| Does your pet listen to your system? Resonance control. She knew that the empty lower shelf was vibrating like crazy 😱 and wanted to dampen it. I’ll bet she took kit from the seasoned pile. | |
| Classical music, symphony AND planar speakers Orchestral music not good with planars?! What planet does that person live on? The best rendering of a realistic orchestral soundstage “spread” and scale that I have ever achieved with the speakers that I have had in my system has been with planar... | |
| Does your pet listen to your system? .....contralto, to be exact. Very interesting question you ask about Gender Neutrality and your pet rock. Given the Chinese poetry origin of Das Lied’s text, the centuries old philosophical appreciation of rocks in Chinese culture should be pointe... | |

| Jazz for aficionados pjw, “Sonny Side Up” is one of the ten or so Jazz records I would save if my house were burning down. Love that record; amazing swing feel and really interesting contrast between the two Sonny’s. Stitt, right out of Bird‘s bebop. Rollins, looking ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Where is Rok? I hope he’s doing ok. I think he may have locked himself in his library so as to not be disturbed while he reads Giddins’ “Celebrating Bird” for the tenth time. So much to learn; so little time! Get ready, y’all, detailed analysis an... | |
