| How can anyone afford this ? Raquel, from your Blackberry deal obsessing Avery Hall seat are you really qualified to talk about the majority of New Yorkers? I lived in Manhattan for 10 years and there was music everywhere and most of it was cheap to moderately priced. | |

| Funk Essentials - Under The Radar My fav P. Funks are "Mothership Connection", "Uncle Jam Wants You" and "Gloryhallastoopid".Would also recommend the Ohio Players "Honey" and "Fire".Although Sam & Dave and Wilson Pickett were both funky, their music wasn't funk. It's all about... | |
| Mac sound quality Apple computers have been used in professional audio recording environments for more than 20 years. Apparently some people can figure it out, some even did way back in the last century. | |
| True Analog LPs versus Digital Recordings Unless the recording is specifically labeled as all analog you should assume at least one digital stage in production. | |

| Most Beneficial Cable Upgrade A very simple version of this test would involve a CD player with a digital output and one of the DSD capable HD recorders from either Korg or Tascam. The CD player will digitally output to the DSD recorder and the test will be of three different ... | |
| What is the best power cable under $200.00 retail? At a minimum try the Volex 17604 at around $12. The Iron Lung Jellyfish at $29 is also well respected as an effective low cost cord. If you want higher quality, then Mitch2's DIY suggestion is the way to go. Great bulk cables will run $10 to $30 a... | |

Here's the reason I got it.I had a friend who lived on E. 93rd and when I visited him I always checked out the BMW with the Earles fork parked on the sidewalk a house down from my friend's. Winter comes and the ... | |
| Most Beneficial Cable Upgrade Okay, I'll give it another try.In your 1/25 post, the one that ends "ha, right...", you use half of the "paragraph" writing about using tape decks, I think you're actually referring to cassette decks. Why? I never mentioned using a tape deck for a... | |
| Most Beneficial Cable Upgrade I'm sorry, I thought I was talking with an adult. My mistake. | |
| Considering analog...but nervous That crack about labradoodles was way out of line!If you go down to your local druggie hangout and ask the crack/meth/heroin/pill popping dope fiends if you should give it a try, what do you think they will answer? Do you think they have your best... | |
| Most Beneficial Cable Upgrade Pcoombs, you don't need a microphone for your comparison. The room and the microphone add too much coloration and don't add anything positive to the comparison. Simply plug the power cords into an amp or preamp and record thru the tape out circuit... | |
| Why the obsession with the lowest octave So Dan_Ed, how about an explanation of your mathematically derived harmonic content? | |
| Most Beneficial Cable Upgrade The power cord thing is confusing. I just installed a set of DIY power cords on my power conditioner, amp, preamp and D/A. The cords use CryoParts CryroMax3 cable and low-end Furutech connectors. Parts costs is about $150/each which roughly equate... |
