i don't know whether they are "classics" to you. they are to me: (1) the roches, "the roches"; (2) harry nilsson, "nilsson sings newman" (30th anniversary ed.); (3) the bobs, "the bobs cover the songs of..."; (4) "the unaccom... | |
| MISSING THE POINT? i search nearly every day for "new music," rock, folk, blues, classical or any other genre that sounds interesting. i typically buy or otherwise obtain (my older son and his wife are both in the radio/entertainment industry & pass on lots of d... | |
| CD Recordings audioquest offers a handful of discs on both sacd and so-called "redbook" format. i've heard only a couple of the sacd's from audioquest but own numerous "redbook" titles. by and large the entire audioquest catalouge is well-recorded and includes ... | |
| Replace my dac (NOW!)? i recommend considering only a dac that allows 24bit/196 Khz source processing, or at least is upgradable to these specs or higher. unfortunately, the units i believe best meet this requirement may be more costly than your system demands. they are... | |
| New Enya Album garfish: i apologize. you were right. "paint the sky" did come out first on the us cd. it's also on the australian 3 cd box set called "a box of dreams." i thought the austrailian box preceded the us cd. it didn't. i do, BTW, highly recommend a bo... | |
| Great Sounding New Releases mfgrep: i agree on grissman's stuff. besides "shady grove," my faves are "not for children only" and "the pizza tapes." i also recommend the acoustic sound samplers called "100% handmade sound." there are 5 volumes in this series, each with a grea... | |
| New Enya Album 'common, u really think enya is capable of a "new sound"? enjoy her for what she is; if nothing else, she should be applauded for the work she puts into her stuff, all the overdubbing and celtic lyrics. BTW garfish, "paint the sky w/ stars" was no... | |
| Great Sounding New Releases yo ralph! finally a gd cd that audiophiles might admire. being a >middle-aged deadhead, i say, "it's about time." IMHO, american beauty, mars hotel and terrapin station (particularly remastered on mfsl vinyl) are among the great rock recordings... | |
| Power Cords for Spectral equipment IMO, the spectral/mit combination is the result of an economic conspiracy between the principals of the companies, as well as the expected self-dillusional subjectivism of the unfortunate purchasers of these products. i'd advise your trying fim pc... | |
| Acoustic panels i'm sure you'll wanna read something on the subject but i'd say, generally, (if your sound panel design works-i have doubts) you'll do best starting directly behind your speakers, assuming you've already removed EVERTHING from between your transdu... | |
| New Sade Album yeah, it's well recorded, synth drum tracks and all, but, hey, it's really booooooring. | |
| where to find sacd's?? acousticsounds.com- chad kassem has the most up-to-date list of titles available for sale. | |
| FM Reception cardinal: no i'm not from nebraska., where the N on their football helmets stands for "nowledge." the spelling of connecticut in my first post was an intentional, albeit feeble, attempt at a pun. sorry you didn't get it. | |
| Anyone ever opened MIT cables? i tried to cut open a mit box. but just when the diamond-tipped blade of my sawzall was about to split the last mil of metal, i passed out, for what seemed like hours. when i awoke, there was jody foster, blocking my way, only to disappear almost ... | |
