| BEST FEMALE VOCAL EVER @soundsbeyondspecs +1! I couldn't agree more. I am a huge fan of Melody. All of her albums are worth having. Meaningful, heartfelt songs sung by a gal who has been through some very rough times. "My One and Only Thrill" is my favorite song o... | |

| The midi range, not the tweeter, is the most important driver in a speaker. @erik_squires If I used only one driver in the Vandy Model 7 it wouldn't be a Vandersteen design! | |

| The Beatles Anniversary issues question ..... That's it as of now. Revolver and Rubber Soul would be great to hear after Giles would clean them up. | |
| Audioquest vs. Others @mkash3 +1. You need to get to the FEP air tubes in the AQ line for the bass to resolve impact and for the soundstage to open up. | |
| Audioquest vs. Others If in the AQ mode for cables stay with the highest quality (purity) conductors you can afford and always go with their FEP (teflon) dielectric. If you can afford it, the FEP tubes are the very best. If you are not in a rush you can often score a... | |
| Seeking help finding the weak link(s) in my system and offering suggestions please. Very nice system with carefully selected elements. If I were to choose a weak spot that would truly affect the musicality (cleanness, clarity, detail) would be the Blue Jeans White speaker cables. Perhaps you could look on the used market for a ... | |

| A visit to the (Audio) Doctor I have at times felt that Audio Doctor's participation on other threads is inappropriate when they try to steer those involved in the discussion to gear they sell and then list the associated equipment lines at the end of the posts. In this case ... |
