| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Ghosthouse - I am familiar with Ulrich Schnauss. I have A Strangely Isolated Place from 2003. It has tracks of similar style to those you linked to above. I like the "A Long Way to Fall" track the best (of the links you provided) | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Ghosthouse it is gratifying that you took time to make to all those suggestions, really. The Varese stuff is pretty ground-breaking to say the least. And I have to say that it reminds me of Prefuse 73 some. I like all the different layers and in... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Had a great listening session yesterday. I started out with Mum Finally We Are No One. This is not their best effort, but pretty fun nonetheless. They are a bit like Sigur Ros so that may give you some reference.After the mellowness that is Mum,... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Ghosthouse, yes plenty of overlap. I really like Tycho. I've heard Past is Prologue and thought it quite good but could only find it as an mp3 download so I passed. I would really like to have it on CD.Did you mean Zero 7? I have the CD Simple Thi... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Yep, Pokey is Gumby's green-horse companion. He's also one of my birds. He is sitting with me now.Information Retrieved is not as good as the other two I mentioned earlier though it is their most recent offering from 2012.Toy Matinee is 90s progre... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Ghosthouse, so glad you gave Pinback a shot. The first song I ever heard by them was the credit music. I don't remember which movie but that doesn't really matter. I must have watched the credits at least five times. My wife wondered what was wron... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report I originally read this thread at work! And it motivated me to have some fun this afternoon. First up was Pinback, blue screen life. I have just discovered them in the last three/four months. I can say this is one of the best records I've heard in ... | |
| Hard drive for Oppo 105 and Sonos Thanks for all the comments so far. -I do not want to leave my computer powered on all the time. I'd rather just have an HD or NAS that can do the duty. And I want to make sure that my music is backed up. For me, I won't even start the project if ... | |
| Hard drive for Oppo 105 and Sonos Buffalo drives have been mentioned. What do you think of them? Also, was thinking of two identical drives so I could back the primary drive up. How would you do it?Finally, looking to spend less than more $$. That is kind of the lure of this, seem... | |
| I need a new TV So, I went by and made a deal with my local dealer. Magnolia never got back to me. Unfortunately the dealer had to order it and it won't be here until next Tues/Wed. And probably next Thursday since Wednesday is the 4th. But now its just the wait.... | |
| New tv? Cool. Can't wait to hear your thoughts. | |
| I need a new TV To clear up my previous post. The dealer is providing a no-cost initial setup and calibration with a DVD. Then a month later they will do an ISF calibration: cost is $300. So, I called Magnolia and asked if they would meet the dealers deal: Sony $... | |
| I need a new TV I appreciate the comments. They have made some good points and given me a few ideas. I went to a dealer today after work that I had not been to in five years and after listening to my needs, the sales person recommended the Sony KDL55W900A, same a... | |
| Has anyone bought the OPPO 105 and has an opinion I'm totally loving mine (Oppo 105). I bought it to do Blu-ray and it sure does that well. So much better to watch movies on. And it is also much better than my Redbook CD player, the Cambridge 840C. To me it is fast, neutral, revealing, and sounds... | |
| Thoughts from THE Show, is $29k the new $10k? Just for reference, I did hear a number of rooms playing open reel (RTR) but none of them were even close to the MBL room. As mentioned, they were playing Hugh Masekela's record Hope in the MBL room. My friend bought it after the show and shared i... |
