| Middle Eastern, North African music these days? Water Lily did an LP of Hamza el Din is that very much worth having if you can find it.An interesting group to check out is Tinariwen, who are Taureg nomads/freedom fighters. It's bluesy and electric but decidedly different from most anything else... | |
| Lobos/Clapton Show - mini-review Los Lobos, who I love, usually sound overly thick to me. Except for a mostly acoustic night I saw a few years ago.Great review, Martyk1. | |
| Lyra Dorian or Lyra Delos cartridge? This may be an inappropriate question, but...is it possible to get new cartridges (Lyra and others) at a discount? If so, from whom? | |
| Review: Technics SL-1200Mk2 Turntable Great report, Alex! | |
| Has anyone switched from Dynaudio to Harbeth I switched from Harbeth to Dynaudio, but I could see going the other way, too. | |
| what speakers demand high end electronics Of all the speakers I have owned, I feel that Harbeths were the least fussy when it came to amplifier pairing. (Another way of saying this: Harbeths are less transparent to the source than other speakers I have owned.) So perhaps there is some tru... | |
| How do Dunlavys compared to new stuff? They focus on frequency response, extension at both ends and don't really serve the music.How's that? | |

| How do Dunlavys compared to new stuff? I purchased new old stock SC-III.A's about a year ago, replacing Dynaudio Confidence C1. I had never heard this model but I did hear the Aletha at CES several years ago and I've never forgotten that experience. The III.A is the last iteration of t... | |
| conundrum Maybe the dealer's room is poor. Or there was something wrong with his setup. Regardless, can you get a loan or either or both pairs of speakers and do an in-home audition? That's really the only way you'll be able to answer your question satisfac... | |
| Flat Screen Recommendations: 50 to 60 inch I watched the Superbowl on a friend's Samsung LED backlit LCD set. It was excellent for the game, but we then watched Glee and the picture was just plain weird and, I think, wrong. It had that videotape quality that the soap operas have, or used t... | |
| Your Favorite, Most Outstanding Guitar Solo GD 12/31/76, Morning Dew. Jerry's playing in the instrumental coda is an otherworldly flow of ideas, one after another, just moving through him. The rest of the band somehow manages to stay with him. | |
| Magico Q3 vs wilson sophia 3 48 square meters is 517 square feet. | |
| Experience w/ 40-75 watt amps on Dunlavy IVs Not exactly, but I have found the 35wpc PrimaLuna ProLogue 5 to work with reasonable success on my SCIII.A Dunlavys. Maybe not for headbanging, however. |
