Best drink while listening to your rig?
Hooper... yes, port and Jackson Browne is a good pairing! I know what you mean about evoking winter... 
Music News Update March
I'm particularly looking foward to the Clapton release and the Richard/Linda Thompson remasters......but, this month, mostly looking forward to the Dylan 1964 issue!

Ffontan... I understand completely... absolutelySlipknot... and the motor drive, no doubt, is better for it, too?!

"By the way, I always listen to music...I don't think I ever listen to the rig itself..." Well said, Ffontan!! 
JPS ultraconductor vs. acoustic zen epoch, help
I've heard the JPS in two systems, one was all ATC the other was my mongrel of a system. Very nice, clean presentation. I liked them a lot, but have settled on some DIY cables. As for the AZ, I've not tried these particular ones. I think if cost i...

I agree with Sdcampbell about well-recorded organ music. I'll add two more suggestions:James Carter "Chasin' the Gypsy." On this album, Carter plays bass saxophone as a lead instrument on a number of tracks. On the first track (Nuages), in particu... 
Interconnect to tame bright sounding CDP

Interconnect to tame bright sounding CDP
Andy, I have the same VdH ICs from my phono stage to amp. They are not at all "bright" in my opinion. What is the rest of your system? Amp, speakers, speaker cables?
