| Music you HATE the most but once you LOVED it Add to those already astutely listed: Tangerine Dream Roxy Music "What did the Deadhead say when he ran out of drugs?" "Man, this band sucks!" | |
| How is Mid Fi defined? ...it cost less than your car....you wife doesn't ask why it has to cost so much and take up so much room....mp3's sound just fine....playing it has no noticeable effect on your electric bill...you feel no need to upgrade anything....the speaker w... | |
| Downsizing and child proofing first-time mothers often invent paranoid fears, which no amount of rational argument can affect, but other than putting on tube cages and making terminals inaccessible, the idea that a stereo needs to be "child proofed" is absurd. It's just a sill... | |
| The CD player is dead....... In a group that generally believes in tiny differnces in the sound of a single resistor or wire, I am puzzled by claims that data from a hard drive equals data read from a great cd transport. Data has to get onto that HD in the first place. Measur... | |

| Which Telefunken 12ax7 if you've reached the point where you care about and can hear the fine points of such tubes, only listening in your own system can answer your questions. | |
| Which hdtv would you recommend and why? find one which reproduces 100% of the NTSC color spectrum. They are scarce; most tv's only reproduce around 70% of the available colors. Like high-end audio or marriage, you don't know what you're missing until you experience it, then you're done ... | |

Sell the Ear (they go for $800 or so here), and with the money you would have spent on the cinemag, you could affo... | |
| Meridian G-08 or ProAc Response TriTower Upgrade You need a new DAC, it's your limiting factor, and you'll be prepared for a computer based server, when you get around to it. Use the PD-65 as a transport; I've used one forever. The rest of your system looks very nice. | |
| Got $1000...how should I spend it? Bose is considered excellent by those whose lives are contolled by WAF. | |
| Acoustic/Classical guitar. Who is your favorite? Michael Chapdelaine. Won the national fingerpicking championship on the steel string, and is a classical guitar professor at UNM. Incredibly musical Bach pieces and amazing arrangements of pop tunes.Jesse Cook, for nuevo flamenco. like Otmar Liebe... | |
| Review: Merlin Music Systems TSM-mmi Monitor Bobby, I apologize for verging into a rant. I understand that Merlins are highly highly refined designs, and well regarded by many people. I meant to ask how the floorstanding Merlins can be considered cost-competitive. | |
| Review: Merlin Music Systems TSM-mmi Monitor It's nice that you are happy with your purchase. I can not get my mind around the Merlin value proposition; they seem grossly overpriced, for what they are: $11K for a two way using a dynaudio tweeter and a small woofer/midrange? With a a bass boo... |
