Girl diagnoses & solves mechanical problem
sarah,i'm actually much more impressed with your mechanical skills, being another lawyer, than i am of such, being a woman. as my bride of 35 years reminded me last month: had there been three wise women, they would have arrived on time, helped de... 
Songs & Artists NEVER HEARD on the RADIO?
problem is the great bulk of fm radio stations these days are owned by a handful of conglomerates. in my market, denver, two companies own the top 14 (in ratings) stations. much of what you hear is downloaded hard disks with inner-cuts from other ... 
Wadia confirm a rumour
otis: it is my understanding that the current owners of wadia (who had been the prior owners' first-position secured creditors) purchased only the assets of the foregoing company, which, of course, excluded the liability characterized as "warranty... 
Any updates on firewire and SACD?
jeff: the reason the question is important lies in the stndardization of connections/ports for sacd data transmission. if one company , for example, chose to make a transport that used a proprietary connection (as accuphase has done), then that tr... 
Any good audio book suggestions ???
sean: notwithstanding your admonition to tim, i suggest you read "high fidelity" by nick hornby. it's a novel that i think might be ultimately more instructive about our hobby than some, maybe all, of the standard texts. of course, you can also vi... 
New Classe CRCD All-In-One? Anyone heard it?
jeff: just an attempt at humor. the classe piece actually looks kinda' interesting for a kitchen or office. i'd like to hear the price, too (in USD). -cfb 
New Classe CRCD All-In-One? Anyone heard it?
boy, i wonder if classe has plans to expand its product line to include toasters and other kitchen appliances. i doubt i could sell my spouse, tho, on a multi-channel food processor. -cfb 
Any updates on firewire and SACD?
turnaround: according to dcs, the IEEE1394 (firewire) interface has already been adopted as the standard for copy-protected digital transmission of sacd signals. dcs uses the IEEE1394 on its new verdi sacd/cd transport. if and when sacd becomes a ... 
Will people buy Snake Oil?
asa: >>narcissistically sit on the apex heap of an over-inflated microcosm< this is just gobbledygook. IMO, your repeated bunkum comprises only an emunctory achievement. -cfb 
accuphase 75 vs. electrocompaniet mk11
mzn50: the accuphase dp-85 plays AND decodes redbook cd's and sacd's. thus, you'd not need another dac unless you wished to play the handful of dvd-a's so far available or any multi-channel digital audio sources. i'm still going thru my listening ... 
Stradivari Drum Funny
sorry, but the joke makes no bloody sense to me. is this another take on sax and violins? -cfb 
Ear Candy: Most startling recordings.
bishopwill: the lp is called "virgil fox-the fox touch, volume two". it was released in 1977 by crystal clear records. i'm lookin' at a m/m copy of this disc as i type. haven't heard it in a while. think i'll crank up the compressor and get my ana... 
Who R U?
jonathan: if you keep makin' comments like that, you'd better watch your backside, lest you're targeted by the aaoic (american association of old irascible cynics). i’m a life, or what’s left of it, member. - cfb 
How many power conditioners do you own and use?
avguygeorge: you're right. stick with the "av" part. i doubt you'd look good in a dress.-kelly 
How many power conditioners do you own and use?
george: so i think perhaps you need to drop the "av" part of your moniker. in answer to your question: zero.-cfb
