| West Coast Blues +1 on Tonny Castro and Ronnie Earl. Great choices. How about Robbie Laws. Studied under Earl I think. Very similar. Plays Portland and Seattle quite a lot. | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers I'm by nature a pretty open minded person but I gotta ask what the fans of "five guys" are smoking? expensive soggy and so greasy the bag looks like it got hit with a garden hose. This has got to be one of the great marketing stories or our time. ... | |
| Advice for friend putting together a surround sys. if he can stand to do it in chunks he can do source/amp and fronts, later add a sub, then add center and surrounds. takes longer but you get a better system and get to enjoy along the way. | |
| good amp for peachtree era 14 I have mine in a music HT setup with a pioneer sc07. I have heard them with rotel receivers (1560?) and it was very close to the sc07. I demo'd them with ayre SS amp and it was very nice. I hesitate to compare to the sc07 (in terms of characterist... | |
| Best bookshelf for House Music may be reaching but to me house music says "party" and party says lots of people moving around and the party world is not focusing on high fidelity and or listening to good recordings. How about some wall mounted (up out of the way) active monitor... | |
| Best Solder?? Tpreaves: dont feel bad, I'm still trying to figure out why it's not spelled sodder. | |
| ERA D-14 0r D-10 I listened to both quite a lot. I wound up with the D14's over the D10's. to me and forgive me for my description, the 14 was fuller in the midrange and seemed to intergrate as a whole better. THe 10 just sounded a bit off to me. Crap answer, sorr... | |
| Peachtree iDac reliabilty? loosely related. I have a era d4 center speaker with a DOA tweeter. Note that this is the same group and all are under the peachtree name now (or maybe signal path...who cares eh) and I can say that I called my dealer and expected a replacement tw... | |
| static charge quick check. swap speaker cables and see if issue follows. sounds like it should but.....they switch outlets if possible. see if you can confine to your amp by component swaps. if amp........? repair I guess. | |
| Compairson ground rules....should we have them? one area that may lend itself to some ground rules (good luck with enforcement) is that you only comment if you actually heard the item in question. More than a few responses are puked up-rehashed-read it and want in on the party, stuff. | |
| Will a quality USB cable make a difference.... I had a chance to listen for quite some time to a dealers setup (he used me as a guinea pig) while switching between a cheapo, decent computer(gold plated connectors) and a high end - ish 125$ cable (all 3 foot) linking a iMac to a ayre qx9 dac, a... | |
| Opinions on a good HT/Music AVR joe this may be slightly contrary but I would suggest you pick the cheapest Yamaha, denon, onkyo, whatever that has a reasonable featureset (be honest about what you must have vs nice to have, make sure the remote works for you, and let rip. they ... | |
| Do all CD players benefit from burn in? Having just finished my system (added cables) I wondered this. I use my wife as a guinea pig as she has better hearing and no idea what stuff costs. We both have found that any a/b comparisons suffer greatly after a few days (maybe less) and we ar... | |
| Apple TV without TV maybe a dumb question. could poster run a mac mini (use a monitor for setup) and setup android? or ipad remote, remove monitor and go for it. attach monitor as needed for whatever? | |
| How can I connect my TV to my Mc130 man had a serious army flashback with the MC-130 bit. felt just a little motion sick there for a minute! |
