| Be honest please John421-If that gear(NAD/JVC) is enough for you, that's great. For most of us on Agon we value sound quality over cost. FWIW someone that frequently quotes what something costs(expensive or inexpensive} has "assclown" tattooed on the forehead! | |
| Solid State Amplifier Advancements In A Decade Mikelavigne-Thx for your insight since your opinions are by ownership NOT speculation! | |
| what speaker new or used for 5k? If you like the VA sound move up the line. If you want more resolution look at the ATC SCM 40(new/used) or you might be able to stretch your budget for a used/demo ML Montis both speakers would be hard to beat at the $5k level when set up properly. | |
| Anybody into 80s big music? Phasecorrect-Having hit records and a definite debut album has nothing to do with "getting it right" from a musical perspective. Many bands have that "definite" 1st release then start on a spiraling decline, The Call did just the opposite The Call... | |
| Free $3K preamp to lucky listener who names it Add me to the list that dislikes Rhumba. I understand the synergy with Rhythm, and being an entry level model "Rhumba" is not as serious by definition as Rhythm. FWIW my choices were... Apollo/Stratosphere/Veracity. My guess is they thought these ... | |
| Anybody into 80s big music? S1nn3r-Your list helps prove The Call is consistently overlooked! | |
| Anybody into 80s big music? David + David had one of the best(non-metal)recordings of the 80's. | |
| What is your favorite 1 hit wonder from the 70's? Martykl-Your correct! "Magic" peaked at #5 in 1975. Pilot never had another Top 40 Billboard hit. Loomisjohnson- If I was to include 1 R&B song(in my Top 10) "Be Thankful" would be at the top of my list(the LP version is killer)! | |
| Songs that trigger you to switch the station or... "Stairway To Heaven" are you sure your a music lover? "Smells Like Teen Spirit"! The silly lyrics/poor vocals-musicianship only scratch the surface(lol)! The music media "praise" is not only laughable it's downright sinful! | |
| The great Phil Woods has passed. Will find time to hear Floresta Canto this weekend to honor Mr. Phil Woods | |
| Overshadowed by bandmates 1-Floyd Snead/Three Dog Night. 2-Brad Whitford/Aerosmith. 3-Roger Glover/Deep Purple. 4-Alex Lifeson/Rush. 5-Cedar Walton/Various. 6-Marty Balin/Jefferson(Airplane-Starship). 7-Maury Muehleisen/Jim Croce. 8-Jack Bruce/Cream. 9-Robby Krieger/The Do... | |
| What is your favorite 1 hit wonder from the 70's? Roxy54-Not a problem, appreciate your input! | |
| What is your favorite 1 hit wonder from the 70's? Donnie Iris-"Leah" peaked at #29(Billboard) in 1980. "Love is Like a Rock" hit #37 in 1981. Dobie Grey had a 1965 #13 hit "The In-Crowd" and another Top 40 song "You Can Do It" in 1979. FWIW- "Black Betty" does qualify as a true 1970's 1-hit wonder. | |
| It Was 40 Years Ago Today... Bdp24-Great post. I would like to add and simplify, regarding your comments. Dylan and the Beatles created/influenced the singer songwriter genre. The Kinks/Steppenwolf/Blue Cheer helped create "arena rock". The Who/The Doors/The Animals/Pink Floy... | |
| What is your favorite 1 hit wonder from the 70's? "Drift Away" and "Black Betty" are good choices but(IMO) don't enter my top ten. Gerry Rafferty had a mega #2 Billboard hit "Baker Street" in case you forgot? "Feelings" not a bad choice(don't like song)but have no problem with it being a top ten ... |
