| Are CD players goig the way of the 8 track,and the cassette? You do not, but I do hope you did it this time. It is even close to you.Just so you know, I was tempted but thought it would not be right not to leave it for you. I am not making it up. | |
| What was your most disappointing album purchase? geoffkait,Not at all.Learn to swim with big fish š. You may learn how to catch a worm š£. | |
| What was your most disappointing album purchase? geoffkait,"Oh, geez, glubson with his theories of reality again."Don't you hate it when someone knows more than you do? I actually own all of those Exile On Main Street copies I mentioned above. How about yourself? I own Ummagumma cassette, too. A... | |
| Are CD players goig the way of the 8 track,and the cassette? geoffkait,"Get a SONY Professional Walkman WM.....Wouldnāt you really rather have a Sony? š¤"I hope you did notice my little note the other day and acted on it. It was on some other thread. | |
| What was your most disappointing album purchase? You guys listened to the wrong format and wrong issue.Strangely enough, German LPs pressing from about 1982 is bad. German CD from 1990, or so, is bad. U.S.A. CD (Virgin) from mid-1990s sounds almost the same except it is much more clear which rev... | |

| What was your most disappointing album purchase? I have listened to Exile On Main Street many times and have multiple issues of it, but I do think it is overrated. It may be because there is always a story about it. Recorded wherever, recording sessions were whatever. It is never about the music... | |
| Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer? "...with a well judged contour..."Wow. Now I remember that some brands had "contour" switch.I think Grundig was one of them, but am not sure anymore. | |
| Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer? geoffkait,">>Sure, if it was a digital volume control, which it probably wasnāt.

| Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer? bluorion,Yamaha integrated amplifiers have a little bit of a different approach to "loudness button". It is not even a button and it is variable. From what I understand, and that is very questionable, it does not boost some frequencies but lowers ... | |
| Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer? "...a single volume amp designed and built by Pierreās partner Ron Bowman. No volume control, no tone control."That is how some of us used CD players with variable outputs. We did not need amplifier's volume control. | |
| Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer? "ebm is probably right ie most people never understood or used it."I suspect those who have it use it but are ashamed to admit it in front of others. Of course, not many have it.I never use tone controls, but I do use loudness button at times. | |
| Unbelievable "check out www.kyronaudio.com.auĀ and look up the Gaia. Full range, no box."Maybe you have to paint the room differently.http://www.kyronaudio.com.au/gaia.html | |
| How Do You Live The Audiophile Life If it happens again in the fall, I recommend taking a weekend trip to Capital Audio Fest (conveniently located on the red line of Washington, DC Metro so you do not even need a car). It is a quick and simple trip and it is a fairly large show. Muc... | |
| What was your most disappointing album purchase? "Hard to decide betweeen Kajagoogoo or Wang Chung."I think you are just Too shy, shy, to admit that Kajagoogoo is still as good as it was then. |
