| Some tables have soul and some not Geoch, "Bustelo" Espresso roast, but drip~brewed. Fantastic and inexpensive brew. Try it. :-) | |
| Some tables have soul and some not **** Classical music has no soul ****I share Learsfool's amazement that someone would make such a statement. One may not like one particular genre or another, but to believe something like that is, to me, a sign of a lack of openness at all that m... | |
| Some tables have soul and some not ****TT's and cartridges are "voiced" for different genre's of music, but perhaps only the most astute audiophiles are aware of this; which makes the fact why you are so "unaware" that much more apparent.**** -Orpheus10I am curious about how you ar... | |
| Which is more accurate: digital or vinyl? Almarg and Terry9, thank you for a fabulous exchange; extremely informative and a model of civility. Very impressive. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Philcoffino, a couple of things to check.- Make sure the ARM is level, not just the platter. I will bet you an I-beam that your arm (spindle/housing) is not level, and is slightly higher in the rear. Even if a bubble level tells you that it is, tr... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Ct, glad it worked out; I had a strong suspicion that you would like the result. Maybe not a silver bullet, but a significant way of optimizing cartridge performance and system tuning. Again, issues of ultimate technical performance aside (trackin... | |

| Do you believe in Magic? **** Knowledge is not an absolute and continues to evolve.**** - GeoffkaitExactly! Very interesting exchanges here. Thanks Bryon, and I commend your open-mindedness. As you stated, discussions such as these often point to a basic dividing line amo... | |
| Double blind test on Strads An interesting followup by a leading violinist to this "experiment":me-with-science/>http://www.insidethearts.com/nondivisi/they-blinded-me-with-science/ | |
| Street musicians Lecture? Not at all; no interest in that. Obvious? Apparently not, based on your "truest artists" comment. Anyway, my intention was not to offend; simply engage.So ok, I'll play: I've heard these guys a few times at midtown subway stations, and th... | |
| Street musicians While it is true that some greats spent time playing in the streets for a few coins, it is also true that non-musicians sometimes over-romanticize the notion of the starving musician. There is no question that there are talented musicians that hav... | |
