"RUSH" Vinyl remasters vs CD --Sound differences...OPINIONS?
billspecfoc,Can you clarify what "BR" means please? 
Shunyata or Synergistic for power conditioning?
Have you taken a look at the Equi=Tech product?  
What do you listen to when no one else can hear it
This thread is hilarious. Someone mentioned Best of Bread. Oh no, not that! Major cringe factor there. I used to have that on cassette when I was a kid. Is that the only album they ever did? ;-)  Also, Klaatu, Calling Occupants.....that's hilariou... 
Diana Krall
+2 for the Live in Paris release. I have a couple of Diana Krall CD's. I find the studio release......ok but the live CD is great in my opinion. I have also seen her live and very much enjoyed the show. 
Which Budget Speakers, Tekton or Omega?
Buy these and use the savings to get new grill covers. They will do your rock proud and not be annoying on the top end.https://www.audiogon.com/listings/full-range-legacy-audio-signature-iii-2018-01-18-speakers-80301-bo... 
Anyone hear Robert Plant's new release, Carry Fire?
As I understand it they used multiple tracks for the vocals. I wonder if that's what is contributing to the poor mix. Not sure what they did on the instrumentals but as I stated, I really like the music but certainly don't care for how it was laid... 
Room color opinions

Why do many discussions about sonic performance disintegrate into technical discusions?
Gee, and all I'm trying to do is learn about the science behind the Synergistic blue fuse which uses Quantum Inductive Coupling.  Can anyone explain that to me in a non-technical manner? 
What is really the purpose of streaming??
What I like about streaming is as many here have mentioned, the access to literally millions of albums. I like to read through the music forum here and get ideas for new music. For example, one band that seems  popular from the classic rock era, t... 
Which Patricia Barber album floats yer boat?
Umm, I find the comments on this thread very interesting although I admit I haven't read them all. Perhaps I'll just be the quiet voice from the back of the room that has to say something, because I feel that Patricia Barber is one of the most tal... 
This is for Georgehifi especially but others can chime in.
I always get a kick out of this (and no offense to mapman mind you) "I would be looking at something like Bel Canto ref600m amps for top notch sound, bang for the buck, manageable size, and low power consumption/electric bills". So we spend lit... 
How does one (grow) as a music listener/lover?
I would also suggest checking out Echoes hosted by John Diliberto.https://echoes.org/ 
How does one (grow) as a music listener/lover?
This is fun. I have learned a lot about new/different music just perusing the music section of the forum here. Obviously with suggestions coming from fellow audio enthusiasts it has led to some interesting discoveries.
