| Which band IS really America's Greatest (rock & roll band)? America? Besides being a Soft Pop band. They are a UK group. | |
| Which band IS really America's Greatest (rock & roll band)? Well as I don't think The Jimi Hendrix Experience qualifies as while Jimi was American, the Experience were English, and were formed in the UK. So International, although Band Of Gypsy's does qualify. So an approximate Top 20:Neil Young & Craz... | |

| Bands with great second albums +1 Warren Zevon "Excitable Boy" I didn't realize that was his second, great album. It wasn't. Was officially his third album. The self titled Album was his 2nd Album. Superb Album and better than Excitable Boy. | |

| Revel Ultima Studio 2 & Pass Labs XA30.5 Own Studio 1's. My experience with them and for my personal tastes is they lap up heaps of Power and sound better with plenty of quality Power/Current. Out of my half dozen owned Power Amps and a couple of others tried with the Studios, my prefere... | |
| DO CABLES REALLY MATTER? All Cables make a big difference, Power, Interconnect & Speaker Cables. There is also the very important matter of Cable Synergy. I have enough Components for 6 Systems, although only 3 Set-Up currently. Some Cables mate beautifully between so... |
