| "Krell" is a buzzword Yep, Tswhitsel, I do respect Trelja's posts (and threads), and I may have come across as a bit defensive toward you-- sorry-- hope you will post more, and maybe even on the thread "Who Are U". You seem to have a thoughtful and articulate style of ... | |
| "Krell" is a buzzword Audiogon chat forum is for chatting about audio related "stuff"-- not for listening to music or discussing apes, IMO. I own no Krell equipment, but considerd their FPB 200 before buying McCormack DNA-2DX. Krell is certainly a successful well respe... | |
| "Krell" is a buzzword This thread may be like feeding sharks, but Trelja is right. What other brand name invokes this kind of spirited debate? (well, except Bose). And why? What's unique about Krell? It seems to me that's worth talking about. No? Why doesn't ARC, Class... | |
| "Krell" is a buzzword Hi Tswhitsel; Other than to complain about a well respected Audiogon member, what is the point of YOUR post? IMO, Trelja is one of the most knowledgeable and respected regular posters on Audiogon. I especially value his opinions and advice on tube... | |
| Cowboy Junkies fans........ Glad to hear from so many 'Junkies fans. I think I saw on their website, or maybe via their Junkmail (I'm on their email list), that the band is working on a new studio album to be released spring/summer-- looking forward to it. Happy Holidays. Craig | |
| WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor)and Speakers Vandersteen uses grill cloth that they call "sonically transparent"-- this is essential to Vand. as they use a "boxless" design and have the cloth on all four sides, and it's not removeable. The point being that the cloth they use is carefully cho... | |
| Best reviewers Yep, I missed Robert Harley in my above post-- he's good, especially for digital. And I miss Corey Greenberg from when he was with Stereophile-- they gave him "room" to be himself. HP is WAAAAAAAY to long winded for me. Craig. | |
| "Burn in" Are you serious? .......yes, I realize that my above post argues for both sides of this issue. That's part of my point. Craig | |
| "Burn in" Are you serious? Robba; respectfully; listening to/enjoying music is somewhere beyond science, at least at our present state of knowledge. Music, IMO, is an art form. When you look at two paintings and like one but not the other can that be explained scientificall... | |
| Impress Your Friends and Seduce Women! Redkiwi's above post touches on what to me is a really significant aspect of enjoying music, and that is simply "state of mind". Sometimes no matter what I listen to, it doesn't sound good, and I just have to quit. Other times music will "calm the... | |
| Impress Your Friends and Seduce Women! Hi Charlie; Daughter was home last week-end with a stack of Lyle Lovett CDs. Due to her's and your influence, I've gotta have "Joshua Judges Ruth" (and maybe some others)-- don't specifically remember trk #4, but I liked the whole CD a lot. Cheers... | |
| Impress Your Friends and Seduce Women! I really like Lucinda Williams "Car wheels on a Gravel Road" trks #7 and #12-- very dynamic and incredible soundstaging. This is an HDCD disk and is great music. I also very much like Emmylou Harris' "Cowgirls Prayer" for its detail, softness, and... | |
| Favorite Romantic Female Vocal Song(s)? Shirley Horn "Ultimate" CD, oin Verve. | |
| CD-R, CD-RW, SCMS??? Need Advice! Hi Musicdok; CD-Rs can be recorded on by computer "burners" and pro CD-R recorders. CD-Rs with SCMS watermarking are required for use in consumer grade CD recorders. These CD-Rs are are called "CD-Rs for consumer audio", or for music. Because they... | |
| "Burn in" Are you serious? Hi Waldhorner; When I get a new IC, cables, component etc., I make notes about the music quality/character of my system with the new piece right away. Then a few days to a couple of weeks later I critically listen and make notes again, and of cour... |
