| foreign lyrics -------do you care? I've been spending a fair bit of time re-discovering French rock & blues lately, mind you I do speak French so I suppose it's not really "foreign" to me. When I travel I hear all kinds of different music and quite enjoy it so... yes I like for... | |
| DIY Perforated metal grills? Hardware stores carry perforated metal, it is a bit of a bear to cut but I imagine it'll get the job done. If you need larger sizes you may consider talking to Martin Logan and buying some material from them, they use large perforated grills on th... | |
| Why don't kids nowadays know about Jazz and classi I guess it depends on how you raise your kids. I have three of 'em (14,13,11) and they are well-versed in all sorts of music, I've always encouraged them to listen to whatever piques their interest. My CD collection is theirs to experiment with so... | |
| Does anyone do good protest music anymore? I don't see how a band (e.g. Rage Against the Machine) can be faulted because their music/message was embraced by millions of people. Are they insincere they became popular in the process, and should they refuse the money cuz they would "appear" t... | |
| Dire Straits and Eagles XRCD worth $37? The Dire Straits "Brothers in Arms" XRCD is worth every penny, huge improvement over the original release. The Eagles less so but a good disc all the same. | |
| Which Hootie and the Blowfish album to buy ? "Cracked Rear View Mirror" is their best, I couldn't get into "Fairweather Johnson". A very talented band and the guys are golf fanatics, what's not to like? Enjoy the music, Jeff | |
| Your "DREAM" piece Marakanetz"To have all original FZ albums".My friend has ever last FZ record ever released. all of 'em! At last count over 80 records! I'm humbled with my 30 or so FZ records. | |
| Does anyone do good protest music anymore? As noted above Rage Against the Machine was 100% protest material, it's a real shame they broke up (Audioslave is not even close to what RATM was). I woulda loved to have seen RATM live *sigh*Although I can't tolerate most rap music it should be c... | |
| Visit the Wonderful World of Analog Raul Style I had a physical reaction to Raul's stuff, I'll need some time alone now | |
| Gallo Reference3 back orders One of the drawbacks of building stuff overseas, takes quite some time to get to you by slow boat. You save money having stuff built in China, but you certainly add plenty of time to the mix. Patience is a virtue... Jeff | |
| A worse feeling than burning out your amp? Bust a brand new cartridge while installing it and you know what real clumsiness is all about. Do it more than once and you know you're a prime candidate to apply for the job as the village idiot. | |
| Meadowlark Shearwater vertical orientation. Tobias' sytem is VERY musical, I'd follow his advice. We're overdue for a listening session eh Toby? It's all about the music, Jeff | |
| $6-7k to Spend on Turntable Why not buy an Oracle Delphi V? Certainly fit your price range and you know it'll accomodate a SME arm easily. | |
| Speaker cable suggestions I've tried a lot of different cables over the years, none of them priced much higher than your stated range. There's a lot of hype and "black art" explanations regarding wire in general (and as we all know, outrageous profit margins in most cases)... | |
| Need help for a replacement of my Levinson 33H I'll second the Classe recommendation, but if cost is no object I'd probably go for Halcro. Yes they're expensive but they sure do sing like no other SS amp I've heard. |
