Allison Krauss fans, try this one. Yes! Leftover Salmon is fantastic. I saw them in the same intimate venue as the Creek (Mangy Moose Saloon - Jackson, WY). Great stuff. | |
Allison Krauss fans, try this one. Agreed, great recordings, great music. I had the pleasure of catching them live in a small, intimate venue. Very talented young trio. | |

Alon II Mark I Speaker Setup Please help Mike, at the Acarian website, there's an older review from TAS on the Alon II. Some vague placement details are mentioned, might be a good place to start. I recently acquired a pair of Alon I mkII. In my small room - 9'x13' - they ended up 54" off... | |
Sony DVP-S9000ES or Meridian 586 DVD/CD Some 9000 will play back CD-R, some won't. I think they will all play CD-RW though. | |

Passive tube stage/non-DAC device? Check out the Musical Fidelity X-10D and the Taddeo Digital Antidote I and II. Happy listening. | |
Which tubes? My amp can except El34, 6L6, KT88, an Maxgain, that's very interesting about how the Vandy's amps get their signal. Perhaps the 6L6 wouldn't be the best in this situation. They are cheap to experiment with though. I found the Golden Dragon KT88 to have as much bottom end as a Sovtek 6... |
