| Wilson Sabrinas, electronics and Subs Nagra and Wilson are very synergistic. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? nicks25A remarkably great sounding album, not from a transparency POV but from a "you're in a bathroom size recording studio with the band" feel. | |
| Magico vs the world I have listened to numerous Magicos from the year the company reached these shores to the current line from A to Q. I admire the build quality which is extraordinary. But I have not heard one model that sounded like I was in the presence of liv... | |
| John Prine, singer, songwriter, legend - Dead at 73 from COVID-19 We lose so many these days it seems. This one really hurts because he was such a class act inside and out. To me, he represented the musical embodiment of Polonius’ declaration: " brevity is the sole of wit". His writing was always infused with hu... | |

| Visiting audio stores? I don't blame the President for pushing successfully to eliminate a permanent epidemic monitoring and command group inside the White House National Security Council (NSC) and another in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)—both of which follo... | |
| Vinyl vs. top-notch digital It is a rare cd that betters its vinyl counterpart. This is especially so with recordings made prior to the late 1990s I’ve compared many on my system--Wilson Alexia 2s, ARC Ref 160 monos, ARC Ref 40 preamp, Spectral SDR 4000SV, cd player, BelCant... | |
| Underrated album: Sonics AND Music Agree on all 3 points with Rocketroom. 3 demonstration quality albums with great sonics. Los Lobos Kiko on mobile fidelity master recording vinyl is one of my favorite albums, musically and sonically. |
