Who needs a tuner?
Very Cool Indeed.  Check out some of the African Stations! 
How many audiophiles do you need to change a lightbulb?

Buying three hunderds 2$ classical CD in one week.
Check out the Solti Box of his CSO Decca recordings? 
Disco...yep, I'm going there
I’m sorry, is disco really music? Or is it an electronic creation?  If I want to dance I go see a good blues band 
Looking to replace my (Mcintosh)
The new McIntosh Anniversary Amp, 2152, is a 150 per channel.  I call it a tank but it sounds sweet. A great Tube Amp

@rodman99999 Thanks much for the post and your thinking.  I too would bias toward 45 rpm.  Thinking there must be a reason that they are doing it, otherwise they would put more music on a side of a LP.  Those Discog prices for SF LTD are great.  S...

McIntosh 252 Integrated Amp and a pair of B&W 804 D3's.  Listening to them now and they sound great no matter what I am playing.  The 252 is a tube amp. 
I want to be moved and have the music touch my soul!
If I can can summarize - tubes, LPs, classic recordings.  Sounds great to me.  That is what I do, and I am in heaven.  EXCEPT when I messed up the MC & MM inputs when setting up the system.. :)  Took me a bit of time to figure out why Big Bill... 
Music I would succumb to under torture
Its funny, but I have never been a fan of country music, but since I upgraded my system some of the young women country artists sound pretty good (Margo Price & Ashley Monroe).  BUT, of course, the exceptionally classic music sounds superb (e.... 
Whats the deal?

AudioQuest Niagara 1000
I have the Niagara 1200 on order.  Paid for it in November, and now I hear the delivery is delayed till April. Not sure what the hold-up is. 
I give up on new vinyl
Can someone suggest a good online source to help us Vinyl fans sort between weak pressings, and the true quality pressings from good analog source material?  I would appreciate that.  Thanks in advance.
