I listened to the Gryphon Diablo today , what an experience ! I heard the same system with the Diablo 300 and the SF Serafinos. I'm wowed by the sound of the Serafinos, so much so that I "invested" in a pair. I sat there for a good period of time listening to several tracks that I listened to at home the n... | |
Do McIntosh dealers give discount on new models? All McIntosh products went up on 12/01/18. 5% I think was the increase thanks to new tariffs on key ingredients. | |
How good's your hearing Thanks for The levity | |
AudioQuest Niagara 1000 I like the looks of the Niagara 1200 better than the 1000. Sleeker and less bulky. The 1000 is huge. But you are correct, does it function the same. One would think that if it is label higher that is should be better. It not like releasing the... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Today is was Arhoolie's Mance Lipscome on green vinyl, then an old 1960 edition of a fun Butterbeans & Suzie record. About to play An Evening with Mike Nichols and Elaine May for some 1960's humor. | |
Break in blues I can understand the concepts of a break-in period. Makes sense actually, particularly with tubes, which I have. Then again, I have had s many variables with my system that it is hard to isolate the sound changes due to one factor - like a break-... | |
If you could only keep 5 record albums, what would they be? One thing I know for sure is I would pick double or three LP sets. Then I double or triple the listening pleasure. | |
What albums, in your opinion, sound unquestionably better on Vinyl rather than Digital? I love Hope by Hugh Masekela.Just can't understand how the finesse of a fine audio system makes Black Sabbath better. But maybe I just need to try it. | |
Personal vs. Market Values I love good music and quality audio. I have no place in my pantry for Truffle anything. | |
BEST FEMALE VOCAL EVER Holy Smokes! Choosing between Ella, Aretha, Sarah Vaughan? I can't do it. Was always favorable to Big Maybelle! | |
BEST MALE VOCAL EVER Put on some headphones and listen to Robert Johnson sing Dead Shrimp Blues.. WowAlways was partial to some early sides from Luther Allison. Really great voice. Check out the stuff from the Ann Arbor Blues Festival. | |
What is the Best LP Cover Art for you Wall Oh Yes - Forgot that I have the Zappa's Grand Wazoo up there. King Crimson is a good one as is PG3. early Roxy is a great choice as well. Thanks for the ideas. I'm going to add a new row. | |
The current best band in the world? Hands Down my favorite for the past 2-3 years is the Tedeschi Trucks Band. They are Delaney & Bonnie merged with Mad Dogs & Englishman without any of the drugs. Go see them live. They are fantastic. | |
Best Ripping Software Thanks @tom6897. I forgot about EAC. I've had it on my old PCs for years now. You are right that it is the best. Then, what do I use to go in and change the track/title information? That is more of a struggle. |
