| WHAT IS THE MOST TOUCHY SONG THAT YOU HAVE EVER HEARD? Madame George from Astral Weeks - Van MorrisonWicked Game - Chris IsaakNight Swimming and Rock, both on Automatic for the People - REMMoon River - Mancini and Mercer, the demo tape. It eclipses every other version of the song by miles in its simpl... | |
| Complete Proprietary Systems Thanks guys. Good to know. For the record, I'm not looking for anything, I was just curious.I'm assuming I was correct in regard to why you don't see many people, here at Audiogon anyway, with full proprietary systems?The Linn systems are intriguing. | |
| Complete Proprietary Systems Thanks guys. Great info. | |
| Excellent Speakers for Classical Music - $2,000 USD Budget There is a pair of Aerial Acoustic 6Ts on eBay for $2500. | |
| Old Amps that can still Kick Butt @atmasphere said: "Most of the amps listed here will sound fine at low volume. But if you want to blast they’ll get painful. The mark of a good system is one that sounds smooth and detailed (not brightness masquerading as detail) even at high v... | |
| Best bang for buck integrated amp for $500 I have the NAD 316 BEE. Got it used under $200. I got it for down at my cabin for casual listening. An excellent unit. Simple. Plain. Well reviewed. Great sound stage even with a pair of equally modest Polk Audio towers. Use it all the time for c... | |
| Old Amps that can still Kick Butt Maybe not 'vintage' but I still like the way my Madrigal Proceed HPA2 drives my similar era Aerial Acoustic 7B towers. They need a lot of horsepower and the Proceed seems to deliver.But my breadth of experience is....narrow. Regardless, I feel no ... | |
| Do you have a "Music" Friend? No. Not when it comes to serious listening. My wife will occasionally be in the room when I’m seriously listening but she is usually reading and barely listening.We enjoy listening to music together but not in the audiophile sense. Music is playin... | |
| The Black Keys - Delta Kream Great article. Thanks for the link. I never saw Junior or RL but I've seen some of their kids and grandkids play at the Juke Joint Festival in Clarksdale, Mississippi. (I lived in Clarksdale as a child). My wife and I go to the Juke Joint Festival... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Khruangbin - Mordechai, good stuff. Style/class of its own. But I like their middle album, Con Todo El Mundo, better.Also listened to The Black Keys Delta Kream recently. That stuff is right up my alley since I’m already a Junior Kimbrough and RL ... | |
| The Black Keys - Delta Kream Listening to the album now. I knew it had Junior Kimbrough covers but there are also R.L. Burnside covers. Awesome! I have not researched titles I don’t recognize and don’t know if some of these songs are originals.I don’t really care. The Black K... | |
| Jazz for someone who doesn't like jazz. @stuartk and @franklinb66 Thanks. I will look into those as well. | |
| What are you streaming tonight? A thought about this thread: I check here often to look for new music to listen to. I like Qobuz but it sucks when it comes to recommending stuff based on your previous listening. As far as I can tell it does not have that feature at all and I mig... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? @ovinwar, I have found some of U2's later recordings to be that way, in particularly Achtung Baby. Sounds fine in the cars or MP3 w/ ear buds. Can hardly listen to it on my main system.Right now, listening to Art Blakey - Moanin' | |
| Classe' Sigma SSP. Is it outdated? It did finally sell. I don't remember how much I got for it. The money went to the estate. |
