| Is There Big Trouble Brewing? That's why live music is so profound; it can defy the recording industry by definition. | |
| Digital Amps? Marketing Hype? Eldartford: I'm not talking about ss amps that are supposed to sound "like" tube amps. Rather, I'm talking about *one* digital amp that can, at the flip of a switch, sound like *many* different kinds of amps. You want that sharp Krell sound? No pr... | |
| Digital Amps? Marketing Hype? Right now, digital guitar "modeling" amps are all the rage. Even That old tube stalwart Fender has a line of these digital amps. The idea is to process analog sound through chips so that you can get a "model" of any type of sound you want. Thus, y... | |
| Who are the Jazz Cats on Audiogon? Really? There's only about 30 jazz cats? Come on, y'all, sound off! Jazz is America's classical music, and it must be supported as such! | |
| Cheap--I mean really cheap--2 Channel Starter sys? All: My question is perhaps more technical than economic. I just wanna know how you hook stuff up. Do you plug the tv into the integrated amp? Stuff like that. For fun, I'm even thinking about using an Antique Sound Lab SET integrated amp! Thanks. | |
| Who are the Jazz Cats on Audiogon? Hey, fellas, I'm enjoying this thread. To me, this is what our hobby is really about--the music! | |
| Who are the Jazz Cats on Audiogon? Clueless: Yeah, you're probably right about my handle. Actually, I see a very strong relationship between straight-ahead jazz and, say, Texas-style blues. But, I also have to agree with Marakanets; styles are really details. Music is basically 3 t... | |

| Good SET Tube Amp for $1500? Jax2: You're a DAWG, man! That's a compliment, you know! I'm the same way; I like bottom feeding--not that there's anything wrong with that ^_^. | |
| Power cable for P600 Acoustic Zen Tsunamic MK-1 does a very nice job. BLACK background. Bargain, too. Works for me! | |
| Good SET Tube Amp for $1500? Roger and Jax: I don't think that the Soliloquy's (90 db)are quite efficient enough for the 2a3s. The factory claims power handling of 8-300 watts (quite a range), but I think that they'd be a little thin with only 2 or 3 watts pushing them, and a... | |

| UPS & Small Claims Court? I recently had a problem with fedex; they booted around a '74 gibson les paul guitar pretty good, and the finish on the top cracked. As a matter of course, they denied the initial claim due to "inadequate packaging" (there's little doubt that this... | |
| How long is too long to wait for shipping? If it's a private-party transanction in which the buyer sends a monoy order or paypal, the seller really should ship within 5 business days. I mean, why the hold up? You know you were going to sale the thing; get it ready to go!--or at least menti... |
