| Jim Gordon has Passed On... Great rock drummer. Superb style. Knew when and when not to hit the skins. Sad story about the illness that caused his mother's death and put him away for life. He will be sadly missed. RIP Jim. | |
| Psychologist dissects Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' Listen to Dan Rather's interview with Roger Waters on AXS tv. Not as cranky and insensitive as you may think. In fact deeply intellectual and committed to his beliefs. You may not agree with them all but you will understand how he got there. I fo... | |
| Rodney Crowell teams up with Jeff Tweedy. Tweedy may have more sales and recognition than on Crowell, but IMHO they have equal but different talents. Sometimes brilliant, sometimes boring. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot or The Houston Kid? | |
| Debating between Mcintosh SS or tube monos. The 2301s provide a touch more sweetness and dimensionality to the presentation than SS. SS has a slightly tighter bottom end, but the 2301s certainly do not lack for bass. I must confess to being a tube fan who in my prior system chose Mac tubes ... | |
| Stylus gauge recommendations ? Good call. | |
| Stylus gauge recommendations ? To elaborate further, the Ortofon and Clearaudio measure perfectly, but the Ortofon is easier to use due to a larger measuring area. I have also used a Riverstone which is mostly accurate, usually within 1/10 gram, but suffers I believe from havin... | |
| Stylus gauge recommendations ? I’ve used AcousTech (a popular style sold under many different brand names), Cartridge Man, Clearaudio, Ortofon DS3. The clear winner for accuracy and dependability is the Ortofon DS3, Clearaudio second. | |
| Iris DeMent, past and present. Not nearly as well known as she should be. John Prine was a big fan. I got turned on to her in 1993 after listening to 10,000 Maniacs and David Byrne sing "Let The Mystery Be" on a 4 song cd. I saw the songwriter's name and immediately purchased... | |
| Ref75se The Ref 150se was the best audio component for the $ that I have ever owned. It is a world class amp that could fetch twice the price based on its performance. | |
| Wilson Sasha W/P amplifier pairing Agreed. Peter McGrath recommends this on ARC (and other) amps. I did it with my Ref160Ms and Sashas and now with my Alexia2s. It works. | |
| Innovative Autio in NYC just hung up on me Elliot and Chris are always a pleasure to deal with. A great high end store with a very knowledgable staff that love music and enjoy selling musical satisfaction to their customers. I find it hard to believe that there is not another side to the s... | |
| What's your favorite lyric from a song? Relevant then. More so today: "I read the news today, oh boy" | |
| TechDAS Reliability vs SME Note that the TechDas III Premium S has suspension feet. The table is offered with and without suspension feet, although given the choice--I opted for the S version. My second arm on the table is a Kuzma 4 point. | |
| TechDAS Reliability vs SME I have had my TechDas III Premium for about a month. Could not be happier with the sound and user interface. Love the vacuum hold down. | |
| Adjusting Azimuth on VPI Prime Signature Turntable Do not use the side weights. Use the Counterintuitive. |
