| Review: Argent Room Lens - Ric Cummins Cables Speaker cable Oahuan,I have been wanting to try these, but the spades are too small to fit my speakers' posts. You speculated that they cannot be reterminated. Is there some way I could verify this?Or, how would one contact Ric to find out more? | |
| Mozart,Haydn,Beethoven String Quartets...... I must agree: Guarneri Qt. is also great for Beethoven. I have some of their LPs, but not the CDs. | |
| Mozart,Haydn,Beethoven String Quartets...... I heartedly second Swklein's recommendation of recordings by the Mosaiques Quartet. Their Haydn is excellent, as are the recordings by the Kodály Quartet on Naxos.My recommendations:HAYDNString Quartets Op. 76, Nos. 1-6Kodály Quartet (Naxos)Mosa... | |
| Most underated albums...... Are these "under-rated" (which assumes widely known, but largely panned) or "under-appreciated?"Whatever, I'm throwing the following into the mix:Richard Thompson: "Henry The Human Fly"Procol Harum: "A Salty Dog"Joni Mitchell: "Hejira"anything by ... | |
| Power Cords - Pixie Dust? Brucegel,How long did it take to burn in Ernie's PC? Nice about the bass extension (although my Plinius-Cabasse combination has gobs of it already). What are your impressions about the top end? | |
| Dylan SACD-good news. Me, too, Pardales!! I have one LP collection, another of CDs, and a third of boots which is a mixture of CD and LP. Oh, and another one of books! Geeesh...they sound good enough to me as it is. I would MUCH rather see SME issue all the backlog of ... | |
| Review: Plinius 8200 Amplifier The HT was supposedly already burned in, but I don't know for how long (probably fewer than 40 hr). I will try to give it more time and do as you suggest. Thanks a lot for your other suggestions via e-mail! | |
| New Scout & MH MM-7 or old Linn Sondek. ????? If your Linn is set up properly, Babyz, I doubt you will regret the purchase. | |
| Flipping the LP over ... Bwhite,I don't have any of those 200gm (or 180gm) LPs. If I did, I guess I'd be extra careful, too! They ain't cheap! | |
| Nick Cave fans? tweakgeek,no, have not seen that video. Where can I get a copy? And did they record anything together? | |
| Review: Plinius 8200 Amplifier Sherod,Great! Thanks for the recommendation! I have been trying out an HT ProAc 11 that is $379. I can definitely hear an improvement over the stock PC, but not $379 worth. So, a less expensive AZ sounds like the ticket. | |
| Review: Plinius 8200 Amplifier Thanks, Drubin, for your comments and suggestion to update my impressions after continued listening. I'll say something about that in a moment, but first I'm wondering what YOUR impressions are after some listening?It's only been 10 days since I p... | |
| Where have all the protest songs gone? Dylan is still singing his protest songs. Some people ask why he's not writing more of them. Well, why should he? The ones he wrote decades ago are still relevant and he still sings them (2 or 3 at each concert). And "Lonesome Day Blues" from 'Lov... | |
| Linn LP12 Black Felt Mat How do you keep it on ? My felt mat has NEVER come off! And I live in the dry arid winters of Chicago. This is the first I've heard of it. I leave the platter running while I change LPs and even that doesn't generate enough static to cause the mat to stick to the LPs.Her... | |
| Dylan SACD-good news. And maybe SME will finally release all those other Dylan goodies lying around in their vaults! |
