| Why does most new music suck? I don't think there will ever be a time when kids and old codgers agree on which music is good and which sucks.Better to avoid the term "sucks" altogether. "Not my cup of tea" is probably a more accurate assessment and also happens to sound a lot ... | |
| Does anyone know the news of Kharma Amplifiers Well, I guess I'll scratch those off my shopping list. :^)Actually, that's an interesting show. THe reviewer found faults with most of the very pricey gear there. Goes to show that big bucks does not necessarily translate into satisfaction. Just l... | |
| Why does most new music suck? Goose,Here are some lyrics from a few Zeppelin songs that has raised a brow or two over the years:Whole Lotta Love "way down in side, woman, you need love" "I'm gonna give you every inch of my love"Lemon Song "Squeeze my lemon, til the juice runs ... | |
| Why does most new music suck? "I must admit that I am shocked! No, really, I am amazed that musical drivel like the recording on the link to "Does THIS suck?" can be thought to do anything BUT suck. "The publsihed numbers on the video would seem to contradict that.They indicat... | |
| Bass leaves after amp warms up? Hmm, well I thought i read that Yamaha model to be Class D, but maybe not.Maybe this amp will do better than the last one. I tend to like most Yamaha amps I have heard, but have not heard that one. I hope it works out. | |
| Why does most new music suck? The more I think about it, the more I am convinced oontext largely determines how people respond to music. People relate to music based on their experiences. Its an emotional thing. If it registers with someone, it does not suck. Someone relates t... | |

| Are 45rpms worth the price? For the Doors, I'd try the recent CD re-issues first before dropping bucks on 45 rpm vinyl. I have the latest CD master of "L.A. Woman" and it is definitely worth the money. Few CD remasters I have heard make as much of a dramatic difference over ... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall III with Bryston 4B SST2 / BP17 ? I don't think the Bryston would be my first choice (power overkill perhaps for those speakers), but I have to believe it is up to the task and can be made to work quite well. The key will be teh room acoustics and what is needed upstream to feed t... | |

| Why does most new music suck? That song is used in several recent Les Mills syndicated workout classes. The gym I go to uses these. That's where I heard it. It works great there, it struck me as somewhat unique on first listen, and grew on me more over time, so I downloaded th... | |
| Why does most new music suck? " It certainly has a catchy beat (which would probably tempt me to leave it on if I heard it while driving), and yes, she's a nice looking young woman. On the other hand, her voice strikes me as mediocre at best, the "plot" of the video is not to ... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? "You say that most "good" tables do a good job of spin speed and isolation. I totally disagree."Useless argument. If they don't, then they are not good. Bottom line is what you can hear. I've never heard much difference that I could attribute to t... | |
