Norah Jones a tinge short

Good beginner tube amp suggestions
Don't forget Primaluna, whether integrated, stereoor monoblocs, they're excellent. I've got the 6sif you'd like to discuss. 
Tubes at Best Buy. Yes, it's true.
hey sugarbrie: i thought the same thing when i first saw the vincent equipment in the audio mags: a single tube smack dab in the face panel behind a circle glass (i think)panel. i just thought it looked out of place. but what do i know? 
Tubes and light weight bass
Icorem: Just for the hell of it, I replaced (only for a short period) my PrimaLuna 6 monobocks (70wpc) with my old acurus a150 solid state amp (150 wpc) just to see what the difference would be. Besides the obvious immediate differences, I noticed... 
Best short-lived band?
Bauhaus

Freak Me Out
i forgot to mention. two bands opened for skinny puppy on thei 2007 tour: otto von schirach and i think 3 blind mice. the music was extremely weird and will freak you out. so much so, that they border on the absurd. and again, i mean that.love,jorge 
Freak Me Out
SKINNY PUPPY!!!try the last 4 or 5 skinny puppy cds. the last two are particularly awesome sounding. and i mean that. you wonder if these guys are not from this planet.pure sonic scapes and the sounds are not from aroundhere. 
Cheapest Sweetest deal you've found
Genesis APM-1s for $1500.00.Dealer was closing shop.Had to drive to NM from L.A., butroadtrip was fun. 
anyone have the NHT3/4 w/ Primaluna amps? Do tell
Fair enough, Rich.I like listening at moderately loud levels, especially after I've had a couple of glasses of wine.My room is comparable to yours at 17x13x8', but heavily dampened with a big sectional. Sounds like I should be OK. Thanks for your ...

thanks rich. i appreciate your input. i've got the 3s, and considering matching them with either a PL integrated or amp/pre combo. the thing is, i listen to all sortsof music and from what i understand, the PLs excelbetter at vocals than rock, not... 
NHT in Home Theater Setup
I don't know how much of a bass fiend you are, or how big your listening room is, but the bassof the 3s is pretty incredible for their size. I have them, and I forget that they're monitorson stands. Hope this helps. 
Speakers to hang on to for LIFE
Genesis APM1s. I just got a great deal on a used pair. I can't imagine anything being better than these for the price I paid, or even close.
