| Where do I go from Eva Cassidy? Well stated Newbee. Eva's voice just penetrates right to the heart. Two other female vocalists with remarkable, albeit different, vocal talents, who also sing standards: Virtually anything by Jacinta is great. Holly Cole..."Temptation" and "Dark D... | |
| About Pathos New Classic One I'm not sure I'm understanding correctly, but I'll give this one a try based on what I do understand you're saying:If the hissing sound exists ONLY on older recordings this could very easily be tape hiss. Recordings made when technology was not up... | |
| Where does the designation of "Audiophile" fit... Diesel slept while I stood watch. Timf-You did not offend me even remotely. When you see my posts you have a 50/50 chance of them being dead serious and chock-full of golden nuggets of useful information and wisdom befitting of Ghandi himself, or,... | |
| Where does the designation of "Audiophile" fit... Too late for that advice Golivejr! Stayed up all night with Diesel and just went through my 14th shot of espresso. I live in Seattle man. It's against the law not to drink coffee in Seattle! They'll stick your ass in jail strap you down and hook y... | |
| Where does the designation of "Audiophile" fit... Whew!? That's one of those codewords, isn't it? Whew? Probably means that anyone who knows where I live should come to my house and strangle me with a thick, expensive power cord, and put me out of everyone's misery once and for all! You're one of... | |
| Where does the designation of "Audiophile" fit... Stick me in a pidgeon hole, will'ya?! Have me crawlin' about with all that pidgeon shit?! Stuff me in a neat little box so you can check that off your list and know exactly where I stand...or rather crouch deeply in that contorted and painful posi... | |

| How about a contest? Ernie - Good on'ya man! That's the best method; put a shine on it that you could almost catch your reflection in, eh?! We don't need no stinkin' Viagra!!! ;-)Marco | |
| Recommendations for 93+ DB efficient moniters At just a bit above your budget, used you may want to consider the Reference 3a Decapo monitors. The 'i' is the more recent version. Art Dudley wet his skivvies over these monitors about a year ago in Stereophile. His drool bucket doth often runne... | |
| Maggie's and cats You can rent our Bullmastiff, Diesel, for a day (see my system page). He'll take care of your cat problems for sure. If you live outside of the Pacific Northwest then I bet there'd be some willing dog-owners in your own region.The duct tape idea i... | |
| How about a contest? Tireguy - wait, I've gotta polish mine up first!Marco | |
| Your favorite but unknown At the risk of sounding like a broken record, and since I'm the only one who seems to metion this one in the forums here, the Vancouver BC singer/songwriter Richard Buckner. Wonderful songwriting, great voice, wonderful acoustic guitar playing. CD... | |
| How about a contest? Lets just make it a big party/picnic with other sporting games like bobbing for 300B tubes, and pin the tail on the driver! There could be CD Ultimate Frisbee, and lets not forget the popular DAC Pinata! For all you old track stars from back in hi... | |
| TV's... what does the typical audiophile have? Haven't watched any television in over five years. It's a friggen' waste of time for the most part! I can't believe anyone would actually PAY to get garbage programming and advertising access on a hundred and something different channels. Brain nu... | |
| How much burn-in for Soliloquy 5.3s Yes, the story was that Soliloquy ran out of drivers, but still had some of the older cabinets with squared off corners (non-i). So for those remainders and some of the B-stocks offered by them and their dealers (Underwood amongh others) they comb... |
