| What Is The Most Romantic Song That You Have Ever Listen To? If you don't mind no words but just music, then try Beauty of Love by Shardad. It is a very compelling cd especially "Connies Butterfly" | |
| CHALLENGE: Best speakers for playing 1812 Overture by Eric Kunzel with real CANON at 92+dB I have both the cd and vinyl. the vinyl is hard on the cart and tonearm as it will jump out of the groove during the canon shots. | |

| Ready, set, comment! Speaker cables don’t make a difference? I tried to watch the video but after a few minutes it was just stuff I did not understand or really care about so I stopped and put on Art Pepper and that is something I understand. Art coming through my modestly priced speaker cables....! | |

| Worst Concerts You Have Attended ?? Worst: Steppenwolf. It was ear bleeding loud and you could not tell what was playing. Best: Leo Kotke who just sat on stage with his 12 string and played like it was him and several others. Opening act was Laura Branigan by herself at a piano. Bo... | |
| to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner) When I decided to get back into vinyl a year ago, I first wanted to get a cleaning machine. There are so many to choose from I almost went crazy researching. I finally decided on the ProJect VC-E. It had only one issue and that was the vacuum exit... | |
