| Whats playing on your system today? Maire Brennan-Maire(CD) An eclectic/mystical recording that blends New Age/Euro Celtic Pop. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw I always make an attempt to play at least 1 R&B recording during my 8 side listening sessions. "Variety is the spice of life". | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw Nice to see some "Top Shelf" R&B being spun! | |

| Whats playing on your system today? Katie Melua-Piece By Piece(CD) One of the standout recordings of the 2000's. A rare Thursday night(1980's) vinyl night follows. | |
| Why "bookshelf" sspeakers? @grannyring Yes, exceptions always exist. The Seawave Acoustic AM 23($20K) might exceed the Totem Element Metal V2($18.5k) but I have not heard a better allrounder for < $20k regardless of speaker size or type. In general the consumer is get... | |

| Whats playing on your system today? Saraya-ST(CD) Another great 1989 release. Easily a Top 5 Pop/Rock recording from 89. FWIW fronted(vocals) by Sandi Saraya with a mix of Pat Benatar/Kim Carnes vocals and a world-class guitar player Tony Rey that is not an EVH clone. | |

| Whats playing on your system today? Maura O'Connell-Just In Time(CD) Another great example of how strong 1989 was for recordings. Virtually unknown with the mainstream, this is easily a Top 100 recording of any genre released in 1989. | |
| Is it important to long demo or own HIGH END gear to have a fair accurate view about it? @mapman My point is room acoustic treatment is a given(must have) regardless of the cost/level of the audio system.
