| What do you have on order RIGHT NOW. jafant ...The Pioneer Elite DV-59AVi DVD player arrived today. It is in mint condition and looks pretty much unplayed. It works perfectly. At $114. it was a steal. I compared it to my modified Pioneer Elite DV-05. The modified one is better soundi... | |
| Snake oil?? millercarbon >>>Yesterday, I finally got around to straightening out the jumble of wires and extension cords I was using for my PC setup. I got a nice ten-receptacle power strip at Lowes to hook everything up. Before plugging everything i... | |

| Jazz listening: Is it about the music? Or is it about the sound? jjss49 ... My cousin turned me on to jazz when I was just a kid. I remember when I really hated Monk. Then one day, the lightbulb went on in my heart and he became a genius. The artists you mentioned are among my favorites and are still my go-to... | |
| Jazz listening: Is it about the music? Or is it about the sound? "If it’s not about the music. You don’t actually appreciate jazz. Stick to Kenny G."I agree. Kenny G's music as presented to the public via his recordings is nothing but electronic, drenched in artificial digital reverb bunk. However, he does have... | |

| What do you have on order RIGHT NOW. I just scored a Pioneer DV-59AVi DVD Player on eBay for $115.00 plus shipping. The seller (100% positive feedback) says it has very little use and plays perfectly. It's non-blue-ray, so I'll be using it to play regular DVDs, and then I may have i... | |
| The beginning of my stereo set up 1jafa OP ...You won't go wrong with the Legacy Signatures. Like all Legacy speakers, they perform WAY beyond their price point. They love tube electronics too, so good choice there as well. The Focus' are great for large rooms but can overwhelm a ... | |
| Jazz listening: Is it about the music? Or is it about the sound? As a long-time jazz collector, to me, it is about the music first. That's not to say that sound quality isn't important too, but in looking at my collection, it contains a lot of jazz history. Back in time, there were some pretty poor quality reco... | |
| Where does it end? Back in the early 80s, I was using a modified Dyna-70 and a modified Dyna PAS pre-amp in my main system. They sounded really good. I was toying with the idea of upgrading the pre-amp. At the time Audio Illusions was getting rave reviews. At $1100 ... | |
