| New cd player-- or should I get SACD? I bought a used Musical Fidelity A5 player here on A'gon for $2000. Couldn't be happier, it was a huge leap forward in musicallity from my Marantz CD67SE with MF X10D tube buffer. Lot's more air, soundstage and timbre rightness. I found the JPS di... | |
| Review: Intuitive Design/Pitcher Sound Labs Summit PSL 624 Speaker My apologies for jumping to conclusions and butchering the Kings english. Checking the date of the post on audioreview, it appears that Mdhoover posted here at Audiogon first, so presumably someone cut and pasted his review from here and pasted it... | |
| Review: Intuitive Design/Pitcher Sound Labs Summit PSL 624 Speaker Guys: I think we've been had. The section titled 'Specifically' is ver boten the same verbage used to describe the Ohm Walsh F speaker on audioreview dot com.And I was berating myself for being so cynical now-a-days.http://www.audioreview.com/cat/... | |
| Haven't played my LP's in 20 years - still good? You rascals trying to snooker me outta my collection. - Ever try to get an old hippy to part with his records?A fools errand, not a chance, too many checkered memories tied up in them. They're postcards from my misspent youth. | |
| Haven't played my LP's in 20 years - still good? Thanx for the hopefull feedback. I had a rule for years that I wouldn't buy a Cd if I owned the LP. Like all my Rules, I bent the heck outta it, but still have about 400 or so that I don't own on CD. Mostly progressive rock, fusion stuff, a few ha... | |
| Zappa? Guaranteed, if you buy enough Zappa, you'll be offended and/or disappointed, he was all over the place, from do-wop, fusion, classical, jazz and in between.My favorite is Hot Rats, terrific fusion-y without much vocals.2nd choice is where they put... | |

| Gentle Giant Remasters I have a Gentle Giant refigerator magnet, guess I'm a fan eh? Saw them in 1976 at the Tower in Philadelphia, one of my top concert experiences. Picked up Power and the Glory remaster, since I didn't have that one. Wasn't wowed enough with the soni... | |

| Folk/Rock choices that are well recorded A well recorded and excellent album would be Hank Dogs 'Bareback'. Acoustic guitar and twin female vocals in the Fairport style. Second would be the Cowboy's Junkies 'Trinity Sessions' - alot of audiophiles rave about this recording quality, music... | |
| King Crimsom rediscovered Picked up Pink Floyd's 'Ummagumma' recently, haven't heard that in eons, sheez what quality space music, Floyd invented that genre. It's been 30 years since I've heard it, was like running into an old friend. | |
| BB King...for a newbie The 'live at the Regal' is what most people think is his best, it is a goodie.If you don't mind a little Clapton mixed in with your BB that 'Riding with the King' is a great disc, some of the best playing Clapton has done in years. | |
| What's your favorite lyric from a song? Although not a big bowie fan -"Don't lean on me man cause you can't afford the ticket"and King Crimson's Epitaph:"When everyman is torn apart, with nightmares and with dreams,will no one lay the laurel wreath as silence drowns the screams..Confusi... | |
