| Balanaced Power Tech v. PS Audio Thanks Bob! I did poke around a bit on forums, will do a bit more.Kitchner: On BPT's website, they claim to have started a relationship with Equitech.I also note that BPT is located in Defiance, MO, just a couple hours from my home in St. Loo. How... | |

| Brandi Carlile Good artist, good show, with good covers. (Rockin 'Folsom Prison Blues' when I saw her.) I may like the first album better, esp. 'Happy.'If you like Brandi, do check out Shannon McNally, "Geronimo," and Sera Cahoone, self-titled.jmd | |

| Most Reliable CDPs? Thanks to everybody for all the helpful thoughts so far. I will look very seriously at Esoteric, perhaps the SA-60.I do have concerns about a noisy player-- my Jolida is chattery with many discs, and since I listen often at low volumes, this drive... | |

| Do any speakers image/sound-stage close to walls? I had a similar problem (a small room, not a wife), and settled on North Creek Eskas. They are one of the only speakers I located that are designed for near near wall placement. I suspect they are less speaker than you are looking for, and I think... | |
| bands you truly miss Jimmdavis: After Trace and AM (which both seem to be Uncle Tupelo material), Son Volt and Wilco did not do it for me, so much. I admire Wilco for moving in new directions, while Jay F. seems to be doing the same sort of stuff, but I've tended to s... | |

| Jolida 100 CD Player - No Disk error My Jolida won't read a few discs. Sometimes this happens to discs treated with Shinola that I could previously play. Any ideas on that?I also have a problem with hearing the disc "whiring around" when playing. Jolida attributed it to warped discs,... | |
| Favorite driving music Doesn't this depend on the kind of driving at hand?For example:Route 80 W, Summer, Western Nebraska sunset, nursing a broken heart, just off chicken fried steak at a diner where the waitress called you honey, California not that far down the road,... | |
| CDP Upgrade: Around 2k Used Thanks for imput so far! Sws2: Not a fan of the Marsh pre? I might be hijacking my own thread, but could you elaborate? Do you think there are price comparable options that would present with readily audible improvements? I suppose one option woul... | |
| Bookshelf speakers $2500 or less If it's for near wall, I would look hard at the Norths. I just put together a pair of Eskas,another North "near wall specific" design, which do seem to work very well close to the wall. (No one else I could find builds speakers for that applicatio... | |
| Swan M200 PC speakers??? I have, and enjoy, a pair of M200s in my study ($150 usd, used, here on the gon). They do not play very loud, but I find them to be quite "musical," and I have made no attempt to tweak the basic iTunes software. I expect many would find them to co... |
