| When will rap music be less mainstream? Can we switch to a Blues discussion then? My first live music event was Koko Taylor off of Maxwell street with my father's best friend and my brothers as a teenager. Still the best music I have ever heard.We went to the same place a few weeks late... | |
| When will rap music be less mainstream? Dark-"Dude from the Matrix"I stand by my point, and it's still right on. You make it sound as though these bands denied the connection between themselves and the blues greats. They never did, that.I never said they did not emulate or anything else... | |
| When will rap music be less mainstream? He actually sued them over "Whole Lotta Love" and they settled it with him as soon as they found out about the suit, it was in the late 1980's. The reason it never went to court was their respect for him, and also the fact that the song does sound... | |
| When will rap music be less mainstream? Bongo-Furious, didn't mean to get in your pocket. Obviously from your very selective response you must deal with these people everyday. If you are/were involved in any of those "songs" you mention with Pdiddy/Mac/Combs/Daddy, I'm sorry you've obvi... | |
| VPI Scout II vs.Scoutmaster I haven't owned the Scout II, but I have owned the ScoutMaster Sig, and even with the upgrades, it did not perform anywhere near as well as the Clearaudio Performance, same cartridege, and was not in the same league with the Classic. So, I suggest... | |
| Want to Blow Up My Stereo OK, now looking at all of the gear and researching it a bit, with all of the modded gear you have, could it be a problem with one of the outputs to that channel, either on the preamp or the amp side (although this is easily checked and I'm sure yo... | |
| Want to Blow Up My Stereo You know, I had a similar problem with my phono stage for a short time, and I was going to send the Pre back to Cary when I too realized I had rolled the wrong tube into the wrong slot on the phono section. I had the 12ax7's on one side in the 12a... | |
| When will rap music be less mainstream? Darkmoebious, you are dead wrong on that. Be it Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, or even Elvis Presley, all of the early rock 'artists' who with the exception of Elvis in that group, wrote their own songs, and my God PLAYED THEIR OWN... | |
| Want to Blow Up My Stereo you guys are complicating this, no need for explosives, a 90 year old fully automatic submachine gun will work fine | |
| Speaker placement for the rear HT ceiling is fine, they fire so seldom it really doesn't make much of a difference. If you play surround SACD's or DVD-audio, then it can make a difference, but for HT, some ceiling speakers are fine. | |
| VPI Scout II vs.Scoutmaster it's a better turntable than the Scoutmaster, at least it was in my system, and it didn't need all of the upgrades to make it sound good.I would suggest that you also look at the Clearaudio's in the same range. I would suggest a Sota as well, but ... | |
| When will rap music be less mainstream? I don't think they are embraced at all, I think they are pushed on kids. Why is retro music so popular still? Because the record companies don't have a clue as to what people like any more.We never listened to 20 yr old music in the late 70's to e... | |
| Want to Blow Up My Stereo Hollow point bullets, slow moving ones, so I would say a Thompson SubMachine gun. They are normally chambered for .45 ACP rounds, so those should work. If you place all the equipment close together it will be more fun. Also, if you take it to a lo... | |
| When will rap music be less mainstream? It kills me when the Rappers call each other "Artists", that's just rich. Especially when so much of the music behind the rhymes are sampled from great R&B and Rock songs.They can call each other, "Authors" of some pretty catchey and interesti... | |
