| What Meatloaf and Beer Have Taught me about Audiophiles @erik_squires you have out done yourself. If I recall correctly on my first post you were the only one who found something nice to say and I’ve always been interested in what you have to say since. This is a seriously well written and thought prov... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? @billstevenson - I had a cat with excellent musical tastes as well. He’d get pissed if I turned it up too loud but he loved to jam if the volume was reasonable. He was also a critic of my feeble guitar playing and could always tell if my guitar wa... | |
| Upcoming Concerts?! Thanks @mofimadness. We typically see the Junkies 5-10 times per year if at all possible. They’re shows are always great. Also was interested in your Red Rocks post - our son just started grad school at CO School of Mines so hoping to catch my f... | |
| Best Audiophile Album in terms of Dynamic Range and Mastering Quality? Interesting list - reminded me of a few albums I need to listen to and a few that will never grace my rig no matter how good they are recorded. I am stunned that no Grateful Dead albums were on the list (unless I missed them). Both American Be... | |
| Upcoming Concerts?! Cowboy Junkies April 9 & 10 at the Birchmere in Alexandria, VA. | |
| What happened to Mytek? I got an email from them on Xmas eve. I know they had an issue with a fabricator reselling used Mytek equipment without Mytek’s knowledge a couple years ago. They then had to re-establish their fabrication capability, etc. Seemed to be a pretty p... | |
| Front Row Seat Power Cord? @thecarpathian +1. LOL. | |
| Does anyone on AG truly care anymore about objectivity & sincerity of Magazine reviews? +1 @terry9 @moonwatcher - you clearly have no idea how the scientific process works and all the checks and balances within the system to ensure junk science that only enriches the authors isn’t published. To compare that to the process for publ... | |
| Steve Morse pays tribute to Jeff beck Thanks @stuartk. Great way to start the morning. | |
| The Museum vs. Galleries Interesting question. Typically when I am “listening” to music I play something familiar - playlists or albums though sometimes the albums are from artists I know well but may not be familiar with that particular album. But for long sessions that ... | |
| Audioquest DBS - What Voltage? Good reminder I need to check the batteries in mine and then maybe experiment a little. | |
| Is Recording quality the real culprit? @immatthewj - that’s exactly where my mind went when @curiousjim mentioned single mic recordings. The Junkies also cut their third album as a single mic recording in a church (like Trinity Sessions) called Sharon. However the record execs didn’t ... | |
| Would you move to a bigger house if you could just to have a better listening room ? @noromance - thank you but it was also a bit selfish. We were fortunate enough to be in a position to make it happen. I had planned to retire but will now have to work a little longer - fortunately I love my job. | |
| Would you move to a bigger house if you could just to have a better listening room ? I’m with @hifiguy42 - don’t need to be sequestered to a life alone. We still live in the same 1700 ft2 house on 1 acre we bought in 1992. We did however buy the 10 wooded acres directly behind our house last year rather than listen to construction... | |
| Best Covers Sweet Jane - Cowboy Junkies Powderfinger - Cowboy Junkies To Live is to Fly - Cowboy Junkies If you can’t tell by now, I’m a Cowboy Junkies Junky. Just got tickets to 4 more April CJ shows this week - can’t wait to hit the road. Matt |
