| LP that you most hope didn't fly under the radar Do you mean that you hope an album that you have discovered gains more widespread attention?If so, I confess that I couldn't care less once I've found a little known gem. If other people don't turn on to the same album that's their loss. As long a... | |
| ImportCDs Doing it through Amazon does throw the weight of the big company behind any issues. I have found Amazon to be peerless with regard to order problems, whether that be through the main site or with regard to their Marketplace traders. | |
| ImportCDs I've never had need to blacklist them and I have bought, via the Amazon marketplace traders, over 40 items. I do know that people have often complained about them on the Hoffman forum, citing all the same problems as quoted above (unless all the s... | |
| Artists that deserve box sets Pink FloydThis presumes that, at long last, the band would be prepared to at last release some of the rarities that have never surfaced legally. I don't want yet another re-hash of album tracks, probably remastered yet again, or spurious live vers... | |

| Recordings with BASS One album with cavernous and deep bass is the Mad Season album "Above". The opening few notes of the first track sort the men from the boys when it comes to what your system can reproduce. | |
| Best sounding Santana debut and 3rd album I have the Legacy of both and they are very good from an audio standpoint. | |

| 40th Anniversary Aqualung is KILLER I have the redbook double CD and the audio quality is superb - fantastic acoustic guitar sound | |
| Hammond b-3 organ Modern B3 - not sure about trios - some seem to be fluid in that aspectBig Organ Trio (now known as Mike Mangan's BOTBigger than a BreadboxIt depends on what genre you are into. There are literally dozens of 70s Prog albums, especially from Sweden... | |
| Pink Floyd in HI REZ......finally I'd rather have a couple of discs of rarities than another issue of remasters. | |
| How do you listen to new music? I used to listen to it twice in the car to get to know it and then again on the Hi-Fi to see how it sounded, Up until a couple of years ago, unless it was pretty special, it was then consigned to the shelf as another few took its place. I was buyi... | |
| Bass and Treble Dials I forgot to add to my above post - the music opened up and became spacious, the bass was deep and concise and the treble clear and distinct. I also discovered mid-range as well. Where the music was pretty much a wall of sound and tone controls onl... | |
| Bass and Treble Dials It took me a good many years until I found out why "higher end" gear didn't have tone controls. I always assumed that many factors denoted a need to adjust the sound. I then discovered that having built a system with care and a great deal of syner... | |
| is there a best music player on the computer? I have tried Winamp, Real, WMP and Media Monkey. The free versions are all compromised in some way and the sound of none were that good. I recently discovered J River Media Jukebox (the free version) and it's excellent. The view and search element... |
