Hegel Mohican & Bryston BCD3 @jafant .. really like everything but Opera, hard core country and rap.Heavy into Progressive Rock, 70's classic rock, Jazz and Jazz fusion, and some folk like Fairport Convention, Pentangle etc. Only listen to classical on my Bose Wave radio, rar... | |
One big reason why brick and mortar high end audio dealers struggle. Over the last 15 years been in 3 audio shops.The first one I went into to buy a power conditioner, and while there asked about a used CD player they had for sale.

Hegel Mohican & Bryston BCD3 recently bought a Mohican, and looking forward to comparing it to my VPI prime with Audio Technica Art9 cartridge.Initial impressions are really good but awaiting a pre-amp repair to fully compare the two. | |

My Experience With Tekton @ missioncoonery .. not shilling, I've never heard any Tektons, was just pointing out that Stereophile's Herb Reichert and Jonathan Atkinson apparently hear Tekton differently than you.Who's credibility should one take, theirs or yours? I noticed... | |
My Experience With Tekton In the spirit of 'pouring gasoline on the fire' may I point out the Tekton impact monitors made the Stereophile recomended component list for 2021 where JA commented on their 'superbly even on axis response' JA concluded 'this unusual design is no... | |
Getting into Stevie Ray Vaughn +1 on the DVD Live At El Mocambo .. his cover of Hendrix's Third stone from the sun is fantastic.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYEEovuhsgY | |
Favorite Guitar Solo I agree not a fair question, like picking your favorite pistachio in a 10 lb bag. But for homesickness played thru a guitar, Son Seals 'going back home'https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=son+seals+going+back+home | |

A CHEAP AND VERY EFFECTIVE RECORD CLEANING SOLUTION. Been wondering if BasicH would be good in my SpinClean, it lowers the surface tension of water (making water wetter) ... I've been using it for decades to clean outside house windows, doesn't hurt the gardens underneath and also to wash my car so ... | |

Suggest one obsure album we all should hear @sima01 ... shame the other Hank Dogs 'Half Smile' is half as good, only 2 or three songs of note on that one.Steeleye Span's first album 'Hark the village wait' features two killer female vocals too, for some unknown reason one of them dropped ou... | |
