| The Audio Gods are tough but fair-Have you had the "Curse of the 300B" ?

| No love for 70's guitar bands? I'm with lowrider and stevecham and was lucky enough to be exposed to lots of great music back in the day.Journey,John Denver,Bread,etc. were pleasant enough but I gravitated towards more interesting(to me) music.Any love for Frank Zappa? | |

| What define "musicality" ? And what constitute "musicality" in audio ? We inherited a Telefunken table radio from my husband's grandfather.Gorgeous,euphonic,and "musical" sound .Our main system is of course truer to real live music.Totally different but "musical" .They both stir within each of us a profound emotional... | |
