| Discovering New Music..... If you like Julie Miller, and I do, DEFINITELY check out Patty Griffin..."Living with Ghosts", "1000 Kisses", the live album "A Kiss in Time" actually has Julie Miller and her husband, Buddy, backing up Patty...Great stuff!Marco | |
| Life is complicated, lets keep it simple. There are several options for a computer 'remote' that utilizes bluetooth. The new MacBooks incorporate them, but I've read their interface is not that good. There are others, perhaps someone else might suggest one. I know there are a few Palm Pil... | |
| Life is complicated, lets keep it simple. At risk of sounding like a broken record (pun intended), go the Apple route most are advising here. I'm not crazy about the wireless Apple Express solution though. I ended up liking the sound of a hard-wired (USB) direct connection, rather than wi... | |
| Klipsch RB-51 vs Epos ELS-3 for a small room? I helped my in-laws out, purchasing and setting up a pair of ELS-3's in a small room. Not bad, but I think you can do better. They don't come up that often, but see if you can find a pair of Soliloquy Sat-5 monitors. I have those in my kitchen and... | |
| Discovering New Music..... Absolutely, try Pandora. It does Amazon one better as long as you have the time to listen. From the list you've shared, here are a few artists/albums that come to mind that you may also enjoy:Damien Rice, "O"Tori Amos, Too many selections to pick ... | |
| Shakti Stones Do they actuall work guys. I do not have any "Absolute Sound" or "Hi-Fi" mags around to compare to but I am sure they would make even more improvement.I have some rare NOS Sears Roebuck catalogues from the 1960's that I was just about to list here on A'gon. Ping me off the ... | |
| Shakti Stones Do they actuall work guys. I believe if you believe in the belief that there is a possibility of believing something will work in the real world, and that your belief is what makes that thing work....wait a minute, I lost track of my beliefs...the whole thing's just unbelie... | |

| int amp for naim cd5x the salesman who i purchased the ps audio gcc-100 amp from and he said the naim cd player was the worst choice to mate with the ps audio but i couldnt follow the reasoning for it.(he said this even before i stated my problem)Sounds like the salesm... | |
| int amp for naim cd5x I used to have a Naim CD5 (not the X). I liked that player a whole lot and never found it congested. I'm a bit confused why you are looking at your amplification if you just got the player and as a direct result of putting the player in your syste... | |
| Small Floor Standers Any of the Soliloquy floor standers would definitely fit the bill. They are no longer in business, but are a great bargain on the used market these days. Better to find a pair local to you as they are very HEAVY, and really require better packing ... | |
| mp3 and highend components? Plenty of input in the archives and over at AudioAsylum (PC Asylum) on this subject. Who cares if you're offending anyone with your choice of gear?! If you like the iPod and it brings you closer to the music you love...well, it's all good. If you ... | |
| Smoking Buds Warren I smoke Shure E4C's when I have the hankering to move and groove. Mighty happy with em'. Grant, per Gold's review, those are shortcomings of most in-ear phones. The UE-10 use custom ear molds to seat the phones deeper in with greater isolat... | |
| Solid state; when would you use tubes? Jax2If you are ever riding in the SF Bay area of Northern California, look me up and come have a listen to my SET rig. I wouldn't trade it for anythingI just took a look at your system page, Doc: WOW! I'm already packing a large suitcase which I'l... |
