| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? Just got an AMAZING deal on a Benz E550. I was going to buy a second BMW, but couldn't pass up this deal. The Harmon Kardon sound is OK. Might see if I can upgrade it. | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? A nice single-malt is going very well today with Bettye LaVette | |
| Best single-malt Scotch... Heading off to Ireland in two weeks and was wondering what single-malt Irish whisky I might look for. | |
| Bruce at The Super Bowl.... Pardon jumping across types of music and across the centuries...but, Dylan vs. Springsteen is a little like comparing Mozart to Beethoven. Both are great, but I prefer one over the other most days of the week.As it so happens, Dylan has a new albu... | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? Vinylmeister... nicely put! Methinks I'll pop a bottle of something red tonight. | |
| Hawaii Thanks, Jwrace. I see Hagerman posting here from time to time. If I'm in the market for new components, I'll definitely look him up. As for service, I'm still looking for a good shop. | |
| Modern day female jazz recommendations I have to "second" the Tierney Sutton recommendations. An earlier poster, last year, mentioned Tierney Sutton's voice as being nasal. I completely disagree with that. Her voice is silky pure. The nassl one, in my opinion, is Stacey Kent. Paula Wes... | |
| Hawaii Bump...I'm interested in this, too, and wonder if there are any other recommended venues, not just for new equipment but for service, tweeking, etc. | |
| Songs about ecology John Prine's "Paradise." How could I have forgotten that great song?! It's all about coal mining companies ravaging the landscape. Here's one verse in particular:Then the coal company came with the world's largest shovelAnd they tortured the timbe... | |
| Songs about ecology Dylan's "Hard Rain". This song has other geopolitical messages, but there is definitely an environmental component to it. | |
| David Bromberg -- Any fans? Used to see him regularly when I was in college. I still spin his LPs from time to time and wonder why I don't listen to them more often. What a phenomenal talent. He lived and worked in Chicago for a long time, building and refurbishing violins. ... | |
| Favorite Telarc releases..... Tierney Sutton...all of her Telarc discs. The engineers really captured the immediacy and subtelty of her voice. | |
| Dylan Bootleg Number 8 I think it's fantastic. If you are listening to it as if it were a stand-alone release, then I can understand some of the hesitancy. Yet, it is worth the price simply for the opening version of Mississippi and for Red River Shore (both versions). ... | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? methinks you don't want to know, Jorge!I was listening to the new Dylan "Bootleg Series," which definitely calls for bourbon. | |
| How international is your system? That's quite a lineup, Mrjstark.... 7 countries and 4 continents. |
