| What time do you wear? .I wear a Longines modded with tubes. Not as accurate as a solid state watch, but the time it keeps is warmer that solid state. Lots of air and detail when it ticks.. | |
| Why Do You Still Have Vinyl if You Don't Play it? .1.)Im lazy: I don't want to lose any of the music, but don't want to take the time to transfer it.2.)

| Why Do You Still Have Vinyl if You Don't Play it? .Just to put everyone back on track again with the original post. I was asking why do you still have vinyl if you DON'T PLAY IT. The intent of the post was intended for those who have pretty much given up on vinyl and play digital 99% of the time.... | |
| Why Do You Still Have Vinyl if You Don't Play it? .Mark, you may have something there. I remember when the first iMac came out, it didn't have a floppy drive.

| Why Do You Still Have Vinyl if You Don't Play it? . I also offered the records to my 21 year-old daughter. She was nearly offended by my offer.

| Does the ARC Ref5 sound better than Ref2/3 ? .I think the Ref3 is an incredible preamp. I've had it for about four or five years now. I refuse to even listen to the Ref5 until I can afford to buy one. I don't need the aggravation of lusting for something that I can't afford. So, if I don't h... | |
| Audio Research Reference Linestages .I've had the Ref 3 for about four years. I can't imagine a better preamp. I don't dare listen to the Ref5 or the 40th Anniversary models because I'm sure that I won't rest until I get one if I hear them.I've owned the SP9, LS-10, Ref1, and the Re... | |
| Partly cloudy, with a chance of ... .I think it has a silver lining. Once it's implemented, then constantly improved and perfected, it will become the standard. ...And as Liz said, you will like it. Technology marches on...relentlessly. Orwellian, yes, but it's already too late. The... | |
| What the heck is bias anyway? .Thanks for the reply Atmasphere. I really would like to try tube amps, but I'm not mechanically inclined at all. I'm a plug and play kind of guy, which is why I have solid state amps. I'd consider tube amps as long as they don't require much fidd... | |
