| Tubes/SS Power Amps? Phaelon, I'm well aware of what you were speaking of and class AB probably sounds as good as A, and runs much cooler. Class A is too extreme as far as heat is concerned, and I wouldn't have one. After all is said and done I'll probably end up with... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "A Night In Tunisia", from the LP, "The Cooker" by Lee Morgan, has to be the most fantastic version of that jam ever. It features Lee Morgan on trumpet; Pepper Adams, Baritone sax; Bobby Timmons, piano; Paul Chambers, bass; and Philly Joe Jones, d... | |
| Jazz for aficionados While Paquito wasn't "Afro Cuban", it was still music that had a Cuban flair, and I'm thinking about ordering it. Dorothy Donegan's "Boogie Woogie" was historic and interesting as well.Say "Lena Horne", and I think "Stormy Weather"; yes she was ve... | |
| Tubes/SS Power Amps? When there were such places as "High end emporiums", I spent so much time in those places, that my wife swore I was seeing another woman; she couldn't believe that I was obsessed with "high end sound". This was at the same time I began to subscrib... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Charles1dad, after going on "You tube" I placed an order for "Big Bags". In regard to the sonics, your credentials as an "audiophile" are well established.Enjoy the music. | |

| Audible Illusions 3A vs Belles 28A Why would you go from tubes to SS? | |
| A good amp for Tannoy speakers I'm using PrimaLuna mono blocks and my speakers have a 92db sensitivity, and I'm quite satisfied. Yours have a 93db efficiency; I don't think 1db will make hardly any difference. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Etta Jones, one of my favorite singers, was never married to Houston Person, although they had a very strong musical bond and friendship.I bought "Don't Go To Strangers" in 66, and it has many personal memories, I still have that LP plus a new one... | |
| Most expensive piece of vinyl you acquired is? I've just gotten back into vinyl in a big way, and I don't want to spend a lot of time looking for used records; can somebody give me a "heads up" on the various qualities of new vinyl? | |
| Dr.John I'm a long time fan of Dr. John, I'll have to get that. | |
| At What Age Does An Audiophile Buy His Last Amp? It seems that only older audiophiles who are blessed with good hearing can appreciate exquisite sound and music. The best software, meaning LP's are also required. The very same music, and LP's that have been in my collection for ages, sounds so m... | |
| Jazz for aficionados While Rok and I disagreed on the sonic qualities of the music in that bargain set, we absolutely did not disagree on the absolute qualities of the music. This music belongs in anyone's jazz collection who considers himself an "aficionado". I have,... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Whether ah is or is not, we gonna git back to da music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Maybe I should join "EAA", that stands for "Extreme Audiophiles Anonymous". After putting such people down, I've discovered that "Maybe I are one"?This is a "jazz" music forum, and the music Rok recommended is some fantastic jazz.Enjoy the music. |
