Scotch? No thanks. Whats the best Vodka.? Any hangover is foul. | |
best vocal harmonies in rock From my perspective, no one mentioning Van Halen needs to apologize (and I'm f'ing old). Those high vocal harmonies by bassist Michael Anthony are wonderful and contribute to a signature sound. Don't know if that constitutes a "best" but sure is n... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? e - I messed up on the album title...but the track, Private Investigations is definitely one of my favorites. Glad you like it too. I have a vinyl copy of Local Hero...haven't played it in a while. I will have to it out. Merry Christmas to you. | |

Experience with high end fuses???? I didn't expect a HiFi tuning fuse to make a difference in my modest system (at the time, running a JoLida 502B). The idea that a short run of very small diameter wire should make a difference seemed silly. But as a $30 tweak, the single one I nee... | |
what do you use to remove your tubes? I too try to avoid direct finger contact with the glass of the tube. Generally I use a paper towel folded and wrapped around the tube and grip at the base...but my tubes are pretty much fully exposed. I like the cotton sock approach. Am using one ... | |
Anyone running Totem Forests w/Dreamcatcher subs? JJM - Thanks for the reply...I have heard GREAT stuff about Plinius (esp. 9100/9200?) with Forests. I'm driving mine now with a JAS H-1 hybrid tube amp (EL34 power tubes; transistor pre-amp) Mainly I get great bass from the Forests...much more tha... | |

Anyone running Totem Forests w/Dreamcatcher subs? DG - Thanks. Folks at Totem replied to an email I sent and recommended the Storm (little bro. of Thunder) and not the Dreamcatcher. I'd appreciate any info about how you placed the sub. Thanks. | |
Which DAC? Running a VDac as well to facilitate internet music streaming and work in the limited space I have for it (it is tiny!). To break it in until my netbook arrives, I've been using the digital out from my Upgrade Factory modified Denon 2910. The Deno... | |
Anyone running Totem Forests w/Dreamcatcher subs? Folks - Thanks for the input...I'm mainly IN LOVE with the sound from the Forests. Just that every once in a while I'm thinking bass ought to be a little stronger (very recording specific too). Not so much deeper, just a tad bit louder (and I do m... | |
Lost that "Tube Magic". Can you help? I'm curious how long the Scott was run with the new caps. I've been shocked at how long caps can take to "burn in" (for lack of a better expression). I think I'm with Philojet. M aybe things will get better with more time??? | |
Shopping for a new netbook or laptop... FWIW...went with Asus 1005HA with Windows 7 and 2GB Crucial RAM upgrade. | |
Scotch? No thanks. Whats the best Vodka.? Hey there, Mjwpicman - a guy at the State store also recommended Sobieski. He says it is rye-based. In any case, got some...it's good. Has body, flavor and is smoothe. Not to mention a very nice price. | |
Power Strip Question - PLEASE HELP Honest1 - missed the OP's later post about temporary housing and landlord restrictions. Jferreir - My thought was to leave one duplex receptacle available for your amp (i.e., plug it directly into wall). Plugging a strip for non-audio devices into... |
