Gallagher has passed away.
roxy54   Couldn't you just have kept that comment to yourself?  A very nice thread offering great respect to a good person, and you have to go negative.  That's what is partly wrong with this world; people who hide behind the anonymity of the inte...

Steely Dan Catalog on UHQR Vinyl
I've done that Cat Stevens comparison.  And that is exactly why I buy a good number of reissues of my favorite albums.   Once in a while they turn out to be a let down.  The vast majority of them, however, are excellent.  I am a good customer of A...

Nice music being spun, guys.  I've been in the mountains and not at my sweet spot for music.  Good for my body, though.  Tonight is my High School 50 Year Class Reunion.  No music at home but should be a real hoot of a night. Have fun!

@spiritofradio I played side 2 of both of my copies of Pink Floyd, Animals, today.  I must have been thinking of another album when I said that I thought it was on the bright side.  I found the original copy (an early pressing, right after it was...

Audio Rack Opinions
@thr1961 I have the Symposium Foundation Ultra rack and speak testament to it.  The solid 6061 aluminum legs, tied tightly to each of the constrained layer levels (or, shelves) makes for an outstanding rack system.  To really make it at its' best ...
