| Couple good finds for repairs in Chicagoland area Out of the blue I had no sound. Some sort of regulator went bad. As the unit is 8 years old I also had them replace the laser pick-up as a few SACD's were defaulting to the cd layer. All for under $200. Pick up fixed the defaulting problem. Anyone... | |
| Iphone App for tuning your system in the room Try audiotools app. Free SPL and RTA meter, and a lot of others that are not free. | |
| Stones "On Air" PS - the deluxe set includes a second cd which is not in the same league as the first in terms of SQ or performance wise. Might want to pass on the deluxe unless you are a Stones junkie. | |
| Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits "Missing... Presumed Having A Good Time" by Mark & a bunch of his old school chums who call themselves The Notting Hillbillies. Both of those are country flavored, but very well done."imho this is one of the best non hi-rez cd's I have from a ... | |
| Any NPR Tiny Desk Studio Concert.... lovers ? on youtube +1 on Joan's take on Slim Harpo's Hip Shake. Awesome jam. Would love to see her live, never gave it much thought before hearing/seeing Hip Shake. | |

| ProAc 1 SC vs. ProAc D1 Hi, given your experiences with ProAc monitors, which model would be a logical choice if I were to replace my Response D15's due to moving to a smaller room. I'd like to keep the same basic sound of the D15's. Thanks for any opinions. YBA amplific... | |
| Is Spiking Necesarry? I run ProAc D15's and use Herbie's Gliders with the stock spikes. Happy as hell - they slide with ease on the hardwood floor. Soundwise - a little tighter bass but you have to adjust the spikes to keep them rock solid to the floor. No movement at ... | |
| Any Imelda May fans out there Love Imelda, waiting for her new album from the library. Sounds interesting (no pun intended).The Rock and Roll Party with Jeff Beck DVD is stunning as is her performance. She can sing. I actually prefer Love Tatoo over her other CD's. | |
