'Oh yeah, as regards America's position in the world, anyone realize France elected a conservative President, as did Germany? Europe is slowing starting to come around because - their 9/11s are truly being plotted now'.Tom with all due respects I ... 
Report from Rocky Mountain AudioFest
My 2cents from the show which I must say Is a great way to spend $10 at a nice venue with nice friendly hi-fi buffs. I thoroughly enjoyed It although 6 hours Is not enough time to listen and see most of the gear on show on the friday, which Is sha...

Seems like there are a few Bruce haters for whatever reason. I like his music and don't pay any attention to which way he sways politically. He gives real value when he plays live.

Next on the list for Mahler....
Just checked on Amazon and the 12 CD box set Is now $95.98 new and from $52.88 used. Bit of a price hike, but If Its good It maybe worth It. 
Radiohead's new business model:
I think for what you get the $80 Is very reasonable. I of course speak out as one of their Biggest fans. They are an 'Indie' band and are not a 'rock' group as The Nu Yoik Times have said, nor are they In the same league as the Supergroup the Stro... 
Speaker Preferences?
No Volume? I was wondering why last at years hi-fi the room with those Quad ELS? had a classical piano cd and It was being played being played at a seriously low volume ie almost 'Is It on'?, which surprised me as the seats (except mine, and I fel...

SOPOR AETERNUS. The most beautiful avantegarde/gothic/mournful/from the crypt music, Anna's voice is something to behold. My favorite artist ever. Sings In German and English.

Sorry that you had trouble with a b***sh1ter.Ebay is funny in that to leave a 'feedback', they only give you 80 characters to give a full account of the transaction, yet to send a general enquiry to a seller about an Item they allow you 900 charac...
