Great albums that don't make audiophile lists
Toots always makes my list. Maybe I'm not an audiophile because I love everything ive ever heard from that man including the theme to Sesame Street. 
Storm Sandy - best wishes
I live up in Rochester NY which is a good 4 1/2 - 5 hours from the coast and they're even telling is to prepare for wide spread power outages and heavy rains with flooding. This storm is huge. I bought one of the last generators at Lowes. If I los... 
Admiral Television?
You know, I never expected it to be what it turned out to be but I guess it didn't surprise me. When my wife forwarded the information I actually said "get out" aloud at my office. I'm thinking about hunting down that book about Todd now that this... 
Audioquest Dragonfly
How about Decibel? Ive read some good things. 
Admiral Television?
Sorry about that. I think the news has gotten the best of me lately. It has taken over my brain (whats left of it). I have nightmares about politicians. I was mowing the lawn after that post and was asking myself if I typed Paul Ryan. 
Admiral Television?
Marty. I guess this guy my wife works with is friends with Paul Ryan who authored a book on Todd Rungren. He told my wife theres a whole chapter on War Babies. It must be interesting if there's a whole chapter on it. 
In-ear Headphone Advice Requested
Etymotic 4. Read some of the reviews and see if they sound like something you'd be into. 
Admiral Television?
Oh, and Todd's wife said that your guess of Rick Derringer was a good one because he and Todd have always been such good friends. 
Admiral Television?
Okay, so he texted Todd's wife. She said that it is actually a television. She told him that there's a lot of funky things they put on the War Babies album cover and they even quoted people that didn't exist. This answer is coming from Todd Rundgr... 
Thinking of Bireli...
Marakanetz. You've got to check out the You Tube of Isn't She Lovely. Its just special. I had to play it three times to believe it was as good as it is. Amazing. 
Thinking of Bireli...
You just did me justice. I just listened to Silvain Luc and Bireli playing Stevie Wonders 'isn't she lovely ' on You Tube and it rocked my world. Thanks for helping me sk nd my money because that was amazingly intimate and beautiful and ive never ... 
RMAF 2012 Postmortem
And please don't think I'm some authority. Ive just been following some.poor ethics on this forum lately and it doesn't do any of us any good. If you want to settle a dispute that has nothing to do with an Audiogon transaction I think you need to ... 
RMAF 2012 Postmortem
Petrakis. Have you followed Jp1208's threads? Don't let this person sway your opinion. I'm sorry Jp but ive been following your interaction with Vapor and its less than professional on both sides. I personally wish you would stop your rant with Va... 
Admiral Television?
Im such an idiot. I have an in. My wife works with a guy who knows Todd Rundgren. Actually my wife works with two guys in their early 50's who travel to most of Todd's shows and know him very well. Ill keep you posted. 
Harbeth Comparison
Another popular combination on this side of the pond is Harbeth/Rogue Cronus or Cronus Magnum. Popular with me but also displayed at last years Montreal show. Ive been on the HUG and found a few more people with the combo. That being said your gea...
