| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? Not a problem, not to worry: I sold my old "button" sweater to Arnie, but now that he has lost a lot of weight and has started working out, he no longer requires its use. Maybe it (the sweater) and its use would chill out that Brian character. As ... | |
| Great Percussion Recordings This is not a great recording, but it is great percussive playing. "L.H. Correa de Azevedo, Music of Ceara and Minus Gerias". On the Ryco "Endangered Music Project" label. A great history piece on the music of Brazil. | |
| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? Yes, David it's a bit warm now so maybe save the Chick Magnet sweater for later on in the year. I met a great girl friend when I was in school wearing that sweater. When she was gone (moved back the CA), I put the buttons back on with the same spo... | |
| Absolute Power Cords Whose heard them Psychic: I did not receive your email if it was recently sent. This is the the second or third one that has not come through lately (that I am aware of). I will send you our direct email address, as this always seems to work. I hear you on the PC ... | |
| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? David99: Very funny and I had forgotten about the old laundromat ploy. Just make sure that you throw all the clothes (light and dark) in together on cold wash. This will get their attention more than anything else. I also used to wear a brown cart... | |
| Problem with tube preamp - any help... Perhaps a tape monitor switch, though this would not explain the low level leakage. | |
| Wadia 8 CD Transport Wadia "8" was actually a prefix code for Sacramemto, CA telephone numbers in the 1940's. | |
| Anyone heard the Toshiba EMI Pink Floyds YES, I can't help out either as I listen to the "real" Pink Floyd (AKA Tomita:-). | |
| Your Recommendations Please I have very little knowledge of jazz, but just listened to a CD that I have had for quite some time by Papo Vazquez and other than having great players, it seems to be what you are looking for. The CD is entitled "At the Point V. Two". | |
| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? I always tell the truth and either get an approval or not. I did however tell my wife that "our" Bel Canto DAC was a computer for the stereo (which it really is, but this does somehow "glorify" it a bit). To this day she introduces new visitors, t... | |
| How Do You Clean Your CD's? I told her to use Dove, but she just wouldn't listen to me. | |
| UNBELEIVABLY BAD SERVICE - ELECTRAGLIDE Agreed. Time to end this thread, all is well that ends well. | |
| CD player or DAC ?? Yes, find a used CAL Icon MKII ($400ish) or the MKII with the HDCD Power BOSS upgrade ($600ish) in top condition and save the rest of your money. They are older, but better sounding players, IMO, (though I have not listened to the new 2000, just t... | |
| Tube pre sspwramp vs sspre tubepwr Jtinn: I had good luck with this combo as well. This was older gear and the SS preamp introduced less noise to the tube amp than the tube preamp did. It would player louder and cleaner. | |
| How Do You Clean Your CD's? I use static control cloths from the place where we purchase our eyeglasses. They either come with my glasses or are free when I stop by. When I pick up a used CD that looks like a pizza pie, I clean it with hi-grade electrician's alcohol. |
