Allman Brothers at Fillmore East, which one?
I'll try to find the Japanese pressing, but will probably purchase the new Mercury and Mofi releases...late at night when no one is watching😊Regarding vintage Japanese pressing, I have some concerns but I'll open another thread for that. 
What's your favorite lyric from a song?
Perhaps the most disturbing lyrics that I've heard lately would be"Dark the sky weapons fly / Lay them waste for your race."That's the entire poem in a 6 minute song. 
Albums you can listen too all the way through and it's all good
Any Steven Wilson album. All are well produced with incredible base. 
You can only take 5 albums to a deserted Island...

Schiit Yggdrasil or Simaudio Supernova
Which other multi bit days should I be considering, keeping the price close to the Yggdrasil? 
Schiit Yggdrasil or Simaudio Supernova
Thanks guys. I contacted Schiit, asked if they would compare the two machines or at least characterize the sound of the Yggy but they politely declined. I'll probably order the Yggy in the next few weeks, not much risk with schiit's 2 week home tr... 
REL505 vs SVS 2xSB13 or 1 x PB13
Jafant, there is really nothing about the REL that I dislike, in fact for music it's really good. It will literally rattle the eyes on certain tracks. For LFE in my large listening room I think it may be marginal at best. So I think what I may do ... 
REL505 vs SVS 2xSB13 or 1 x PB13
Thanks BDP I'll check out the Rythmik site.I think what I may try is to continue with the REL to augment the lower frequencies of my PSB mains, using the high level speaker connection but no LFE connect. Then use the new sub, such as SVS SB13 for ... 
Primaluna DiaLogue Premium preamp
I've been intrigued by PL for a while now, and especially by the Dialogue preamp. My current preamp is a ARC LS27, how would the Dialogue compare to it, any opinions? I'll have to find a local dealer.My system consists of VPI Classic 3, Ortofon Ca... 
Audio Note IQIII with VPI Classic 2
My advise is to purchase the Classic 3 instead of the 2, then install your Audio Note IQiii, it will work fine. Eventually you may want to invest in a MC cartidge and a tubed phono preamp. But for now your IQiii and Simaudio phonostage will work j... 
Classe move to China
Trelja - Initiating this thread has opened up a fire hose of opinion and emotion. Wow!Classe built their reputation by designing and manufacturing in Canada. Now some outsider CEO wants to improve profitability and moves manufacturing to China. Ap... 
Classe move to China
Mceljo - I don't assume Classe will be junk just because they manufacture in China - but now I can't assume that their quality will be superior either - because they have just moved to China and there will be a huge learning curve that may effect ... 
Classe move to China
In addition to my concerns about quality and brand value, I was also pleased to find a product made in my hometown that sounded so good. So I have to decide if I'm willing to risk quality and value and live with the minor disappointment that anoth... 
Classe's New CP-800 Pre-amp/DAC. Impressions?
12Volt,I believe that Classe has moved production to China - was your 800 built in China or Canada?I've placed an order for 2 CA-M300 monoblocks, but after learning they may be made in China I put the order on hold.How is the build quality? Any is... 
subs for Sonus Faber Cremona M floor standing
Okay - just back from the Velodyne website where I found the Optimum 12. The Optimum 12 is a bit more than half the price of the DD12 plus - so what would I give up if I go with the Optimum 12 over the DD12? And is there any experience with the Op...
