| New Records noisy I too am conscious of the problem yet, not completely clear to the cause. Vinyl formulae appears to be part of the culprit. Classic Records spotty issuing frustrates me to no end. There are reasons I'm sure, There is no excuse! Speakers Corner and... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Rush, I too find the Bill Evans very enjoyable, beautiful, in a word. As for the Unique Thelonious Monk set he chose to play cover tunes on this 1956 album. It is a very strong showing with Art Blakey on drums and Oscar Pettiford on bass they roll... | |

| Notice how many SACD collections for sale? I guess I missed out on the last couple of formats as I was too busy buying Lps. Did someone mention Hi-rez? Cheers! | |
| Great Copper Cables? Coincident is an excellent all copper wire. I run them as interconnect and speaker wire with my Atma-Sphere OTL amps and Aesthetix gear. They are very neutral and well balanced. It's probably important to note that I have Coincident speakers inter... | |
| This sucks Pawlowski6132 again, as was mentioned before, I don't think it's the gear. How long have you burned it in? I haven't found a cable or piece of equipment that doesn't come into its own only after many, many, sometimes a hundred or more hours of bre... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Pat was always a thoughtful and kind fellow in these threads. That is how I knew him and will remember him. God bless you my friend. Cheers to Lugnut! Peace | |
| Do you care about the LOOK??? Cwlondon, Found some dirt bag versions of the Rolex in Souel, Korea e tia won dong street for 35 USD but some nice ones in Hong Kong. They were all cheap pin-lever movements though. It was amazing but, not amazing enough for me to own one. Cheers! | |
| Atma-Sphere M60 or David Berning ZH270? I'm with you Rushton in terms of artisans and upgrades in your closing note and thanks for the word on updates. I am certainly not interested in looking for something other than what I own but, was interested in hearing Laoyuap's observations cons... | |
| Do you care about the LOOK??? uhurit@yahoo.com, I would even take a vintage American 23 jeweled Hamilton over Rolex for that matter, and have. I grew up with a father that was a watchmaker and gunsmith. He was always working on pieces of high quality, beautiful hand made thing... | |
| Should a good system sound bad with bad recording? Sure, one could argue that your system accurately reproduced the source material. Would you prefer a system that lied to you by making everything sound sweet, if that was even at all possible?! Happy listening! | |
| Do you care about the LOOK??? Sure. Is someone seriously going to tell me that my Atma-Sphere MA-1 MK2.3 Silvers are not the most beautiful thing they've ever seen? Im an industrial designer in automotive and I find them gorgeous in a retro kinda way. They glow so nicely on m... | |
| Speakers for Linn Classik? Budget $400-500 How about the Epos ELS-3's? Very nice balance of sound qualities and less than your budget maximum, new. Happy Listening! | |
