| Natalie Merchant's Tigerlily on LP...any good? If NM & CJ works for you...have you had a listen to Bethany & Rufus 900 Miles? VERY nice. There aren't any motel rooms or air conditioners involved in that recording, are there? I try to skip the recordings with "HVAC Technician" credited ... | |
| Natalie Merchant's Tigerlily on LP...any good? Fishboat - I think you've gone a killed a few too many brain cells, my friend. Here's the scoopon the original trinity session which was recorded in Toronto's Holy Church of the Trinity with a single microphone. The new version is also recorded in... | |
| Natalie Merchant's Tigerlily on LP...any good? If you love Natalie Merchant, and you also enjoy Cowboy Junkies, run, don't walk, to the Junk Store and pick up a copy of "Trinity Revisited". She is one of several guest performers invited by the Junkies to go back to Trinity Church in Toronto to... | |
| YOUR Favorite Bookshelf/Monitor below $500 I'll second the SAT-5's, and will add to your list Era Design 4's or 5's (used). A used set of 4's just came up for a bargain price and will not last long. No association with the seller and not necessarily recommending you buy that pair. Marco | |
| The most important link in the chain... As far as those stressing the room, well, I'd agree, per my post, it is certainly an important link. There are ways of dealing with a bad room though. Listening nearfield (with the right gear) can potentially be a runaround for a less than desirab... | |
| The most important link in the chain... I agree with Arthur on the overall picture; one bad link ruins the entire chain. In this case one bad link can wreak havoc with your music. As far as the priority of investment, if you search the archives that thread is already here...more than on... | |
| Best monitor for bel canto gear? Which "Bel Canto Gear"? You may get more responses if you're specific. Bel Canto makes SET amps and varioius Class D amps as well as DAC's and a player. Which speakers do you currently have? What are your goals in doing this. What kind of music do... | |
| Is iPod Digital Output Possible? That is not the unit I mentioned. That is a generation or two old.I went to the Alpine USA site and all I could find there was the same KCA-420i adapter box that I have in my van, which definitely does not extract a digital output from the iPod. W... | |
| Is iPod Digital Output Possible? Alpine makes a head unit for cars that does not have a CD player. It claims to take the digital output from an Ipod. So it must be possible.Also, check out Red Wine Audio. They do upgrades on Ipods though not the latest ones. They upgrade the anal... | |
| Anyone drive Magnepans with a B&K That was one of my very first combinations in the mid 80's: A BK EX-140 (dual-mono version of your amp) with a pair of Maggie SMGa speakers. It was a fine combination in small spaces and I did not want for more power. I cannot comment about using ... | |
| My iPod and me..... My question is, am I no less of an audiophile now or must I turn in my audiophile card?Clearly you have not suffered enough, nor spent enough money. Look into some expensive and exotic upgrades and tweaks. Stick a few Mundorf caps in there somewhe... | |
| ultimate compact travel system "Ultimate"? I'd drop the Micropods for the a paif of small Dynaudio self-powered BM5a monitors, which would eliminate the need for the amp. If you really wanted to go "Ultimate" at that point you could take the digital signal out of the ipod with ... | |
| Why no trading? Albert, you need to find a local chapter of "Friends of Leon" and get yourself to a meeting! That film also has a great pre-Hollywood performance by Gary Oldman...over the top! Marco | |
| Why no trading? Is that an early "The Professional," Natalie Teleportman tweak or a later version?No, this is the "Closer" Teleportman. You're thinking of the "Telepedoportman" (Beautiful Girls/The Professional) which costs extra. Get caught doing the Telepedopor... | |
| Why no trading? Albert, why settle for Ethel or Imagene when you can get the virtual experience of Natalie right over your phone lines whenever you want her?! It's the very latest from our favorite Ex-NASA tweak-meister...yep, you guessed it, the "Teleportman"! H... |
