| Revisiting some music from the past ... @jim204 +1! Shostakovich is at the top of the mountain musically. All those who have come after the "great Russian" can only look up in wonder... | |
| Barnes and Noble 50% off Vinyl Sale!!! Thanks @mofimadness !! | |
| Why are brick and mortar HiFi dealers so bad? OP - Get thee to Audio Connection in Verona and thy concerns shalt be allayed by Sir John of Rutan.😀 | |
| Audioquest buys GoldenEar Based on the info.released by the OP, Bill Low and Sandy have been acquainted for 50+ years and AQ may want a well regarded speaker brand to mate with their cable line. This could be a good move for both concerns. Not hard to imagine promoting ... | |
| 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. A great year! | |
| 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! | |

| Newb..pls help. Hello mormark!Welcome to the ranks. If I were to do this audiophile thing all over, I would base my system on a really fine integrated amplifier with ample power to deliver natural dynamics. From following threads here for years, I would have to ... | |
| SACD or not Yep, go for a Marantz. Built like a tank but play with great finesse. There are many great sounding SACDs out there that are not symphonic in nature. Get Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" and Clark Terry's "Portraits". Those discs will allow y... | |
| 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. | |
