| Taylor Swift Concert Prices I just saw Iggy Pop a few weeks back in SF and the tickets were only $120 each. Ticket economics are getting out of hand with some artists. Shoot, Dave Chappelle just had a pop up show and they were only $100 until people found out. People are the... | |
| Picture worth a penny LOL!!!! @roadwhorerecords VinylJerk to be exact, and it's fantastic. Lol. | |
| millercarbon @hilde45 lol this is so spot on. | |
| Vinyl static ionizers who's used them? @lewm I saw the Acaia release this last week and it seems awesome. I have a big problem with chaff clinging in my Baratza grinder and will be picking up the Ion Beam. I will definitely be trying it with my turntable to see if there's any benefit. ... | |
| Sonus Faber Olympica nova 2 VS Sonus Faber Cremona M Loudspeaker vs I run Sopra 2's and play tons of punk, metal, extreme metal and classic rock. @mofojo is probably right on with SF being too warm. You probably want a speaker more sharp, focused, detailed and fast. Focal does this, but they're so extremely overpr... | |
| Best Class D GaNFET Amp Comparison. Who to invite? PS Audio M1200 would be a great amp to test as well. I'm actually looking to pick up a class D amp so I'd be willing to bring some drinks to the event to listen, if in the Bay. Scotch anyone? | |
| How hot is hot when moving from class a/b to to a or tubes? Heat definitely varies from person to person and I think room size and location in the world play a huge role in understanding anecdotal information . I have an upstairs south facing room that gets sun for the entire day, I'm located in California... | |
| What's A Good Upgrade From A Manley Steelhead? It has been brought to my attention that I mis-spoke in my post and am unable to edit my post. The Allnic H-5500 was bested by the Allnic H-3000 that I had purchased. The H-6500 is a Preamp and not a Phonostage. | |
| What's A Good Upgrade From A Manley Steelhead? @whart was the reason I purchased my Allnic H-3000. Will probably be my last phono. It smoked my Allnic 6500 and just had such warmth and encompassing sound. Plus the build quality and tube rolling in the power supply definitely does help unlock m... | |
| Cable upgrade @soix is correct in letter your Sopra's settle in. I listened to my Sopra 2's for about 6 months before they settled in. I was maybe listening 2 hours per day for 5 days per week. So that's about 40 hours a month and 240 hours over 6 months. The b... | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time It's pretty funny to see the old guys defending low quality country music by claiming rap is worse. Great stuff. | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? Rap has impacted me in the same light as punk and hardcore. It's a genre from the streets with gritty and personal tales. It's even more impactful with it's on a local level and around you. My parents never understood it, so I'd say it's revolutio... | |
| Shunyata Delta or Alpha V2 NR vs. AQ Hurricane HC @audphile1 yeah I figured it wasn't in the same league. I'm very happy with the Alpha and I want to get a few more to experiment once I get a new amp. Shunyata rules and they have my business from here on out. | |
| Shunyata Delta or Alpha V2 NR vs. AQ Hurricane HC I had a Shunyata Delta on trail and gave it a few weeks but wanted to try going up the chain to the Alpha. It was a vast improvement and I'm glad I made the move. It got me to the level I could be satisfied at and the detail retrieval was awesome.... | |
| RIP Tom Verlaine Television was my intro to protopunk. Great band. Man this winter has been a rough one for older musicians. RIP |
