Angriest Lyric/Vocal Edesilva, do you mean the Metal Devil Cokes? Or the Millions of Dead Christians? MDC identified new targets with their moniker as they saw fit, a clever usage. Some p'ed off fellas. | |
Angriest Lyric/Vocal Pantera was a glam/spandex act for many years before they realized that toughening up would help them sell records (if in disbelief, check Wikipedia.) "Am I Evil" is a cover (Diamond Head), not even a Metallica original. Neither scrape the surface... | |

Discounts vs. Agon listings You'll get a warranty, and perhaps dealer help with setup as well. If it were me in that situation, I'd go with the dealer's offer. You will also establish yourself as a return customer for future dealings, should you decide to shop there again - ... | |

Musical Fidelity Xdac's versus older models I should have pointed out that my experience with the XDAC v3 was with the upgrade v3 PSU. Stock umbilical. Didn't do it for me. | |
Musical Fidelity Xdac's versus older models I found the XDAC v3 to have wonderful detail, but on the dry and analytical side, and lacking in the low-end. I haven't compared the XDAC v3 to the other models you mention, but that was my impression of it by itself. It didn't last long in my sys... | |
