| Rega white belts You are all joking right? A TT belt enhancing rega's sound. Gimme a break. No better yet. Send in the clowns.... | |
| Wilco on Austin City Limits Paste magazine is not a credible music rag. There's no such thing really. It's commercial music we're talking about. Ranking JAY FARRAR 98 & jeff tweedy 24, is obviously a misprint.Wilco is better than any "commercial" band out there today exc... | |
| Best Dac with USB input for $1,000 or less The Havana *is* the one to beat in the sub 1K price range. I've not used the USB input (use coaxial input) and the sound is phenomenal as a no digital filter, no Op-amp DAC. | |
| New LFD Zero LE mkIV The LFD LE III was big disappointment for me. I'm not interested in the next gen at all. The mkIV "looks" worse than the LE III!Their design is simply unmoving and the on/off switch on the LFD LE III was a joke (I mean come on a cheap plastic swit... | |

| Tift Merrit on tour ANOTHER COUNTRY was a bit of a disappointment. Love her first two efforts. She's got a fabulous voice, is a very good singer/songwriter and is easy on the eyes. She "stole" SON VOLT's gtr player (Brad Rice) years ago touring - so I've let that go ... | |
| Any good equipment racks that are afordable? I'm of the mind now to buy a cheap rack (sub $100) and put solid isolation platforms (BDR Shelf's) under select pieces (TT/Amp) and call it good. | |
| Nobility Audio Rack Guizu Their furniture does look very nice. I'd be curious to hear impressions from owners/previous owners too. | |
| What decibel level do you listen at? 80-92dB's when drinking and ready for action.65-82dB's mornings, relaxing, chillin'All vinyl all the time. | |
| Jethro Tull questions... Agree with Rwwear - Heavy Horses (vinyl) is the best sounding Tull I've heard. The re-release of Aqualung from Classic Records is not as good as the original release from Chrysalis even tho it's from the original pressing from Chrysalis and presse... | |
| Kimber 8tc w/ Mark Levinson 23.5 and Revel F52 The 8TC's will get the job done nicely. They don't put a hole in your wallet and allow you to enjoy the music. I understand they require 200 - 500 hours of burn in. Or so I've read. Mine are near the 80 hour mark and they sound good. I'll wait til... | |
| Any good equipment racks that are afordable? I bought an Adona SR4 last year after owning a trusty old Target rack for about 15 years, and I am very happy with it. The access to components is so much better, it is very stable, it looks good and the shelves are infinitely adjustable. I think ... | |
| ProAc D Two Speaker Terminal Preferences... Audioconnection - nice call. Bi-wired up with Kimber 8TC's and am rolling with the changes delightfully. It's only been about 20 hours but I'm starting to think bi-wiring is bettering single runs with ProAc D Twos. | |
| I need tunes at work Download and install Foobar2000 then load in the internet radio (commercial free) stations that interest you at SomaFM: http://somafm.com/They have something for everyone... I prefer the Drone Zone and Space Station at work. | |
| Has anyone tried the Shunyata Diamondback PC? I had the Diamondback in my system for over half a year. Things I found not to my liking:1. The IEC connector doesn't fit snug in lots O' inlets.2. It's way to stiff!Ultimately, I noticed no difference between "it" or the stock pwr cords on my DAC... |
