| Shopping for a new netbook or laptop... Thanks to all for your time and input. Some good leads to follow up on. Whether I go PC or MAC, right now I'm just trying to understand if their are minimum processor, RAM and hard drive specs I should observe. Again, my needs are simple: listen t... | |
| Power Cables which take the soundstage back You might consider a MAC (My Audio Cables) HC Sound Pipe. Reasonably priced (<$200). Can't say it will do all you are looking for in your system, but it is in line with your budget. I did hear a difference when I replaced the stock power cord o... | |
| DAC's ? Musical Fidelity offers a very affordable unit called the V-DAC. It's also quite small - a plus if you are space- limited as I am. Another Audiogon member highly recommends Beresford's TC 7520. Good luck. | |
| Double Albums/CDs, curse or blessing? Second's to Loomis for "Exile On Main Street" and Smholl for "The River". Both are solid throughout, IMO. | |

| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? Cwlondon - Well said...and frankly, I'm marginally apologetic about my little tirade. Your offer of a GT3 is intriguing.Will my wife enjoy driving it more than the Cayman we now have? Don't read too much into "Workingman". | |
| The great Soupy Sales died Saddened to hear this.Enjoyed him very much.RIP "Onions Oregano"! | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? "2010 Porsche GT3" - yeah, that's a typical audiophile ride, no doubt. Along with the analogous watch, cigar, beer and income threads - this one is stupid from the get-go. Ain't my first encounter with this thread. Just finally had enough. WTF is ... | |

| any new Beatle fans because of the remasters? Levy03 - Apologies if I contributed to the "sabotaging" of your thread. I was/am a Beatles fan without the remasters and frankly doubt I'll get them. Glad they gave you a reason to listen, however. I lived through the original "Beatlemania" as an ... |
