| Transparent vs Synergistic Research? For what is worth Transparent are consistent in their "levels" of cables and simply update the generation. I run Transparent Ultra Generation 6 analogs for Interconnects and speaker runs. Love the the stuff. When I went from Super Gen 5 to Ultra ... | |
| Best live album you've ever heard? Genesis - Second's Out and Three Sides Live Over the years I tended to like the live versions of most of the songs until they started to have to step the pitch down as Phil got older. Also there was an introduction of some off vocal effects. But... | |

| 2022 Audio System Wish List and thoughts about streaming I am fairly all in on my Linn LP12 and just need to add the Keel sub chases and Kandid cartridge to bring it all the way up.
