| Laid back, mellow, sax/jazz Anything by Ben Webster, particularly with Art Tatum and Oscar Peterson. | |
| Audiogon Grammys Dave Alvin and the Guilty Men, "Out In California" a killer live album of great songs. | |
| Ok this will be a good thread. Definitely cables! ;) | |
| Timbre TT1 DAC I woned this DAC for a while. It's excellent, very warm, liquid, and musical. It also doesn't shortchange you on detail. Build quality is excellent. An all around super DAC, especially at used prices. I believe there's one on here now for 645, a s... | |
| Overrated & Underrated Tenniswino,Dunn is sold through regular distribution channels, I work for a fine wine wholesaler in DC. There also is a mailing list. It really shouldn't be that hard to find, the market for high end Cali wine is really drying up. | |
| tube preamps c-j Premiere 14. There's an auction for one right now, they typically go gor about 2K and are remote controlled and fairly compact in terms of height. | |
| Overrated & Underrated Cpdunn99,Contact Dunn directly. If Illinois allows direct shipping I'm sure they'd sell you some. If not them probably many internet merchants would as well. Try Winebid.com, there are often great auction deals on high end wines. Good luck! | |
| Building a system for a friend...Please Help If they're willing to buy used you could probably find an ARC CA-50 for around 12-1300 and plenty of excellent used CD players in the 7-800 range. | |

| Overrated & Underrated Tenniswino, We're definitely far apart on politics, but to each they're own. As far as wine goes, I agree with Montelena, Forman, and Dunn, but not Caymus or Silver Oak. If you can, check out Von Strasser, Kamen (very small Sonoma Mtn. producer), ... | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? If I'm allowed two, I'd have to add Bill Frisell. | |
| Overrated & Underrated Tenniswino, I have to ask, Silver Oak, Reagan, and Celine Dion was sarcasm wasn't it? | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? Jerry Garcia | |
| I am looking for a smoothest sounding outboard DAC There's a Timbre TT1 Dac on here now for $645, which is a steal. An oldie but a goodie, and super smooth. | |
| What preamp for my Shahinians? I think you'd be wiser to divide that 6K between a new amp and preamp. You could certainly do a lot better than that Rotel to drive your Shahinians. Maybe a BAT tubed pre and solid state power amp combo might be good. I'm sure others will have sug... |
