| How can anyone afford this ? Paperw8 wrote:"Of all the new financial wealth created by the American economy in that 21-year-period, fully 42% of it went to the top 1%. A whopping 94% went to the top 20%, which of course means that the bottom 80% received only 6% of all the ne... | |
| Fritz Carbon 7's vs. Dynaudio 1.3SE Hi Jimmy. You might call Fritz; he can work with you on port configurations that can function closer to boundaries. While the C1 is well liked around here, and I may be an outlier, I'd probably take the Carbon's even if the prices were closer. John | |
| Fritz Carbon 7's vs. Dynaudio 1.3SE Another vote for Fritz and his Carbons. I haven't heard the Dyn 1.3s, but I have heard the C1s, and I don't think the Carbon's are giving up anything like 5k of performance in that comparison. John | |
| The complete Europe '72 recordings Do people have thoughts on which Dick's Pick's are best sonically? I've logged a lot of hours with egregious sounding tapes :)John | |
| Cowboy Junkies Best Songs I like most of the Caution Horses, esp. song #1 and 2 Sun comes up .../ Because it's cheap how I feel. Also from the live double CD 200 more miles song #5 in disc 2: Lost my driving wheel.How nice, Pefstratiou: the first three I'd have mentioned.A... | |
| vinyl in vagas and san francisco Amoeba in SF is a remarkable store. I've not been to the SF store, but the Santa Cruz Streetlight was very good.John | |
| Best Audio Store Name? The Hi Fi Fo Fum in St. Louis treated me to the *worst* retail experience I have had in my life, *by far*, in *any* industry. My understanding is that it is now out of business. What's in a name, after all?John | |
| Mac sound quality Ah, Pettyofficer seems to have a fellow traveler in Nglazer.We've got a movement here! :) | |
| drive by truckers Yeah, 85 bucks a lot; don't think I've ever paid more than 20 for a single disc. Betcha WAUB get's reissued.Here's another rec: Hayes Carll, a Texas twanger directly comparable to Steve Earle. No doubt this is controversial, but I think he's a bet... | |
| drive by truckers Drat, Marty. I think 2CG changed labels (to Suburbanhome) which may have resulted in the back catalog being 86ed.The band has slowly gotten a bit more poppy, and turned down their live shows, which used to give you hotflashes. I see their first re... | |
| drive by truckers Kedoades: Slobberbone's excellent bass player "retired" for a while, hence the Drams. He's back at it, and so is Slobberbone, last I heard. This is a good thing, I think. Drams had most of the Slobberbone, plus keys, as I recall. Saw them once: a ... | |
| Where do I go from Eva Cassidy? Just saw there's a new Eva record, "Simply Eva." Another posthumous rehash, or worth getting?John | |
| drive by truckers Yes Marty, Americana covers a multitude of sins. My favorite in the genre, and at the top of my "in heavy rotation" is not even American: Po'Girl, a spin off of the also very nice Be Good Tonyas. But now we are *very* far from the Truckers.Back to... | |
| DeVore Silverbacks If anyone can make specific comparisons to speakers at the Silverbacks' pricepoint, that would be great.Thx,John |
