Should I Repair a Plinius 8150 ?

Linda Ronstadt can't sing anymore.
Fresh Air with Terry Gross just had an interview with Linda. It was very sweet and sad at the same time. Terry asked Linda if she still enjoyed listening to music and Linda's reply was "Yes, I love live music over recorded music although that's st...

Ghosthouse, my CDP is the Audiolab 8200 CDQ. I biught this because of the reviews and the flexibility it offers me. Im staring to mess around with computer audio (slowly). Speakers are Harbeth C7es3 monitors. I'm going to be going balanced by this...

We've had that Frazey Ford since it came out. Love the Be Good Tanya's and Obadiah is indeed very good. Interesting thing about Frazey. Her parents were hippies and her father dodged the Vietnam draft by moving up to Canada from the U.S.

Age Related Hearing problems and hearing aids
Thanks for the information. These are some of the most valuable threads on this forum. I actually think it would be nice to have a hearing impaired forum because we seem to be a shrinking breed and everyone's hearing is going to go eventually. My ...

"can believe that. Harbeth's are some of the most overrated and overpriced speakers out there. Followed closely by the Spendor SP100s."Nice to hear from a troll. You just felt like puking out a snide remark because you're so happy with your life. ...

Schubert, her father never even saw her until she was 10. The guy wasn't a part of her life. She was a waitress and played piano in bars. It was her sister who was the recipient of Ravi's attention. Oddly enough, I like Anoushka's Sitar playing as...
