Exercise music Michael: I am currently involved in a pain management program that includes "self" physical therapy excercises at home as well as bio feedback exercises. This may twist my views somewhat, but maybe not - read on. My only experience with recreation... | |
"Burn In" Question I have burned in cables using the VCR. You do not have to turn the volume up on your amp for it to work. I also leave my class a/b solid state equipment on 24 hours a day as well as my CD player. Otherwise it takes along time (at least a couple of... | |
REmastered classic CD's I have been buying classical CD's for $2.99 at a local closeout chain called Pic n' Save. They are 20 bit digital recordings mastered via 32 bit sound processing. Most are done in England and are performed by the Danish Royal Orchestra. They are d... | |
Exercise music Hi Michael: Here are two more specific suggestions. The soundtrack from "Breakfast at Tiffany's", music by Henry Mancini which is on RCA/BMG. Also the soundtrack to "Black Orpheus" which is also available from BMG club, or can be ordered at most s... | |
Exercise music Anything Disco of course and Funkadelic like "Hot Chocolate - You Sexy Thing". Muzak is also fun when you "crank" it. | |
digital and interconnect cables burn in Radiomanjh: I just researched this type of break in process and was told by my interconnect manufacturer that the power amplifer is not needed for for break in to occur. You can run them from any source (even a VCR) into a preamp and this will all... | |
Old McIntosh speaker posts No new ideas. I use bare wire connections because they sound better on my Kimber Kables. It's the easiest solution in your case depending on your speaker cables. I asked a knowledgeable gentleman at my local shop (where I purchased the Kimber) why... | |
Best of value-based systems Meant Dunlavy not Duntech above. Also Coincident speakers. | |
wow, a newbie power cord convert Eldragon - I upgraded the stock cord on a CAL Icon MKII with the Harmonic Tech. Pro II cord and there was nothing but improvent in the sound. It became more dynamic with single notes coming out of a darker background. This was immediately noticabl... | |
Best of value-based systems Hi Exley. It's always good to hear a "like" opinion on a product. The funny thing about these little boxes is that they really kill on classical music, it's what they do incredibly well. The problem that we have been having is with some popular mu... | |
Best of value-based systems Hi SD. I am new to this forum, Sluggo also ticked me off a while back. I got over it and have to admit that I find his slash and burn posts pretty funny most of the time. I am also a die hard potlicker whether it be the purchase of a car, a bottle... | |
Best of value-based systems So much for music taming the savage breast. | |
POLK AUDIO LS90 Hi Danz: These speakers are discontinued as you probably know. They were still selling them at a California chain called Circut City about a year ago, but they are most likely all gone by now. You can read reviews on them at audioreview.com if you... | |
My wife is so uncool! Tml2 - Your advice worked. My wife is losing some of her fear of the new stereo and is using it on her own when I am out - getting involved. A couple of days ago she mentioned that some of her CD's sounded kind of "tinny". I asked her to play some... | |
Tired of same ol' CD'd... Here are some great oddball CD's. Paul Winter and Friends "Celtic Solstice", 1999 Earth Music Productions, is recorded at St. Johns Cathedral NY with bagpipes and everything. "Kepa Junkera Bilbao" is available at Alula.com and is a double CD of Ba... |
