| PMC OB1i feedback I really enjoy my FB1i Signature speakers, but you have to move up to at least the OB1 to get the PMC dome midrange, which is part of pmc's "claim to fame" - but then you have a 3-way crossover. Without the more complex crossover, the FB1i is more... | |
| My most memorable ROCK moment Stevie Ray Vaughan at Fitzgerald's, in Houston. If your standard for "great" is arena rock, you missed the boat. There is no way a great player can really stretch out in an arena. Many times I heard Albert Collins, Lightin' Hopkins, BB King, John ... | |
| Recommend an "adiophile worthy" pen? Waterford makes an excellent ballpoint, nice and heavy, takes a Parker refill. | |
| Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green Bonamassa? You guys need to get out more. | |
| Mesa Baron preamp match I use a Modwright LS 36.5 with my Baron, which works very well. Before that, an Audio Research LS-15, which also worked well. Never tried a passive.btw, if yours doesn't have the tri-tube mod, you should get it. The Baron really sings with EL-34 t... | |
| Musician's Challenges Segovia's performance once left me speechless - seriously, I could barely talk for an hour after his concert - and he deserves considerable credit for popularizing classical guitar in the 20th century - but he was a sorry teacher. As John Williams... | |
| why dsd I have never heard a redbook disk played back through one of the $40,000 - $100,000 digital sources. Based on current projections- which do not include any form of retirement, and a child bound for college - I will never own such a thing. If you h... | |
| Would new speakers---- Kharma Grand Enigma...rather have 1 Million they cost. | |
| Does Any One Know About Music Angel Kt88 Mono Bloc I had a different Music Angel amp. It worked, but it was cheap Chinese, wouldn't recommend it, you won't really get a feel for what good tube gear is all about. | |
| Jimi Hendrix on PBS "American Masters" OP, thanks for the heads up. Watched it, it was excellent.Ghosthouse, agreed, that was most interesting from Kramer. | |
| You know you're an audiophile if-- Audiogon is more interesting than (real) porn | |
| How to meaningfully audition speakers?? a legitimate audition requires not only my own environment and equipment, but a good long period of time. No way a dealer could facilitate this, if the few places dealers still exist in an area near you. So you just have to take your best shot, bu... | |
| Does anyone really need to spend 10k on power You think that's bad, speakers for $250,000 are behind door number 2. | |
| Rega Arm mods-is it really woth t it? I have been down that path. All the upgrades help, a little, but are not worth the cost, and they are virtually a complete loss when you resell it. If you really "must" upgrade a rega arm on your current table, better to get the best Origin Live a... | |
| The Worst Performance Ever - Really could not get through it. don't think anyone really like Sutch at the time, I didn't know anyone who did. Notice that no one in the audience is dancing or doing anything except waiting for it to be over. agree about the lame Who superbowl show. Ex... |
