Guilty Pleasures
dekay: man, you must be a really big henry mancini fan to have posted twice. ;~)

sugarbrie: sorry about mixing my posts re the b-52's. the last was obviously meant for you. 
Guilty Pleasures
dekay: i have the very same 45 rpm of rock lobster. found it at a used record store in ft. collins, colo in about 1985. i also have a 12" 45 of the record done for radio broadcast. my older son, who's 31, went to numerous b-52 concerts at the late... 
Guilty Pleasures
gbeard: believe it or not, there's an mfsl lp of "abandoned luncheonette" (mfsl-069). this was not a big seller, so you should be able to find a sealed cutout on eBay. (i still have a sealed copy i bought many years ago). i don't think mfsl did a ... 
Guilty Pleasures
dekay: yeah, i remember the henry mancini stuff. i even bought some in the late-50's, early 60's. my family was pretty much from blue collar roots, of which i am quite proud. my dad was big on harmonica bands. i still think of him when i play some...

SACD/DVD Audio Combi Players?
best i've heard is the accuphase dp-100/dc-101 combo. good news is: you can upgrade the dac to accept dvd input (tho the dp-100 won't play 'em). bad news is: the pair will set you back $28k. 
Need Advice on stand mounted speakers
ae-2's are marvelous stand mounters. great imaging, mid's and high's and they go much lower than you might expect. unfortunately, you'll likely need to find a used pair. they don't makem' anymore. (bad choice, IMHO, by ae's new owners.) 
Dealer Ethics? - Anonymous disparagement
swampwalker: i just confirmed my suspicion. i, too, rated john_l's post +1, +1 and the tally came up 0, 0. 
Dealer Ethics? - Anonymous disparagement
swampwalker: the likely reason why your "vote" showed up as -1, -1 is that the tally on the post before your vote was -2, -2. as i understand it, the tally you see on any post after your vote is cumulative, counting the vote you've just made. good... 
particular art equipment art
the pARTicular racks vary in their ability to isolate sound, depending on the model and shelving material used. they are full-blown audio racks, not just arty looking furniture. i do not believe, however, that the pARTicular racks are as acoustica... 
WHERE TO BUY THIEL 7.2 DISCOUNT?
doug: ya shure, ya betcha! i'd pay retail to avoid HHF. that last comment is my personal opinion only and is NOT intended to be, nor is it, an endorsement or disparagement of any person or other legal entity associated with or connected to Audiogo... 
Best sounding tube for ARC LS-2b
edle: just curious, what is "warm, lust, mellow sound"? i think i might like it, particularly with siemens. ;~)
