| Front wall speaker distance Not the back. | |
| Measuring Speaker Distance "Tried to go to the thread but says it was deleted"That's very odd. I just now clicked on the link above and up popped the thread I'd remembered. Anyway, not from the back of the speaker. Most folk say from the front, or from the plane of the driv... | |
| Measuring Speaker Distance A search of the forums will show that you aren't the first to have had this question. Here's my post on the matter:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl_u?cspkr&1284815594&&&&&/When-someone-says-his-speakers-are-Regards,H... | |
| Opting for no CDP -- only to regret it? "Respectfully: Which is more fuss...burning a new one to your library...or constantly searching through hundreds of cds for a specific cd or a song when the mood strikes you?"That's a false choice. Here's an example of what I was talking about: Go... | |

| Replacement for PS Audio Quintet Thanks, Al -- I appreciate your help. | |
| Hardwood floors in basement music room? In the place I lived in before this one, I had a carpet on the hardwood floor between the listening chair and the speakers. Same thing in the place I was in before that one. However, I've got nothing at all on the wood floor in my current home. I ... | |

| Old tapes reveal how BAD FM became WAQY! I'm a Western Massachusetts guy, too. Maybe I was listening 36 years ago as you made your tapes. | |
| Tom Waits Bad? Back in the 1970s, I had the great good fortune of seeing Tom Waits -- this was, I think, on the "Small Change" tour -- in a 2,000-seat venue, a university's Fine Arts Center. Just before the start of the show, a kid from the group that promoted c... | |
| guitar solos where less is more Robert Fripp's absolutely beautiful solo in "The Hammond Song" from The Roches' self-title debut album has long been a favorite. It is understated, smoother than a newborn baby's bottom, and then, brilliantly, fails to stop when you think it's all... | |
| Best Live Album Ever... Zeppelin's much-maligned "The Song Remains the Same," one of the most self-indulgent live albums ever, even more so on the re-issue from a few years back, is also an absolutely fabulous recording of a great rock and roll band at the top of its gam... | |
| Artists that deserve box sets Joni Mitchell. alternate versions, Outtakes, snippets, studio chatter, rehearsals, live cuts -- I want it all. |
