45rpm pressing of Fleetwood Mac Rumours
I got my 45 RPM copy two days ago. I also have an original pressing I bought in 1977 that is in great shape. IMO, the new album blows away the original in every way - dynamics, sound stage, warmth, detail, etc. Psycho-acoustics? Am I hearing what ...

Jennifer Warnes fans?
I have mixed feelings about Jennifer Warnes. I'm not a huge fan of her performances. Don't get me wrong, they don't suck...they just don't move me. On the other hand, I have a huge amount of respect for her production values and attention to detai...

mcintosh ma 6600 vs rega osiris vs nad m2
I could listen to my 6600 24/7. You just never get tired of it! I've heard the Rega and while it's a very respectable amp, there's no comparison to the 6600 (YMMV).
