| Cable for my Rythmik F12SE Sub @bdp24 Would you make a different recommendation were the connection to be made to speaker level binding posts on the sub? If so, what? Thanks in advance. | |
| Jazz for aficionados No problem on the link, Frogman. Hmmm...the same feeling for almost 4 years now? How about 8 years with unhappy prospects for a further 8 years to come (well 4 more, anyway). Ultimately, however, "There is no political solution to our troubled ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman - Thanks for those links (tho’ intended for inna). The Dave Douglas is new to me and based on a quick listen seems worth spending more time with. Just fyi...The intended link to Ben Monder’s The Distance, in fact opened to Craig Taborn’s P... | |

| Best Vintage Dac?? Mike - Curious what you mean when you say "vintage". DACs are a somewhat newer technical development. "Newer" being truest, I suppose, relative to them as standalone devices. I usually associate vintage with something old...say, mftd. 25 years... | |
| Review: Wyred4Sound Remedy Reclocker Gents - I’m interested in any further observations and comments about the iFi iPower DC wall wart. I got an Auralic Aries Mini a couple weeks ago. Have been enjoying it but am interested in hearing sonic improvements that are claimed when the as-s... | |

| Song covers that are better than the originals I like the Who's version of Summertime Blues way more than the original by Eddie Cochran.(That might well be a wind up for bdp24) re comments about Jimi. It ain't what you say so much as how you say it...pronouncements from Mount Olympus for us... | |

| Long lost songs You are welcome, Eddy. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Dixie Dregs - yeah, okay. Excellent musicianship. REALLY good. Musically it’s a little boring (well the bit sampled here) BUT I’ll listen to more by them. Great drumming. Heard of Steve Morse, of course. On the other hand I never listened to them ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman - I’ll comment here briefly on a couple of things from your latest posts. Will get back afterwards on the new links you included.1) Pleased to read we share great esteem for arrangers. In the statement from me that you quote, might be more... | |
