| Which TT Music Hall 5.1 or Rega P1 or P2 A few years back, I sold my Rega P2 and picked up a MMF5. (Not the 5.1.) But I was never happy with the Music Hall, and ended up buying back the Rega, with upgraded wiring and counterweight. It's a matter of taste, of course. I listen to a lot of ... | |
| CD Player with digital input? The much-touted Cambridge Audio 840c has a digital input, I do believe. | |
| Tom Petty fans Acoustic Sounds lists the vinyl -- on two discs from Reprise -- for release on June 24. And with a bonus CD! I'm waitin' for that. | |
| Do you pull A/C plugs during thunder storms? Some years back, I was living in a house at the top of a hill at the edge of a deep and wide valley. When a thunderstorm rolled in, you'd really know it -- and it tended to stick around. One not so fine day, a storm was a-comin', so I unplugged ev... | |

| Best sounding LP nobody else has ever heard of... Here's another vote for The Blue Nile. I've got their first two albums on Linn Records, and they both sound fantastic. ("A Walk Across the Rooftops" is the debut, and "Hats," which I think is a nearly perfect record from start to finish, is their ... | |
| "Get Behind Me Satan" on vinyl Guess I shouldn't have allowed myself a bit of hyperbolic enthusiasm when what I was really wanting was an answer from someone who might know something that I simply don't know. I prefer vinyl. And I love Jack and Meg White's little band. I'm wond... | |
| Audiophile TT article in Forbes Let's all of us do some math and celebrate: The Forbes articles says that Sound by Singer sold 50 turntables last year, but just one five years ago. That's an increase of 4900 percent. Almost makes one think that our odd little hoppy (passion?) is... | |
