| unclassifiable, original music, and impossible to define in simple terms... You have sent me down a rabbit hole | |
| What is your most fond musical memory. The day I succumbed to my friend's relentless endeavor to convince me to go see the Grateful Dead. He bought me a ticket for my birthday and told me I was going if he had to knock me out and toss me in the trunk of his dad's brand new Mercedes. So... | |
| Hegel V10 phono with Technics G1200 Cadenza blue An update of sorts I received a Whest three signature yesterday. I hooked it up last night and left it on overnight. This morning I listened to some Bob Dylan and Randy Travis MOFI vinyl. I bought the Whest used for the same price the V-10 cos... | |

| Hegel V10 phono with Technics G1200 Cadenza blue I use a V10 with an Ortofon Cadenza Blue MC on a Thorens TD-1601 TT. I tried a JC3+ and frankly like the Hegel better.

| Cardas vs Cardas vs Shunyata interconnects A year ago I auditioned $6K worth of Venom-X cables. The audible difference/improvement was like buying a new piece of electronic gear. Needless to say I kept all of those cables. At the time I was using Rogue M180s, Rogue RP-7, Focal Kanta No.2s,... | |
| Looking for an Amp Replacement I am a Pass fanboy so...I have seen 2 Pass Labs 150.5s for ~$3K. THIS one was refurbished by PL before the pandemic. $2900 but offer less and see if seller bites. | |
| So you just took a gummie...What song is on the menu? @roxy54 No. Some of us had the luxury of not needing to grow up in order to be successful in life which allowed us to enjoy it as it should be enjoyed. | |
| Why Do Cables Matter? Instead of asking this question, which has been asked a hundred times here, and if you want to truly answer the question you will need to listen for yourself so here is my suggestion: Contact an on-line merchant who will allow you to return cable... | |
