| Affordable integrated amps with HT bypass? What Dtc said about the Rotel and B&W combo was my direct experience. I would lose the Rotel. I would definitely check out the Nait. I found the Marantz gear that I listened to lost a little of the top end. As you age that's not good. It might... | |
| KEF LS 50 in NE Ohio? Excellent near field monitor. I listened to a friends pair with the Parasound A21 (can't recall source and pre) and enjoyed it very much. Just find a used pair on here and keep what you have. That's the best of both worlds. | |
| How to protect turntable from children? I like that idea that Rhljazz has. When I was that age, I had one of those little briefcase tables that I spun my Alvin and the Chipmunks record on. Amazon has a bunch of them with built in speakers for under $100 and as low as $47. | |
| Norah Jones Toddnkaya, yes I've heard Little Broken Hearts and I think it's great. I heard her play the tunes Say Goodbye and Happy Pills on this live show on PBS and thought it was fantastic.I believe that all the songs on the album Not Too Late were written... | |
| Why is Dynaudio so much cheaper in Europe? There's no simple answer to your question other than its a large item to ship and its a fragile item to ship. That costs tons of money. Each item is insured by the manufacturer.It's not like a tooth brush made in China where you can dump tons of t... | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? Byfwyyne, that's not uncommon at all. These people that set up speakers in this manner have a particular training. The difference is huge. Some dealers pay for outside sources to do this. | |
| When did you start to love music and why? I'm a blizzard baby (accident). Blizzard of '66 to be exact. My siblings are quite a bit older than me. My brothers and sisters have seen Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix live as well as early The Who and others. Every one of my siblings had a hifi o... | |
| Linda Ronstadt can't sing anymore. Oh no. I love Linda. An amazing talent and cute as a button. This is some very sad news. | |
| Norah Jones Okay, so first off her father didn't have a lot of pull with Norah. It was Annoushka he catered to. Chayro, isn't "Come Away With Me" over a decade old? Give her a chance for crying out loud. She's not an amplifier. Why bother replying on artists ... | |
| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? I've posted more than a few times on this thread. My wife LOVES listening to music. Ever since I've known her. Some nights when i come home from the office late, i can hear the Cassandra Wilson (or whoever) when im pulling up the driveway. She mig... | |
| What time do you wear? Yes, I hope to someday step up from a quartz movement. I really enjoy wearing a watch. It's not uncomfortable to me and I don't like to have to pull a cell phone out of my pocket to say "it's four fifty three". I can totally understand why people ... | |
| Possible Desktop Speakers? Do you have any local brick and mortar hifi shops in your area? It sounds like you're trying to spend a boat load of money without ever listening to anything. You need to get out there and spend some time listening to some stuff. You're totally se... | |
| What time do you wear? "An iPhone! I wear it like a pocket watch. I have not had a time piece on my wrist for years. Wrist Watches are just BLING!"Do you remember a time before digital time pieces? It was great. When asked the time it was always rounded. 5:08 was ten af... | |
| Norah Jones "She hardly wrote any of the music she sang to get famous. Mostly all covers. When she started insisting on performing the stuff she wrote, her career sank fast. I happen to like her first two records, but I can't stand her writing. "Well there's ... | |
| Songs With Best Ending LMAO!!!! My favorite part of a Cher album is the groove cut in the vinyl between songs. |
