O - Listened to all of Rising Son.  Liked it (well most of it; Everybody Loves the Sunshine got kind of boring).  Now listening to TK's Zigzagger.  This seems to have more energy than Rising Son. His tone is still pretty smooth however.  I do like... 
Request advice-need "brighter" speakers than Totem Hawks
B - What speakers did you have before the Hawks? 
subwoofer to match with my bookshelf/monitors
Good luck, Sam.  Running a pair of SVS SB1000s myself.  Couldn't be happier.  Don't have experience with bookshelf/monitors so I didn't chime in earlier.  With floor standers running down to (80-50?) Hz on their own before things start dropping of... 
Whats playing on your system today?
Hey Nutty - Got Resonate cranking now and LOUD. Thanks for your note about it. Playing it the second time now back to back (streaming from Tidal). Not too many things that hold my interest all the way through these days, let alone twice in a row. ...

Ditto dbtom’s recommendation. Time for some nice cans and a little headphone amp. AKG K550 (extremely comfortable!), Asgard 2, and a Dragonfly Black plugged into a laptop. Cans, amp, & DAC all new for around $600.Late arriving thought:  the K5...

O - Thanks for the explanation.  I absolutely understand.  It's like you said another time about "reception".  For me, it started out fun but got kind of repetitive and annoying.   That Takuya Kuroda was a nice counter to them.  Glad you find it w...

Alex - you know how to pick 'em.  Thanks for those Maceo links.  Frogman - Another very insightful post from you.  Ever think about doing record reviews?  Better than a lot of the stuff I read.  I should have realized who the JBs were.  Recognized... 
Request advice-need "brighter" speakers than Totem Hawks
Hello bheiman - I agree with lowrider, that just does not sound like the Totem Hawks I know (or Totem sound in general). I do wonder if there could be an impedance mis-match with your amp that is affecting high frequency output. Would be interesti...

Well The JBs wore out their welcome somewhere way north of track 10.  Party over but they wouldn't go home.  Something a little more interesting here, maybe...  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spH_3GV6YsY&ab_channel=u0u0

A Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.  Certainly, for me, much to be grateful for.  Acman...thanks for those Ari Hoenig links.  A new name to me.  I enjoyed that 2nd "All Blues".  Sure don't sound like blues though!  I appreciate drummers that play wi...

Glad you like her, @jafant. I only have Small Repairs and 4 Walls.  Based on those, her songwriting is strong, the arrangements and production are superb and the sound quality (CD) is very good on both.  I need to get a listen to her other albums.
