worse entertainer or performer of all time??
Tubegroover-Many of us on Agon agree that Whitney Houston's music sucked! Her younger voice was techincally fine but IMO lacked heart and emotion, almost like she was singing in a drug induced coma. Screaming r&b divas are not my favorite genr...

Jay Z-The wool he is pulling over his fans eyes must be a very thick gauge!

Bo1972-Great Post!-Dragon vibe-Hope the Legacy speakers meet your needs. 
suggest an under $2000 amp to match 4ohm speakers
Paanders-Many of us know and have heard the synergy between Primare and Vienna Acoustics. I would strongly consider the I31 intergrated amp, depending on condition expect to pay $1200-$1500. I have heard Prima Luna with very good results on VA spe... 
Which amp for my Renaissance 90s?
My hunch is a conrad-johnson Premier 350. Several years ago I heard a c-j 350 driving an Infinity IRS Omega. This pairing was reference level. I don't remember the cables or digital source but i'm sure the c-j was very influential. Both the IRS Om...

Elac Loudspeakers?
Kclone-This would be a near future but not an immediate purchase. Hope to visit the Toronto area before years end and listen to various Amphion-Elac-Focus Audio-Marten and Gershman Acoustic speakers. 
Sleeper Debut Lps...70s classic rock
Head East-Flat as a Pancake(1974)-Never Been Any Reason is reason enough. Ted Nugent-Ted Nugent(1975)-Ted has made many lousy over the top recordings but this could be his best work.Molly Hatchet-Molly Hatchet(1978)-Put aside the rebel flag imager... 
Best Metal Vinyl Album
After playing Metallica-And Justice For All I realize what a great recording this is! I bought the album the day it came out in 1988 so it's a very early pressing. I don't know if later pressings are at this near reference level.
