Jazz for aficionados
That's the CD Ghosthouse.That's what I was speaking of in regard to TV. Everything people think comes from TV, and you can point out a reality in their own neighborhood, and they won't believe it.The TV has won, and I have lost. I discovered a ...

Ghosthouse, the music I've served up, is without a doubt in every one else's collection since they are seasoned aficionados, and that's why I'm most curious about your opinion of this music.If you don't have it, is it good enough to add to your co...

Frogman, thanks for cluing me in from a musicians perspective. While what you say is true, I didn't know who that was on tenor because Bird plays alto as you very well know; do you think you would have recognized Bird?"That new tenor man sure can...

Thank you for that warm welcome Ghosthouse. Maybe you can share that essay you read about AC; as far as TV, the impact it has had on society since it's inception is more than anyone would believe; it is reality, and the reality we're actually liv...

For you Jafant, here is more Miles Davis; this is the first Miles, the original Miles; there are so many Miles Davis's that you would think he might have a "Replicator", Calvin, as in "Calvin and Hobbes" had one.I knew more people that knew Miles ...

It has been so long since I posted on this thread that I was wondering if I should knock on the door and wait for somebody to let me in. Never the less, moving right along, I will share with you some of the hippest jazz of the 50's'.This CD is ti... 
Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable?
I like to see where people's minds are; if they are aware of other important things beside "audio". Although this is not the forum, there are very smart, highly educated people here at "Audiogon". There is nothing wrong with being rich; J.F.K. wa... 
Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable?
This post is for those who are not wealthy. I bought "Speakerlab" speakers back in the day when"Bose" and "Klipschorn"" were considered the big dogs.Klipschorn paid Speakerlab to quit selling kits that were too much like their speakers. I bought...

The first response was quite reasonable. The only difference between his and my own is I would include 2k worth of tweaks, and possibly different tone arm wire if it was feasible.My apology in advance for being one of those who are "littering" th...

Lewm, you ignored the statement "Littered with opinions of those who obviously never owned or heard any similar priced setup"."Litter" is stuff that belongs in the trash can, does it not?"Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on h...

Apparently the analog forum has become a status forum as opposed to what is stated. Notice the statements made by expensive sports cars.This might be a reflection of this society; not only do we worship wealth, but those with wealth expected to b...

mmporsche, Forums become quickly side tracked in addition to being littered with opinions of individuals who obviously have never owned nor heard any similarly priced analog setup. This thread has already become littered with too many "Ferrar...

Rushton, you didn't disappoint; no matter what the rest of the rig consists of, the source is the King. I've never heard anything in that ballpark, not even in the high end salons.I'm sure that table is in one of the Stereophile issues, I'll find... 
Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable?
Rushton, I'm sure I've seen that one in "Stereophile". Since I've got a good movie on pause, I'll complete my post later on. I was just about to throw the towel in on you.As far as I'm concerned you probably can't get any better.Talk back atcha ...

Rushton, mmporsche, did not state that 25K would be the point of diminishing returns, he said he had a budget of 25K.You stated that 25K would not be your point of diminishing returns, and included the OP. I have always wondered what would be suit...
