| Do I need or want preamp tone controls It would be nice to have tone controls that could be taken out of the circuit.Tone controls would help when playing poorly recorded [Bright/Harsh] CD's.JD | |
| The Biggest Disappointments in Rock and Roll I agree with TWL.Creative or great Rock died around 73.There are of course some exceptions.The best era in Creative Rock was from the mid 60's to the early 70's PERIOD.Punk,Grunge Rap was the worst of it!Made disco tolorable in retrospect. | |

| What music rang in your New Year Air,Moon Safari and 10,000 Hertz Legend.Great Electronic Band ! | |
| Help with TT recommendations. Off topic a bit but.Just a suggestion on your Rhapsody cables.I had these in my system[speaker and IC's] and it sounded choked.I moved up to their Maestros with some improvment and Virtuoso's a bit better.Then I moved to AZ Satori's and Matrix cab... | |
| Are sacd mods really worth the money? At the level of your System,I think I would start off modding something better than a Philips-1000.Maybe a Pioneer DV-47ai offering SACD and DVD-a or a Sony XA777-ES with Tube output mod.Looks like the Sky is the limit at your place!! Wow !!Is thi... |
