| Best blues today When in doubt, tell the story in the worst light possible. A great American preoccupation. Hello CNN. Hello Fox-News. Face it, the rock and blues artists (and all other performers for that matter) of our youth are aging, as we are. B.B. King does ... | |
| Anyone bought Speakers from outside U.S.A.? Yes, I did. From Canada, but that's where I live. You didn't want to know that. Oops! Sorry. On a more serious note, I would be leery of sending money overseas and I would be leery of getting large used speakers shipped. If some escrow arrangement... | |
| How to Judge an LP Hm, hm TWL you make the whole used lp thing sound soooo appetizing! I bought my first lp in over a decade (possibly a decade and a half) the other week (Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, Caravan, a German import on ZYX, originally a Riverside re... | |
| Anyone ever repaired a smashed dome tweeter????? I was a long time Thiel owner and stuff happens. There are usually no ill effects if the only damage done was that the dome was pushed in, once you pop it out with a piece of tape. I know that when one reads here how you can perceive while listeni... | |
| Equipment Break-in: Fact or Fiction Geez nobody answered my questions, I still want to know: 1) does break-in stop after a while or is the process continuous such that the component will sound only better as time passes; or2)does it reach a plateau that goes on forever;or3) does it ... | |
| Out on the tiles...with speaker spikes. Coins are good and almost invisible, use Canadian coins, very well made but way cheaper, each one will actually cost you 0.157349 USD at today's exchange rate. Hockey pucks are good but highly visible. Try it without any spikes, you may not hear a... | |
| Your ONE all time favorite love song? "Quand on a que l'amour" Jacques Brel. | |
| 3 Brit players around 2,000 retail-which wins? FMJ CD23 (T if you like) or the Naim CD 5. | |
| Senior Audiophiles - Audiophile since the 60-70's? I refuse to accept that I am a senior. Period. Full stop. The end. Best decade? Way back when people were not so neurotic about a record player. Bring back consoles, have the whole damn thing hard wired, listen to the music, and let's stop the cra... | |
| Why is the standard tonearm cable not good enough? Boy I love to hear the sweet sound of "buy more records instead"! How much anxiety can be injected into listening to music? To fret over whether one of the better tone arms available can be made better with a new cable is JPN. Relax listen to the ... | |
| aurios isolation and espresso Benny, are you or have you ever been at any time associated with Brita filters, or any of its principals, subsidiaries or affilited companies or with a virgin? Come clean now. Endorsements should always come with such a declaration, sworn to on th... | |
| aurios isolation and espresso Have you got any science to back that up? How about DBTs? Do we have to spit out like in wine tasting (disgusting, if necessary habit, I guess). If not, I am not sure that caffeine saturated testers may not go at each others throats. I have long a... | |
| very disappointed about my system setup Cranky as all hell, I guess. Sorry, I had promised myself that I would refrain from commenting on tt/vinyl. I shouldn't write too early in the morning or too late at night. I still find vinyl noisy and continue to scratch my head as to why, on bal... | |
| very disappointed about my system setup Viridian, Paradigm shift? For the edification of all concerned, care to explain what this means in the context used. Bluebottle, maybe your longing for vinyl is simply based on nostalgia? Maybe your disappointment is tantamount to the shock of mee... | |
| Bryston amps VS the rest... too clear and neutral? There you have it! To some ears "dull lifeless sound, veiled", to others "a little thin and not very involving", or how about "essentially reproduces accurately whatever is on the recording", or how about "grainy and a bit harsh". Take your pick. ... |
