| Movie/film suggestions. @slaw As a Clint Eastwood fan, I always liked "Bronco Billy". Clint tells his girlfriend he’s been to prison and she asks "What for?" Clint says "I shot my wife because I caught her in bed with another man." She says "Why not shoot him?" C... | |
| Buyer Beware There is no "Black Magic" about USB cables, they either have 2 or 4 internal wires. They can be easily tested with a multimeter for continuity. There is no special resistance or impedence, only other possibility is earth, are the cable ends showi... | |
| What bass-litmus-test music do you take to auditions? Surprised no one has mentioned "The Fish" by Yes from the Fragile album or even "Live with Me" from the Rolling Stones' Let It Bleed album. Use the SACDs | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? See the Boss has gone into meltdown with his Chronic Trump Derangement Syndrome, over in the UK. He should write a new song, Smuggled into the USA. Bless him. | |
| Need help with Aurender N20 @rick_n I have found with the N20 that you really need a good AES and USB cable if you are going to take advantage of DSD. I have read that the May has a great DSD section. The N20 is a fantastic machine and I've found or rather heard no degrad... | |

| Calling all Eggleston owners Andra III crossover | |
| Do most people prefer tight bass or non tight bass? It should sound like a bass instrument, guitar, drum etc. neither tight or sloppy but a musician should be able to hear what notes are being played or even what type of bass guitar it is. Not sloppy bass with tons of distortion. Dynaudio are not ... | |
| Calling all Eggleston owners Yeah gotta listen to the wife! I still have a pair of original Fontaines with granite sides which are still going well 20+ years, purchased ex-dem. Andra III's again ex-dem, blew the tweeters and the resistors on the crossovers. The crossovers a... | |
| Genesis SEBTP (hate the Battle of Epping Forest) & Nursery Cryme are their best. When Gabriel split the "Real" Genesis fans followed his solo career. The Collins era was pop, and seen as a sellout, his only saving grace was Wind & Wuthering. Hat... | |
| Favorite Tribute Albums? | |
| Purist 35th Anniversary compared to Purist 25th Anniversary Since your question hasn't been answered I'd be very sure that the 35th anniversary will sound better. | |
| Help! Pre amp turning on by itself. Besides there being a ghost in the machine it could be your mains power dipping and then returning to full power. This happens to my preamp. Remove the power cable or switch off the preamp using it's power switch. Ghosties and ghoulies can't get... |
