Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp
My sister gave me this bear, he came in a box with air holes, for she knows what I know, bears breath!Wonderful - I bet I'd like your sister! What does the bear think of the Calypso? I guess he's not exactly in the best position to judge!Thanks a... 
Not recognized in their lifetime?
Nick DrakeThough he was able to obtain some notoriety and fame, Robert Johnson's impact on the world of music after his death was far greater than the notoriety he garnished while he was alive may have reflected. 
Tube cdp's and Tubed Output cdp's
I've heard tubed players that sound wonderful, and SS players that do as well. A tube(s) in the output stage of a CD player, does not, by any means, to my ears, make anywhere near as profound a distinction as does implementation/comparison of tube...

Howard (Boa2) - you're just pointing out the hole in the hole-finders! And, in turn, I am pointing out the hole in your finding a hole in the hole-finders. Oh so many holes...this is getting to be like a porn site! The point of the forums is to pr... 
Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp
Wow, thanks for the thorough review!! Great job! So I just have one question: Are the acoustics better with the polar bear in place, and if so, where do I get one? OK, I guess that's two questions.Marco 
Thoughts about these forums
I, for one, am glad that life, and Audiogon, does not fit into a pidgeon-hole that is defined by any one person. I would just as readily embrace a "serious" conversation about music or some component, as I would welcome a more light-hearted relief... 
Delima
I would allot a giant loogie full of phlegm to the bunch of you who have made fun of my spelling hypocrisy. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father was an elderberry tree!Marco 
Delima
Your "delima" seems to extend to spelling dilemma! Speakers probably won't help you there, but I'd go with Rives and get a two-way that was compatible with the rest of your speakers. Purchase something used as you will get more bang for your peso.... 
Any Colin Hay Fans?
Thanks for that notice Kid. I was astounded that to find one of the cuts I like most off the great soundtrack from Garden State, was Colin Hay. As you said, singing only with acoustic guitar. Lovely song (I just don't think I'll ever get over you)... 
Who needs spellcheck?
Dunno' about Spellcheck, but I could use Babblefish to translate some of this crap you guys are writing. Maybe their translator needs another section: English to Webspeak.MarcoPS Hey Newbee, my Grampa checked out your Gramma and said she was prett... 
Review: Portal Panache Integrated Amplifier
Ejlif - I took a listen to the Parasound (I'm sorry, but I didn't take note of the preamp) along with some Gallo Reference 3's and found that particular combination to be rather sterile and non-engaging. It's weird as it was so squeeky clean I fin... 
Any one heard "The Five Browns"?
Thanks Audiobugged - I just hope they all can swim!Marco 
Review: Portal Panache Integrated Amplifier
Hey Slate - Take a deep breath and exhale...you did a fine job! I've got a Panache in house in my home system now for over a month and it has really surprised me. I am not by any means a fan of solid state, and even some of the best SS components ... 
I need a speakercable that bring voices forward me
Marco and I wear our Douchebag emblems with pride, so anyone can identify us at great distances.My "Douchebag" emblem fell off Dean. I haven't had time to sew it back on, therefore I always have to introduce myself as a douchebag so people will kn...
