| Records that made you reassess your music beliefs Seems lots of these threads sit for a while until somebody new checks them out. Plus it also seems like alot of us Agoners have real lives and don't sit around hour after hour waiting to post...In no particular order but this one first just becaus... | |
| Modern day female jazz recommendations I also picked up "The Best of Holly Cole". Very nice voice, some neat songs I had never heard as well as some covers like "I've just seen a face" and "Alison".I'll probably look for some more Holly Cole too. | |
| Modern day female jazz recommendations Check out Frank Sinatra's Duets I & II, I know he's a he...but this disc has some great vocals with Carly Simon, Patti laBelle, Chrissie Hynde, Aretha, Barbara Streisand, Gloria Estefan, and on it goes, also there's a duet with Jimmy Buffet do... | |
| Modern day female jazz recommendations Not Jazz you say, maybe technically but...If you're just looking at great sounding female vocalists with great music... K.D. Lang with Tony Bennet is awesome and rather Jazz based, There are a ton of Bonnie Raitt songs that are sheer vocal delight... | |
| Power Wedge 1 vs Furman Elite 15 PF I also have the Furman Elite 15. My whole 2 channel system (tube pre-, tube monoblocks ,music server, SACD, and turntable)runs through it, I noticed a big drop to a black silence background that I didn't know could be there. I just wish I could tu... | |
| Integra DTR-7.8 HDMI-Switching, watyya think? Well, it's been almost 2 months in use and it (the integra) is indeed a very good AV receiver.I recently bought a used pair of Maggie 3.6's, they are powered through a set of Rogue tube monoblocks and my tube preamp has a pass through so I can sti... | |
| Integra DTR-7.8 HDMI-Switching, watyya think? Well, nobody had anything bad to say (not that anybody had ANYTHING to say) But I bought it anyway. Sounds very good and it does alot! Maybe too much. By that I mean It can be a bit complicated and confusing to setup. As example, when you try to g... | |
| Yamaha RX-V663BL receiver? OK, Always a bad idea to go see Mark, (My audio dealer/pusher) He has a demo Integra 7.8, sounds like it's the "real deal" What do you guys think? | |
| Yamaha RX-V663BL receiver? Thanks for the input, I do like my Denon, so I looked at the Denon web page. A whole slew of AV receivers!, I'm heading to my dealer now. The units with Sug retails from $350 to $850 caught my eye.Also looked at Cambridge Audio page, anybody with ... | |
| Playstation 3 Blue Ray quality - How good is it ? I have last years 40 gig PS3. I play BluRay at 1080P on my Sony XBR 60" projection (I really wish Sony had released the 70"!)The video quality is excellent, in fact it was considerd the best back then, I now understand the new Denons and the like ... | |
| Is it worth buying an SACD player? I decided to keep the DVD99 because of the SACD. I did get the Music server /CD player operating again. It does have a better redbook CD player than the DVD99 though. Plus being able to hit random play of 3500 tracks is a great way to watch footba... | |
| Is it worth buying an SACD player? Kal, thanks so much!If I get your drift correctly; those LPCM settings have nothing to do with the SACD quality, and it (SACD) should work fine through my analogs, GREAT!However the SACD I bought, Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue" says right on the CD, ... | |
| Is it worth buying an SACD player? OK, maybe it sounds like I know what I'm talking about in my original query, I don't!But FYI, I'm using a tube pre-amp Rogue Perseus in to the tube Rogue Monoblock 150's driving Magneplanar 1.6 QR's.I reread the manual and this is what it says, an... | |
| Universal player - Multi-channel HDMI question? I am by no means an expert on multi-channel anything,and I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn express- sorry little joke there-- HoweverI just bought a Cambridge Audio DVD99 universal DVD player it does have HDMI out, it plays SACD's and it also pl... |
