| Favorite poorly-recorded albums Gerry Rafferty-Night Owl-Soundstage is flat as a pancake with limited bass response. | |
| Rega, Music Hall or VPI Shimanole,I suggested the Thornes and Dual due to better build quality over the Rega RP-1. Never been of fan of Rega tables they have an unfinished look and feel. The P3 has always sounded thin and hollow, lacking body, weight and warmth. The Musi... | |
| Rega, Music Hall or VPI Remember reviews are more about entertainment then help. A used VPI is the clear choice of the turntables mentioned. Have you considered a new entry level Thorens or Dual table? On the low end consider a used Denon DP-500 for $300-$400. Add the ic... | |
| Need Blues Rec--burn the house down guitar stuff Recently listened to The Joe Perry Project-Let the Music do the Talking. This is a great guitar album!!! Many are familiar with the great title track, but Rockin' Train and The Mist is Rising are also equal to the best Aerosmith tracks. | |

| Great films where music is a central theme. Mike's Murder-Joe Jackson/John Barry | |
| What is your favorite 1 hit wonder from the 70's? "Funky Nassau" by The Begining of the End has not been mentioned. Peaked at #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 July 1971. | |
| A "Unique" Voice... Valerie Joyce!!! | |
| McIntosh MA6300 The Mac 6300 is a solid(warm/relaxed) amp but it does not want to be pushed. Had a hard time driving a pair of ATC-SCM 11's to a satisfactory level. IMO the AVI Lab Series(S21) is the best value(non-tube)intergrated on the used market. It may be d... |
