| Looking For Best Headphones No such thing as 'the best', just 'what you like the best'... | |
| Music Direct and my recent exoeriences I've bought gear from Music Direct - I think they're fine; never had any problems and everything arrived as it should when it should. I've also bought used gear from the Music Room, and I've been happy with them as well... | |
| Aren't you sorry you missed out on this one? It's already sold out! LOL I like seeing things like this even though I'm not buying; it's interesting cross-marketing and it's good business practice. Nothing wrong with wanting to sell more of the product you make. Whether the aesthetics appeal to somebody, well, that's w... | |
| How important is the pre-amp? When I added a Herron Audio tube pre-amp to my system, it was an immense change, and all for the better. I had been using an MSB DAC into an MSB power amp, but now I've got that DAC running into the preamp, which in turn runs into the power amp, a... | |
| Are Quicksilver power tube amps in the same league as VAC, VTL, BAT, ARC, ...? I've got a Quicksilver tube headphone amp, and for the money (under $1000), it is excellent!! Sounds great and very well made.... | |
| Free Shipping - Be Careful! No love for DHL? ;-) | |
| Bob Matthews What a great job he did with the Dead's sound; so sorry to hear that.... | |
| Out of Their Wheelhouse Genius Ministry - "Twitch"; going from synth-pop to industrial metal.... And then there is King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, who re-invent their sound with pretty much every album, and often within songs on the same album. And they do it all really wel... | |
| Commander Cody Sorry to hear that. I was never a big fan of that genre, but I did get to see him and the Lost Planet Airmen at my college gym back around 1971.... | |
| High End Headphones And HP Amp. I have Focal Utopia and ZMF VO's, along with Hifiman Susvara. I love the Utopia and ZMF (I use tube headphone amps - I don't care as much for SS headphone amps), but Susvara is almost in another league altogether. | |
| Who will soon be going to a live concert? I have some friends who went to that Residents show at the Castro! | |
| Hearing Aids and Music I've been wearing hearing aids for about 20 years now, and wow, did my hearing of my sound system improve IMMENSELY after that; sure I've lost some high frequencies for good, but I'm also getting some with the hearing aids that were not coming thr... | |
| FZ documentary a winner Thanks for the reminder!! I've been meaning to watch that since it came out, but keep forgetting! 'Fascination with explosives'? Was he Ronnie or Kenny? | |
| RME ADI-2 fs DAC: Not Loving It I got an RME and I never even used any of the many adjustments; I like the sound of it better than that of the Hugo 2, which costs twice as much. And I agree, it IS rather neutral and dry; seems to leave the 'character' to the amp. But I've since ... | |
| Demos - To Charge a Fee or to Not Charge a Fee? I wonder how many times somebody has walked into a dealer and asked to audition half a dozen or so full-range, big, heavy, loudspeakers, taking a great deal of time and effort for the dealer, only to be told "I like that one - now I'll go online t... |
