| Piano Solo on Inspector Morse "Jericho" episode Many thanks Jamscience. Yes, it is an excellent series. I had my wife watch the episode in question and she pointed out that my memory of the scene itself was as good as my spelling. The scene I was thinking of was operatic. She did not tell me wh... | |
| Piano Solo on Inspector Morse "Jericho" episode I meant to say "male" visitor...he was not interrupted by the postman. Carry on. | |
| newbie with basic question, please Apple will definitely work fine with Benchmark USB version (the current version available). Whether you like the Benchmark sound is another story altogether. There are alternatives. Any USB DAC should work fine. My choice would be an MHDT Paradise... | |
| The best acoustic guitar recordings?? This guy absolutely shreads.Shred this! | |
| The best acoustic guitar recordings?? Great suggestions so far. Since you don't suggest a specific style or genre, I'll just do as others do and ad a few names I have yet to read, but are worthy of the list (sorry if I missed them as I haven't read all the responses yet):Rory Block, W... | |
| What do you do with all those CD's?? I really don't like looking at them at all, so I prefer drawers as they're easy to access. I recently discovered the storage drawers made by CanAm which are a bit pricy, but are heavy duty and hold alot of CD's efficiently and with a clean modern ... | |
| The SET amp question. Unlike some of the responses, I cannot lend further technical explanations, but I can share some impressions of how single ended triode (yes, the "T" is in place in my experiences I'm sharing here) distinguish themselves in presenting music. I hav... | |
| Need cabinetry/shelving advice Look for a used Salamander cabinet on Craig's List. Typically a Twin 30 will be under $500. | |
| New Music: Oh Laura I love The Be Good Tanyas - I saw them live last year and they are great live as well. Their CD's are pretty well recorded (Blue Horse and Chinatown are both great), though I thought the recent one (Hello Love) wasn't as well recorded as the other... | |

Sorry, she's Norah may be waiting for a new tube, but she ain't singing about it:Something you should know about Turn Me On LyricsTitle: Norah Jones - Turn Me On lyricsArt... | |
| Rethinking Listening Fatigue You mention that your conversion is via a HagTech USB interface...is this the Chime DAC or is it just the small, inexpensive S/PDIF/USB converter? If the latter, I would suggest you try a different DAC in its place. I did not find that converter t... | |
| If I like Dynaudio monitors, I would LOVE????? You might enjoy the latter iterations of the Silverline SR17 and 17.5. I believe the VIII uses a Dyanaudio + Esotar combo. Great monitor. I've never heard the Dynaudio's you love so I could not comment on how they'd compare, but I'm a big fan of S... | |
| Paradisea Dac You can buy his stuff directly from eBay where is rating is 100% positive after 666 feedbacks. I don't think you can go wrong. I've never heard of anyone having a problem with them, which is not to say it is unheard of. He has a new DAC called the... | |
| Anyone else miss audiophile nervosa? I do remember the day when virtually every hi-end stereo shop and every room at every show used that disc as a demo disc. It'd usually be there along with Jazz at the Pawnshop. Oh how I'd rather forget! I really never wanted my MTV anyway! I've he... |
