| Listening Room unreceivedogma @gents I have a chair in the sweet spot. I move my head even a few inches left or right, the sound changes. I do not “do other stuff” while I listen. That’s not listening, and it’s a waste, imho, of the investment in both time and... | |
| Vinyl Only https://forum.audiogon.com/posts/2691047the very most of R&R Hall of Fame will most-likely get me to lift up needle.czarivey Word. | |
| One answer to an oft-asked question. There's an entire world of music I haven't heard, so listening to things like internet radio stations near and far, I'm always finding something new and good to listen to. Excellent AOR I missed through the years just catching stuff on Sirius XM ... | |
| Listening Room Listen, a good stereo is a good stereo even if you listen in another room- and it’s really good when it sounds good in another room. More often than not, I’m listening from my kitchen or my front porch or over supper in our dining room and not a f... | |
| Andrew Singer Of "Sound by Singer" passed away yesterday And I could never even get the time of day at The Stereo Exchange. I tried a handful of times. Maybe it was the Rolex/Mercedes thing... Fortuitously, not caring for being invisable at The Stereo Exchange resulted in me finding my little audio ’lo... | |
| Schitt Yggdrasil More is Better Funny thing about the LIM- I 'restocking fee' auditioned the final Yggy LIM just as the new, modular (remote) LIM came out. So, with a new one out there, which they said was the same, just 'modular' I purchase the latest model because the Yggy bro... | |
| Andrew Singer Of "Sound by Singer" passed away yesterday Upon first site of ’Andrew Singer Of "Sound by Singer" passed away yesterday’ I immediately thought there’ll likely be more than a few ’ugh finally’s floating around the hobby today. I met him once, probably 30 years ago, as a pair of hands while... | |
| What is your most fond musical memory. This was a really good thread. I've been so lucky to be who I am and where I was in pop music time. I've essentially met of my music heroes with the exception of Elvis, who I was blessed enough to see pretty closely back in 1975. I've been reall... | |
| Buying Used Speakers I have absolutely no problem driving from New York City to, say, Ohio to pick up speakers I want. I know more often than not people generally don’t have a problem with FedEx or UPS, but if you’ve ever had a problem trying to collect on an insured ... | |
| Thin Line Between Critique and Courtrooms: A Dialogue on the Recent Audiophile Drama Going forward, let Tekton and it’s big, bad mouthpiece suffer the consequence of being a thin skinned bully in a business that relies upon listener reviews and word of mouth opinion. Bigger and better makers with more money in the game suffered ba... | |
| Kind of Blue Bill Evans Sunday at the Village Vanguard and Waltz for Debby. You can’t not love it. I’m guaranteeing Bill Evans. What a good place you’re in. You heard something good and you want more of it. Late ’50s early 60’s Jazz recordings, this my friend... | |
| What is your most fond musical memory. Great thread. I’m not sure I didn’t post this before, but in a lifetime of really good musical memories, one standout is four or five nights in a row of Sinatra at Radio City Music Hall. I had ’met’ him before at the Carnegie Hall stage entrance ... | |
| What is your most fond musical memory. Sneaking down and seeing Elvis a hundred feet away for five minutes at the Nassau Coliseum in 1975. God Bless The King. | |
| Upgrading preamp. Best for under $1K Ps, I wasn't going to suggest one particular preamp because there are a lot of good ones in the world of vintage gear. That said, for a little more than the grand, I recommend a Krell KRC 3 which can probably be had for $1,200 at this point in tim... | |
| Upgrading preamp. Best for under $1K I wouldn’t say ’it’s easy’ to get a great preamp under a grand, however, I’ve had that challenge before and it can be a lot of fun. There’s a lot of very very good stuff, especially vintage stuff, that you can really enjoy chasing down. Make sure ... |
