| Old friend looking for acoustic folk inspired music When folk music is mentioned Kate Wolf deserves notice. She had a brief 10 year recording span due to illness and eventually death. Had she survived her talent would have emerged into the mainstream during the "folk" revival of the late 80's-early... | |
| What's happened to Taters ? Bo72 is trapped in a 3D cube that was made in China by Monitor Audio! | |
| Rega P25 with mods or new table? A properly set up spec P25 is basically on even or superior sonic terms with all Rega decks with the exception of the P7-P9-RP-8-RP10. Save your money with mods and get a used P9 or RP10 then make some minor upgrades-mat-feet-record weight ect. | |
| Internet music sellers Check out CD Japan if you want the best sounding digital. Shipping is fast and prices are fair. They also have vinyl and many miscellaneous items. | |
| Why do all audio forums on the internet seem "dead" ? I'm high on life! I thought the Sony Walkman reference was a joke! If you enjoy the audiophile hobby the many issues you mentioned...RFI-fuses-room acoustics ect. are viewed as a challenge not an obsession or chore. Enjoy the peace and harmony of ... | |
| Why do all audio forums on the internet seem "dead" ? Geoffkait- Just because your tired/worn out with "important" issues that determine sound quality is irrelevant. Unless your trying to be funny, many of us enjoy the journey regardless of the cost or mistakes! Your post reminds me to blast "School'... | |
| When rap came out 30 years ago I thought it was just a fad Calvinj-First of all i’m not bashing hip-hop music, put down the anger pills and listen. My point was 99% of ALL recorded music does not meet my standards regardless of genre. IMO hip-hop has a much smaller sample of recordings that meet my standa... | |
| When rap came out 30 years ago I thought it was just a fad Jetrexpro-"It's a young persons world". Advertisers and the arts media believe that because the ignorant/young can be easily persuaded in purchasing anything regardless of artistic value. Calvinj-Your obsession with audiophiles not embracing rap-h... | |
| Vinyl sales My issue with new vinyl is almost all recordings are inferior to the original pressings. Why? I assume the technology is there to exceed or at least match the first pressings. | |
| Amps which are Great, but either Unknown or Underpriced Jungson JA-50/100/200. Liberty Audio B2B-100. | |
| Now Keith Emerson is gone... Keith Emerson/ELP opened the door for many of us to have an appreciation/interest for classical music. My first ELP purchase was Pictures at an Exhibition on CD which was also my first CD purchase that was recommended by an older audiophile. By th... | |
| Your picks of mediocre or lousy vocals with great musicians! Czarivey-Spot on! Patricia Barber is best used for audio demos not listening pleasure! | |
| Your picks of mediocre or lousy vocals with great musicians! Pat Benatar poor vocally? You might want to schedule a hearing test! The definitive answer eludes me but David Bowie had a voice that makes me nauseous. Not sure how talented his band(s)(studio musicians) were but they had to have much more talent... | |
| Jazz for late night relaxation Ann Burton-Blue Burton | |
| The Beach Boys Actusreus does make a valid point. To make a claim that the Beach Boys were great musicians-vocalists or lyricists would be a very biased viewpoint. I will agree the whole is greater then the sum of the parts. Since the BB were not from my generat... |
