Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?
My post from 2006 stands - still rockin' the contractor white '93 Ford F250 V10 4x4 pickup. Oy. 
Listening to Kenny Burrell Midnight Blue
Sweet! I suggest these two as well: "with John Coltrane"; and "A Night at the Vanguard (Complete Edition)". 
Recommendations for Arab and Mid-Eastern fusion.
I loves me some oud for sure. Check out Anouar Brahem. My fav is on ECM, "Le pas du chat noir". 
Best 2.0 powered computer speakers?
Adam F7s for sure! I realize the company is in financial trouble, but the quality of audio from these cannot be denied. 
Recommendations on Christmas Music??
By far, my all-time fav is "Mas! A Caribbean Christmas Party" on Rykodisc. It is THE BEST! 
Marcin Wasilewski Trio--Spark of Life

Have had mine for couple years. Awesome sound quality - clean, organic, meaty, dimensional, etc. Vocals, piano, guitar - all awesome and natural sounding. Good bass, best mids, excellent highs.Terrific reliability and great support from Vlad. Tube... 
Your Dream/Team Rock Band
+1 for Adrian Belew. Good call Cz. 
Freak Me Out
Mano Negra's "Putas Fever". What a crazy (and delightful) bunch of MoFos these guys are. Crazy mix of styles. 
What is better 1 bigger sub or 2 small ones
Multiple subs are harder to set up properlyI also disagree with this statement. I agree that it is possibly more difficult. But not necessarily. Once again, it depends. For example, if the room is such that placement of a single sub disallows it t... 
What is better 1 bigger sub or 2 small ones
Agree with the, "it depends", viewpoints. However, do not forget that subwoofers are speakers too. So do not percieve or treat them with any less consideration than your main speakers.
