| Nik Turner - Rest In Peace So sorry to hear that. I got to see Nik with the original Hawkwind do 'Space Ritual' back in 1973, with Lemmy and Stacia still there, and then 'Space Ritual' again with 'Nik Turner's Hawkwind' a number of years later. RIP indeed.... | |
| What Gear Has Disappointed You? @gavman - from what I've heard about big Klipsch speakers in reviews and such, their defining trait is most definitely NOT 'epic bass'. Tight bass, sure, but not wall-shaking. I think it was 'criminal' of the dealer to misrepresent the speaker if ... | |
| Disappearing Jazz? Rock and Roll disappeared? News to me - I keep seeing new bands and hearing new music. I do like some rap and hip-hop too, and I'm 71 years old. I suppose a lot of country artists don't realize they morphed into something else, 'cause they still... | |
| Dan MacCafferty of Nazareth R.I.P. Oh no. I'm sorry to hear that. RIP Dan.... | |
| Hearing aids for audiophiles? I wear behind-the-ear hearing aids for 2-channel listening and in-ear hearing aids for headphones. | |

| Whats the weirdest concert you ever attended? @jeff4598 - interesting you mention Jeff Buckley - one of the weirdest concerts I was ever at was Jeff Buckley at the Brainwash in San Francisco. The Brainwash was a laundromat that had a small room upstairs where they would sometimes put on music... | |
| Solid state to tube @emrofsemanon - probably not. I'd think you'd be the only one who could decide that as everybody else will have varying opinions which may or may not line up with your response. There are no 'absolutes'. Find someplace where you can listen to t... | |
| Most underrated female recording artists.. Popularity is objective, artistic merit is subjective..... | |
| Solid state to tube I had a Quicksilver tube headphone amp, and a fine amp it was; I replaced it with an Eddie Current that cost 3x as much. Highly recommended, and I'm sure his speaker amps are excellent too; check out a few forums about them. | |
| Pleasurably better, not measurably better @pinotnoir - Agree! | |
| System that sounds so real it is easy to mistaken it is not live Nope.... | |
| Diagnosing inadequate bass in an audio system. @amitb - seems to me that the best educating as to what the best bass should be for you should be done by your ears and your brain. Nobody else can tell you what sounds best to you, and if it doesn't sound best to you, who cares what somebody else... | |
| The character of analog and digital 'Vinyl captures much more of the original event'? The only ones who capture anything from the 'original event' are the producer, engineers, etc. The recording sounds how they want it to sound. No reason why good digital shouldn't be as good as goo... |
