| get vinyl rig or audio aero capital "However" is the operative word in the previous post. "IMHO" is also of prime importance. Try and set up a side by side comparaison of the Audio Aero and analog front end you are considering. Play the same recordings in both formats. Use a variety... | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? The equation between high-end audio equipment and loving music is absurd. No more, no less. Many people love music, a good number even make music for a living, and don't give a fiddler's fart about high-end audio equipment. Many people with a mega... | |
| I need a female jazz vocalist. No Krall, No Norah Lizz Wright. | |
| your favorite violin or fiddle cuts, and why? Natalie McMaster, "In my Hands" on SACD, the cut "Flamenco Fling" is a favourate at this time, but favorites change don't they? | |
| How do you get past the pops and hiss of LPs? Motdaturd, seems your apologies are not addressed to the right person. Every fact that ever there was is tortured by subjective audiophiles, be they vinylists or proponents of digital, to the point of being unrecognizable. As I have said and repea... | |
| How do you get past the pops and hiss of LPs? TWL and co: talk about selective logic. All this dubious stuff about hearing through LP playback noise or that the noise is in another plane and does not take away from the enjoyment of the recording. What you had to begin with is a candid questio... | |
| How do you get past the pops and hiss of LPs? My poor reputation having no doubt preceded me, I will refrain from commenting on this provocative topic. | |

| Do You Remember Your First Music Purchase? Geez The Platters "Great Pretender" was an album I found in the refuse closet near the incinerator chute in my apartment building, years and years ago, along with some Duke Ellington albums. Probably played The Platters a hundred times. Knew just ... | |
| Do You Remember Your First Music Purchase? Try as I might, can't seem to recall when I first used money to get a record. Do hand-me-downs count? If so My older sister gave me "The Sound of Jazz" that she got from the Columbia record club and one of my other sisters gave me "Highway 61 Revi... | |
| When does SACD make sense - my theory Usual trendy analog/vinyl can't be beat line. I don't spend my time comparing the same recording on different media. I don't own the type of equipment that the previous poster owns, but one thing I can say is that my $200 CDN Sony SACD player soun... | |
| What Is the best pair of speakers under 3k?? You mention Thiel. Why not give the newest Thiels, the CS 2.4s, a listen with your own familiar recordings. Every new model Thiel brings out is reputed to be their best up to that point. Having heard some of their earlier models, I would think the... | |
| Any one else has a problem re: shipping damage All packaging should be kept for inspection by the claims examiner. The hill you have to climb is getting way steeper. Good luck. | |
| Do you really need ultra expensive cables? No. | |
| Ok this will be a good thread. Stevem 1960, nice to hear someone with a sense of perspective on things audio. I have no idea of your age, but that may very well be a factor in your views. The source first notion, while appearing logical, is flawed in that it is based on the pre... |
