| Favourite Guitar CDs If you don't mind strectching your imagination a bit, I think you'll find true gems from the Spanish-influenced players. Paco De Lucia can probably be credited with resurrecting flamenco in the 60's. 'Sirico' is a little known gem of a CD. Also tr... | |
| Neutrally sounding CDP with a good resolution? Consider the Jupiter2000, very musical (and on the warm side but not overly so) yet significant resolution. Can be found here on the 'gon used for about $1k.I also have an I5 in my system with JA RM7si sig monitors and Zu Cable Julian (bi-wire sho... | |

| Headphone I can stand for more than 1 hour I couln't be without my Sennheiser 570 at work! listen for hours at a time...very comfortable, great sound. | |
| Joseph Audio RMsi MkII vs MKI I suspect you will only be able to discern a real diference in a side by side audition/comparasion. I have a MKI version and do not feel the need to upgrade since I am pleased with the sound. | |
| Good DVD Concert? I liked the Train DVD , recorded live in Frisco. I also was very excited by the U2, check out the Rattle and Hum concert film released on DVD as well. | |
| I need a female jazz vocalist. No Krall, No Norah Lani Hall, an amazing, natural voice; recorded with sergio mendes & bradil66 in the 60's. sure, some of the arrangemnets sound 'cheesy' by todays standards, but it was the 'style' back then. | |
| Names of Bands... interesting topic! anyone know where mott the hoople came from? | |
| Which speaker is better Haven't heard the SE25, but did have the opportunity to audition the new Dynaudio 1.4 against the B&W 805 signatures. Power provided by Cary amp and pre (can't remember model #'s) and source was top of the line Cary player. For my taste, I fel... | |
| Where do you draw the line??? I never draw lines, but I do change pencils once in awhile! | |
| integrated tube reccommendations just curious Jcbach, but your link sent me to 'Applied Thermodynamics' site. I hated Carnot in college!To all others, thanks for the suggestions. I was considering models from Rogue,Cary,Manley and now Unison, Audiomat and VTL! Anyone direct have ... | |
| Better than Norah Jones...? Yep I like Bebel, too bad about that first cut on the disc...along those lines give a listen to early Brasil66, Lani Hall's voice is what Sade's has always wanted to be. Not to slag Sade 'cause I think she blows norah outta the water. not very imp... | |
| Good Classical discs for "beginners" In contrast to others, I feel that a good (emphasis good) complilation is wonderful means for introducing beginners to any musical genre. For classical, there are two fine recordings from the RCA Red Seal series: Romantic Violin and Romantic Cello... | |
| which monitor for audio refinement int. amp? Joseph Audio RM7si or Tyler Acoustic Taylo refs both about $300 more or less above your range, but a significant improvement over midline B&W's IMHO. I pair my JA's with Jupiter2000 and I5. Love it! |
