| Would you buy a subscription to Zappa ? I had the privilege of seeing FZ live many times and yes, every time they played a song it sounded different. I heard many different versions of Black Napkins, Peaches, Tinseltown Rebellion, Broken Hearts Are For Assholes, Bobby Brown, Zoot Allure... | |
| Best headphones you've ever heard/used Hi,I enjoy my Senn 600's at home and work, but they are not practical to travel with. I tried the Ety's and they did not fit my ears at all, they hurt and did not seal the canal properly so I returned them. I now use Grado SR60's when I'm travelin... | |

| TV's... what does the typical audiophile have? I have a bunch of televisions, which is suprising since I have no use for the dreck on public television and I never, ever watch movies. I read a lot and of course listen to music constantly. My family likes TV and movies so we ended up with a wha... | |
