| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time Bluegrass owes much to its Scotch-Irish roots. Jigs and Reels and Shanties. Stephen Foster, Scott Joplin, Robert Johnson, Jimmy Rodgers, Maybel Carter, Woody Guthrie. (does rap owe a connection to his protest music?) All American shoulders from... | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time Saw Jorma Kaukonen last night with Dave Bromberg. Excellent "country blues" . Check out Jimmy Rodgers for understanding of true country. Merle Haggard did a tremendous album of his music btw. Bluegrass does not have drums. Alabama and Garrh Brook... | |
| Streaming Services Innuos is what I use for a streamer with their external power supply. Like their free software with upgrades. Customer Service has been great and I have ripped my 1031 cd's to it. Very much enjoyed getting that done. Tidal for music but listening ... | |
| Innuous Zenith Mk3 and Phoenix vs Esoteric N-05XD New car syndrome? The sound improvement will be marginal and the new software will have its own quirks and irritations. Buy a stand alone dac. | |
| What is the current retail cost of your reference system? @ebm I have come to love your posts from the town of Succinct on the island of Sardonica. | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? But tastes change. Important to continue to give it a listen from time to time. Dylan could be considered the father of rap if you like. Right now listening to I Want to Dance with You...Prine meets Strait. All sorts of cross-pollination going o... | |

| Is R.E.M. underrated by new music nerds? Someone above said they were always political. I would counter that most great rock n roll is inherently political. But please please don't go have the rails. Grab your wife's Ambien. | |
| It was 61 years ago today... I watch Ed on free TV about 2-3 times a week. He got a bad rap. Though not sure rappers would have worked for him. A lyric too far. | |

| The best plug in filter ever! Some folks just got better ears than l. Much better. | |
| What is the current retail cost of your reference system? Not trying to start a Cold War of spending . Or any sort of comparison contest. Some come here to upgrade or improve their sound so wouldn't it be helpful to understand the costs associated? A silver cable will not improve the sound of a $500 re... | |
| What is the current retail cost of your reference system? The question makes perfect sense as most folks own Sonos, Bose. Home theater, receivers. In that context discussions of cables and even speakers have little relevance. | |
| What is the current retail cost of your reference system? About $18000 for mine with about $800 in cabling. Again this is current retail. Virtually everything I own is used. |
