| Whats the best $1000 speakers I'll second or third the Snell suggestion. CV's are wonderful speakers in this range. Another one, a bit more vintage, would be Snell A-III's....they ran around $5K when they launched & still sound like it. | |
| Best Sounding Rhapsody in Blue Thanks for taking the time Uru...if I can't find it through your description I never will. | |
| Best Sounding Rhapsody in Blue Uru,I'm not finding your suggestion...is this it:Conductor: Dmitri KitayenkoArtist: Lincoln Mayorga pianistOrchestra: The Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra Audio CD (October 25, 1990) Format: Import Label: Sheffield Lab ASIN: B00008FRAV | |
| Best Sounding Rhapsody in Blue A suggestion that may be a bit off the wall...but I recently saw a RIB perfomance by the "5 Browns" & it was rather stunning. The Browns are five siblings that play RIB on 5 concert grands all at the same time. I can't speak for the recording ... | |
| Question for Jolida JD100 owners No problems here. Runs into a TAD150sig pre. | |

| What's better than the Jolida JD100 mrtennis,Is there an echo in here?...seems like you've said that..more than once...I think we got it... | |
| What's better than the Jolida JD100 It's hard to take a stock JD100 and ask what's better...toss in a pair of Siemens (& Halske) 12ax7's, Amperex (Heerlen)12ax7's or Raytheon 3xm 5751's and give it a good listen. Tubes make a BIG difference in this player. If the NOS tubed JD100... | |
| budget tube preamp dilema Another vote for the TAD150. I have a 150Sig and love it. It responds well to tube rolling also. | |
| Natalie Merchant's Tigerlily on LP...any good? Marco,Nothing in the background on 900 Miles other than silence. Great recording. Based on your other comments on music (I've picked up a few based on them) I'm guessing B&R maybe be a hit for you....and to get back on topic I need to check ou... | |
| Natalie Merchant's Tigerlily on LP...any good? My mind isn't what it used to be...in fact I'm not really sure it ever was what it used to be. I'll have to look for the new version. If it's close to the first version then it'll go to my short-play list.If NM & CJ works for you...have you ha... | |
| Who is your favorite jazz pianist I'm with the Ahmad Jamal suggestion..seems he's almost universally overlooked & yet he's been around for a very long time. The Essence 1 & 3 cd's are excellent. Also Jessica Williams. Great recordings too. Monk, Evans, Red Garland, all great. | |
| Natalie Merchant's Tigerlily on LP...any good? Jax,Maybe my memory is failing on the CJ trinity recording, but didn't the recording actually take pace in the hotel lobby they were staying at...the hum in the background was a window air conditioner. Still sounds near-perfect though. | |
| Excellent affordable preamps keep springing UP TAD150 SignatureNo longer made, but they are still supported & available. | |
| snell a II Vernon,Another Type A fan, good to see. Mark @ Snell is still there...I talked to him last week.I have a pair of A-I's & just yesterday picked up a pair of A-III's. You think the AII are big...I can't get over the size of the AIII's...man! I n... |
