| This is Too Funny Vinyl is Still King Good stuff stickman. Seventeen years ago, wow - 27 since the CD was imposed upon us - AND - the format *still* sucks... Fremer actually looks like a regular joe. Dave Mustaine is an idoit. | |
| CD vs. Vinyl My analog source is better than my digital source because I built it that way and because I hate digital recordings. So for guys like me their is no debate. Never has been. I like reading these threads solely for the purpose of free entertainment. | |

| Sun Kil Moon "Admiral Fell Promises" Sadly, Caldo Verde Records didn't think to release on vinyl. Broke down and picked up a used copy on amazon... | |
| What am I missing? Americana? Muzikat - yes I did. The big difference being - in whiskeytown adams was not only songwriter; Caitlan Cary and Phil Wandscher co-wrote. | |
| What am I missing? Americana? Americana? So you're looking for music like Ryan Adams? Why dont you load/run Pandora and create a radio station (Ryan Adams Radio). Listen to it everyday for a few weeks & note what it's genre algorithms return and take it from there.FWIW - r... | |
| Sun Kil Moon "Admiral Fell Promises" Cool. Thanks for the heads up on Admiral Fell Promises. Agree 100% on APRIL (white marble vinyl!) as being a 'go to record at all hours.' TINY CITIES is sweet too.Mark Kozelek's affinity for covers are always highlights - what does he cover AFP? | |
| Logitech Touch vs Duet Of course you could also get a Sonos system and save yourself a lot of grief. Just curious - from what grief would I be saving myself? Anyone that has owned a Duet knows the grief. SONOS is a superior product by leaps and bounds compared to Logit... | |

How far from the speakers is your listening position?I'll go out on a limb and say that if your system is not very resolving and... | |
| Any good equipment racks that are afordable? Tpreaves - that's one good looking DIY rack!I've currently got a $70 Target (the store) rack with various isolation platforms under sources (TT/DAC) that my gear sits on. Sounds great... | |
| Band of Horses ------- Vinyl vs. CD ? It wouldn't surprise me they mastered the vinyl from digital source. For mass marketed music, sadly, this is quickly becoming the norm. If this were the case the CD wouldn't sound any better.Bands that care (have control) master their records from... | |
| New LFD Zero LE mkIV Jtsin67 - give your new unit at least several hundred hours to settle in. The sound will change/open up. With your ProAc's it should sound pretty darn good! Is there an acknowledged "break-in" period for the new LFD.Bigaitch - Most certainly agree... | |
| New LFD Zero LE mkIV The cosmetic design isnt to everyones tastes. This matters not one iota to him. his entire motivation is the sound. Aesthetics are in the main an irrelevance to him.Are you quoting him or making an assumption that this is Mr. Bews stance? If thi... | |
| Logitech Touch vs Duet The Duet is not any better then when it was introduced. You have to be in close proximity of the receiver to get a steady stream of audio. "Buffering" issues are common i.e. songs pause while the stream catches up. If a microwave is 30 ft within t... |
