| Where to buy Eva Cassidy's Song Bird LP in the US I've phone Blix Street last Thursday before I posted the question and they told me they never had it. | |
| Where to buy Eva Cassidy's Song Bird LP in the US Sorry, guys, if I didn't make myself clear. I knew where to buy and already bought the CD. But it is the vinyl that I am looking for. | |
| Does anyone know who makes/sells... There are a lot of snake oil products out there and the cable towers certainly sounded like one. Some people swear by them and someone (who are normally more honest) simply couldn't tell any difference. | |
| Anti-skating: how to set Hi, SDCampbell, You forgot the say HOW to set anti-skate using the blank portion of the LP. In other words, what to observe when the anti-skate is too high or too low?I personally use the Shure V15 LP myself. However, since the LP was poorly press... | |
| Good & Bad quality recordings of SACD's? I am, too, confused by Madisonear's comment unless he has a totally revamped CAL Icon that is SACD-capable.I am using Marantz SA-1 for both SACD and CD playback and own roughly 30-40 SACD for the moment. I tend to agree with Myraj that SACD qualit... | |
| Boy am I glad no one bought my albums Frank, you're 90% right. The Mercury Golden Import is nice indeed which I also have. However, the original works is much much better when I heard it at my friend's house. I first saw a copy at Tower Records in 1980 which I unfortunately couldn't a... | |
| Boy am I glad no one bought my albums Bach's unaccompanied cello suite is highly sought after by everyone but none of the audiophile labels ever reissued any. The most sought after performer is Jano Starker. Unfortunately, chamber music is not popular among audiophile labels. 90% of t... | |
| Audio Research PH-2 Phono Stage Once again, Jafox's comment of PH2 proves one person's poison could be another's roses.I do, however, agree with Jafox's impression on PH3's forwardness. PH3 is by no means a very spacious sounding phono-stage versus, say, the Reference Phono or A... | |
| Simply Vinyl...why the bum rap? I second what Blackie said. Simply Vinyl simply doesn't produce consistently high quality products. All of their low price items were priced so low for a reason -- they suck. On the other hand, the full priced items - e.g. Santana Abraxas and Eagl... | |
| Boy am I glad no one bought my albums Okay, point taken, Ramstl.Instead of trying to sell them, you should perhaps buy a few more classical LPs such as the Speaker Corner or Super Analog reissues. If you like what you heard on Chesky, you will be totally blown away by really good Decc... | |
| Audio Research PH-2 Phono Stage PH-2 is by all means the worst sounding phono amp ever produced by anyone despite its original high price tag ($2450). It has only 48dB gain and you cannot adjust the load. It only supports XLR in/out. Worst of all, it sounds rather poorly. Edgy h... | |
| Boy am I glad no one bought my albums I am not sure if you really love those records, but you sounded pretty sour to me.No one bought your albums for a very simple reason - they are over-priced. $20/LP is only fair if someone can pick. And evan that is debatable based on your list. Th... | |
| Franklin Mint LP records Alexc knows what he's talking about.Franklin Mint can be found almost everyday on eBay at dirt cheap prices. $25/LP only exists in someone's mind. I'd even consider $2.5/Lp too steep since Franklin Mint has little or none collection value unlike t... | |
| hopeless LP's I can assure you that if you find these well-cleaned LP less than desirable while playing on your current system, chances for them to sound much better is next to none on a state-of-the-art system. However, if you collect for the sake of performan... | |
| Careers in Hifi About 15 years ago I was considering starting a career as a new/used hi-end equipement dealer while I was in graduate school pursueing a PhD degree in electrical engineering. It made perfect sense at first since I could enjoy the music, play/revie... |
