| Your ship just came in! time to buy new gear..? @oregonpapa Agreed. I'd buy more land. | |
| Your ship just came in! time to buy new gear..? The 'two items' limit is an artificial and arbitrary construct. I do what I want with my money. ;-) | |
| Tooling / Replacement Drivers I'd buy a cheap-o SAE and Metric hex key kits (if they are hex heads) and find out exactly what size your speaker has and then buy a high quality hex driver in that size. I like straight handle (like a screwdriver) rather than T-handle.Are you sur... | |
| Your ship just came in! time to buy new gear..? I'll bite, but I can't bring any special expertise to the table. I'd basically just upgrade with the brands in my current but 15 year old system which sounds great to me.What I'd get:Aerial Acoustics 20t speakersMarl Levinson No. 53 monoblocksAudi... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Don Henley - Building the Perfect Beast. My wife bought it in a used record store while I was browsing 'more serious stuff'. Like new. Vinyl is clean. Very few clicks and pops. SQ is good. Good album too. | |
| Do posters intend to hurt the feelings of other members? @whart : "On discourse and what you like or don't--Make it better. That's all you can do"Amen to that. | |

| Do posters intend to hurt the feelings of other members? @elizabeth if the reason people come here is for the arguments and incivility then you are correct.I'd like to think they come to discuss hi-fi and music. Maybe I'm wrong.Kind of reminds me of the Monty Python skit where people come pay to have an... | |
| Music I would succumb to under torture Pop country makes me sick. Old country I can listen to. alt-country is often pretty good. But take the standard fare at any televised country music award show (I think they have one every second Tuesday) and there you have my list of unlistenables... | |
| So disappointed in today's Americana I'm still not sure what constitutes "Americana" and I don't care much for folk music but if blues influenced music is part of that then check out Martin King out of Greenville, SC. If traditional R&B with an emphasis on the 'B' is Americana th... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @stevecham : Wings never had too many songs I cared for but "Rock Show" is one of my favorites and sounds good loud. | |
