Terry Evans and the Blues
Try Olu Dara on Atlatic records. "In the wold" is his best & "Neighborhoods" his newest both are HDCD. 
MANIC Pop, Funk, Soul, R B and R R
Try Coco Montoya " Suspicion" on alligator records & Jimmy Thackery & the Drivers "Sinner Street" if these two can't get you moving it's time for the paddles.

I agree with Cornfedboy that " Hard Times In Babylon" is an excellent album. If you like that try Jess Klein "Draw Them Near" on RYKO & Les Sampou, self titled on Flying Fish records. All 3 are excellent albums & if you like singer songwri...

Eva Cassidy's No Boundaries is a classic case of a producer with his idea of how an artist should sound & as a result that " magic spark" that is unique to that artist is subverted. Paulwp you are correct in guessing that the album is terrible...

Personally I think Eva Cassidy's, Live At Blues Alley is her best. No Boundaries produced by Tony Taylor is her worst. 
PS Audio Lab PC s /ini lab PC s any good
I just recently got a mini lab for my subwoofer which is amplified. The amp would run hot if I was playing at volume for an extended playing time causing it to shut down. It looks like the power cable is helping it to run cooler. I got the mini be... 
How would you rate your listening room?
I forgot to rate my room on the above submission. I give it a B+; I can't in all honesty give it an A because I Have 2 large windows at one end of the room & glass will vibrate. I am waiting for my better half to get some drapes which should h...

Good Sub for Martin Logan ReQuests, Help
I have a pair of Quest Zs which I wanted to run without a sub but there just wasn't enough deep bass. I tried a B&W, I had a Mirage in for awhile & sold that. I went to a REL Stadium II & after spending some time dialing it in I am ver... 
Coping in an Age of Uncertainty
I have been wrestlingwith this issue myself. I recently purchased a 65 inch 16x9 HD ready TV. On DVD playback my Panasonic didn't look too good. I needed progressive scan so I was in a Circut City & they had a demo JVC Xv-723 for$450 so it was... 
Suggestions for Cables all with Krell
I agree with Bill. I have a Krell300cd, KAV250A amp with a Sonic Frontiers Line 3 between them. I am using Synergistic Research Resolution Reference all around including power & speaker cords. I had Cardas Quadlink 4 before & got a very ni... 
synergistic cables?
