Eric Clapton at Crossroads Guitar Festival DVD
I watched a good portion of that disc and I like the JJ Cale, Joe Walsh, and especially the Steve Vai parts (where Vai and 3 others stood in a line and played each others frets, fun stuff!I am glad JJ Cale played 'After Midnight' so some of the au...

A friend wants to build a guitar amp that is tube driven.Can anyone recommend a low priced guitar DIY tube amp?probably $200 or so is all he can afford...thanks,Phil 
Lou Reed, Perfect Day?
Pehare is right, there are different versions as I found out when I bought Transformer and it was different than what my local college radio staion played. I do not have an answer for you Pehare but will post if I find it... 
Allman Brothers: Live at the Fillmore East
acclaimed recording engineer Tom Dowd was called in at the last minute to 'save' the recording of Live at Fillmore East which was supposed to be a difficult venue to record in for some reason. Thank you Mr. Dowd is all I have to say about that! I ... 
Audio Note Soro SE Uh Cool
JoeI am building them right now - so hold your horses... For now I still have the Trentes which sound terrific. They are the Kit 2 which will equal the Model E, the only upgrade from the bottom model is Lexus wire on the inside. I am thinking in a... 
Have anyone seen these speakers? Or system?
I want to tow them behind my car!AAGHHHH!!!!! They're chasing me!!!!Thanks for the visual :^) 
Audio Note Soro SE Uh Cool
I do not know about the ASL but I love my Soro SE and yes it has the best bass I have ever heard in my system beating 2 different solid state Plinius amps. I am so convinced that I bought Audio Note speakers to match it. Also, the Audio Note AN-V ... 
Looking for Bass....
BTW in my 13 x 21 x 8 room I used the Cardas method of speaker placement and never moved them after that. I found it the best compromise of imaging, tone and balance. Also, when I had the Innersound amp (which was modified with a much bigger power... 
Looking for Bass....
My Maggie 1.6s had too much bass for my tastes the entire time I owned them. Maybe my room has a node that excites the bass or something. I always thought the bass was excellent on them. I did own a Plinius SA100 MKIII which is a bass champ but tr... 
Top Ten Electronic/alternative Albums
I looked for Fish for Fish too and no luck.Raytheprinter are you really a printer? Do you own a printshop? I am just curious as I have worked in printing for about 17 years and when the shop I worked for closed down I was scrambling to get back on... 
Hi Fi burnout.
Marco,I am far from cured myself. I listen to my main stereo most of the time but when I do fire up my Tivoli radio I often think 'why do I waste my money?' My point was that I do not think a lot of people get the synergy part right. You can have ... 
dear lord, i need help...
My JM Reynaud Trentes have excellent bass and better midrange. 
Hi Fi burnout.
Go buy a Tivoli radio and you might sell your stereo. I am not kidding, when listening to my local college radio station (which has a very good sounding signal) I am very satisfied. Maybe it is because it only cost $100 but it can make you respect...

I need help selecting speaker cables
I like the Alpha Core Goertz MI2 Veracity as the best all around $200 cable. Very sweet midrange, it honors natural timbers and has an immediate quality. Would work well with Classe gear I imagine...
