Mozart Fans Only Renee Fleming... just did the national anthem at the SB the way it should be done, maybe for the first time ever there. Maybe there is hope.... | |
Hi-Fi Fuses - SNAKE OIL? - or something in it? Geof,Unfortunately, whatever the facts may be about fancy fuses, it doesn't make the crap you sell any more credible. But keep on trying, you never know. | |
Something similar to Mahler "If you say so Map. About like saying you need some rat-poisonto top off a yumpous piece of NY cheesecake to me."Rat Poison - way less calories, sugar and saturated fat. Mahler - Pine Nut Roll, perhaps?:^) | |
Dynaudio contour with 30 watt amp There is good 87 db and not so good.More power and current = better 87 db with dynaudios.Tube amps best apply elsewhere. | |
Something similar to Mahler We need rock music like Captain Kirk's yin needed his yang in order to function as he should in that old Star Trek episode. | |
Something similar to Mahler Hearing a good complete Mahler 3rd live is high on my list of things to do.Heard the musical box genesis cover band do a complete repro of suppers ready a few years back. Heaven! | |
Mozart Fans Only I'll agree with Schubert's assessment of Schubert's music. | |
Something similar to Mahler Schubert, you are on a roll today putting Mahler and rock music in the same boat of ne'er-do-wells, eh?Oh well, at he is in GOOD rock music company.Mahler 3rd is unmatched on its turf in my book. Nothing else sucks me in as deeply as quickly and t... | |

Marantz Pearl Lite for LS50, or.. "Also, as I'm totally new in this thing, will a pure Class A tube amp with 18 Watt sufficient for my room?"Good quality small speakers with extended bass, like these KEFs, tend to have very low efficiency and all like power and current, the more t... | |
Speaker imaging Plastic Surgery may be in order for the TRUE audiophile.Look good, hear great.....When the women start flocking around though, to hell with this silly hobby! | |
building a system around dynaudios? Its true, Sphinx delivers a lot on paper in a small and affordable packages, and I have never heard any Rogue gear sound less than very musical (I have heard various other integrateds and amps, but not SPhinx yet), so I am a big Rogue fan when it ... | |
building a system around dynaudios? Have not heard either amp, but regardless the Dynaudios will like the additional power that the Class D hybrid Rogue has to offer. If it were me, I'd go with that over the Rega as a no brainer based on the published specs. The Rogue tube hybrid de... | |
