The River and the Thread. SQ is breathtaking. Sarah McLaughlin. Mirrorball Sarah Jarosz. Build Me Up From B... | |
| Those rare albums that are great on first listen. @pooreboy +1 on Petty. All his albums sound different but great. I was gonna list Wildflowers as maybe the best recording. Shadow People is one of my "Test" songs when evaluating changes. | |
| Those rare albums that are great on first listen. A reissue of 12 Dreams would be a real treat. It was my favorite trip back in the day and is one of the few psychedelic albums I still listen to. Ear candy. | |

| Audiogon Seller Communication Maybe Agon should institute a time limit for shipping. If seller misses it, buyer has option to cancel and get refund. | |
| Cool running, low powered power amp I've used Duct fans to get more AC into distant rooms. | |
| Cool running, low powered power amp Parasound A23+ is under $2k, Class A/AB and has a powerful but warmish sound. Used probably ~$1000-1200. You might end up keeping it. | |
| Insurance for system Lloyds will insure just about anything of value, for a cost. But maybe just a rider on your homeowners delineating all your audio stuff. | |
| If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments? Very few residential rooms have any positive "room sound quality". The improvements with room treatment has as much to do with reducing "room sound" reverberations that distort the sound coming out of the speakers. This is really more important th... | |
