The only thing I can identify on CD is Harrison performs IDCE with Starr live in the Concert For Bangladesh CD.

The Moody Blues - "Seventh Sojourn"
Moody Blues nominated for Rock and Roll hall of Fame this year.   Finally!Make it so! 
No-one talks about Rowlands anymore
My observation is that not many do not talk about a lot of things that used to get a lot of buzz here much anymore. I think a lot of it has to do with increased value proposition these days of more affordable and/or mainstream stuff. Of course eso... 
Why is good, deep bass so difficult? - Myths and their Busters
klh yes room acoustics but more specifically, speaker interactions with floors. Especially suspended plywood floors but most any with any give. Floors often ring like a bell at bass frequencies and speakers transmit a lot of energy to them directl... 
Why is good, deep bass so difficult? - Myths and their Busters
I’ve found out by far what public enemy #1 is in most cases when it comes to hi fi bass performance in most home systems and have cited it in various past posts.Guesses? 
Best wishes for Tom Petty
There is something uniquely authentic and likable about Tom Petty as both a person and artist."Petty’s Peculiar Picks" is one of my favorite music acquisitions in recent years.. 
The longest you have owned any gear?
I bought the Ohm Ls currently in my family room in 1978. The Dual 1264 also in there in 1981. 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Al you are probaby aware one can do their own digital mastering at home quite effectively and  for free with a tool like Audacity. I use Audacity these days to digitally remaster all my audio files I convert from vinyl or tape.  Some ripped from C...

Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what?
Its a very good idea to experiment with placement to get a better handle on the room acoustics. In most cases things are far from optimal when waf is a big factor and that is often tricky to address well with just eqiuipment changes.  
Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what?
I’ve considered Klipsch Heresy or similar Klipsch for use with my Bel Canto c5i digital integrated. Wonderful 60 w/ch Class D digital integrated with all the modern bells and whistles. No tone controls but this amp is smooth airy resolving and neu... 
Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what?
Wolf beyond the bass enforcement possible with corner placement (which can be tweaked with exact placement relative to corners), I find it also works very well with wider baffle more traditional box speakers in particular in terms of enlarging and... 
Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what?
COrner placement with Audio Note speakers is a very good suggestion. A/N corner setups are always among best sound at shows I’ve been to. But guess what? You can do the same corner placement trick with most any good quality speaker (including Here... 
Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what?
That was a big change in regards to speaker design and sound!You should expect to have to tweak further whenever a major change is made.I would probably want to use a tube amp with Klipsch Heritage speakers including Heresy.Whereas with the origin...
