| Jazz Music Question dsper, many of the newer artists and recordings suggested here may be good jazz, but they are not "more of the same" as your Cannonball album. The "closest" was already suggested, the ubiquitous "Kind of Blue". Other similar recordings will be ... | |
| Looks like PS Audio has a hit on their hands with the new speaker yoyoyaya, about that rounded bottom design, I wondered if they come with a plumb-bob to verify they are set up vertically. ;^) Seriously, it looks very awkward to me. I agree that round surfaces belong at the top if utilized. And no, I've not ... | |
| Auditioning The Fyne 703 Soon mulveling, it's obvious that you appreciate the sonic presentation of higher end (Prestige) Tannoy designs. I never owned any but I do as well. A few years ago there was a Tannoy dealer in the San Diego area. Our audio club had a meeting there ... | |
| Auditioning The Fyne 703 Soon mijostyn, sorry, I misread your earlier comment as "10 to 20 Hz", not 20 K Hz. So my comment made no sense at all. Then I compounded the problem by copying your description, while again missing the K. Us old folks need to read twice before replyin... | |
| Auditioning The Fyne 703 Soon @mijostyn, not to be argumentative, I'm really curious about this. You ask about "from 10 Hz to 20 kHz at your listening position". How many speakers produce anything audible in that range? And if they could, what instruments have fundamentals ... | |
| klipsch cornwall iv upgraded crossovers eon, thanks for the further background. I can believe you’ve discovered better performance from where you started. And of course that whets the sonic appetite for more. ;^) I was not familiar with The Boston Audiophile that MrD suggested. So I we... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frog, interesting point about instrumentalists studying or reciting lyrics. I never gave that much consideration before, but it makes sense. Simply playing the musical lines of a song can allow improvisation. But knowing the lyrics should allow... | |
| klipsch cornwall iv upgraded crossovers eoj, you've heard discussion about upgrades to the CW IV crossover? I've read a number of favorable reviews of the IV, saying Klipsch mainly revised the crossover from the III. If you have the IVs they must be nearly new since that was just intr... | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw, old? I saw Louie Armstrong and The All Stars live when I was 10 or 11. Probably not many here in my age group! frog, my subconscious solves many things for me overnight. Without that I'd be even more lost. ;^) Here's an earlier performan... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Thanks frog. I've never been a major fan of big bands, but the TJ&MLBB is one I enjoy. And it was fun watching Thad direct in that video. And that reminded me of one of my favorite Monk albums - | |
| Pet Sounds: Most Overrated Album of All Time? lonemountain, "work of all originals"? Hardly, the lead song, "Sloop John B" goes back to 1916. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sloop_John_B And I remember the Kingston Trio releasing it in 1958. Not to detract from Brian Wilson's contrib... | |
| Dunlavy SC IV Speaker- Any Good??? chorus, as always with purchases the choice is up to you. But please consider these two points. #1, I can't imagine ANY Sony receiver producing the potential sonics of that speaker. During the 19 years with my Duntech Princess I tried several w... | |
| Dunlavy SC IV Speaker- Any Good??? chorus, hopefully this may help some in your now continuing search. I'll say upfront I don't agree with all the comments made here. But then this is the internet. ;^) I owned Duntech Princess for 19 years. That tells a great deal about how I f... | |
| Jazz for aficionados acman3, your succinct reply to my question about brevity was appropriate, so I saw the humor in that. But I realized I should not have included a simple album posting. Those typically seem to either answer a previous question or offer a recommen... | |
| Jazz for aficionados An honest question: When aficionados post only the name of an artist or album, what is your intent? Are you simply reminding us of that person or album? Are you recommending them/it? Are you looking for discussion about them or it? I'm simply... |
