| Sloppy but Famous Contest I found this to be true with Susan Tedeschi. She resolved her situation by marrying a better player. ;^) | |

| Weird Band Names. I have a CD from the BASSHOLES. I giggle-snorted first time I saw it. | |
| help me decide speakers for two channel audio In that price range and box style, I would seriously consider EgglestonWorks Andra III. I have the Fontaines, and they are exquisite. I added two powered subs to mine because they are only the top three drivers of the Andra - they are missing the ... | |
| Thinking I need a Sub... Yes! If you are able, get two. Although I cannot comment on specific REL subs, I think all small monitors require subs. | |
| the greatest pop song ever? The Band's, "The Weight". | |
| Front Ported v. Rear Ported Speakers FWIW, I plugged my ports (EgglestonWorks Fontaines, dual rear ports) and raised the crossover points on my subs. It did seem to improve the clarity of the upper mids and HFs somewhat, but I lost too much of the "meat" of the sound to keep them thi... | |
| What music do you use to assess your system? I just realized I did not really answer your question. Sorry. I will try to find my auditioning discs and list the tracks, and why they were chosen. | |

| To Vandersteen or not to Vandersteen Granted, not the best of conditions at dealer showrooms and audio show, but IMO: 2Ce seemed nice enough for small jazz combo and girl with guitar, but not more dynamic jazz or rock - did not seem to be able to properly handle/sort out the music; T... | |
| To Vandersteen or not to Vandersteen As much fantastic press and reviews these get, I've heard 2Ce, Treo, and two different Model 7, and did not like any of them. No admonishment, just sayin'. Good luck! | |
| Miles Davis The Original Mono CD's What I HATE about this box set is the last CD. WTF!? Four cuts from Miles at Newport 1958 and two from Monk 1963. How much more disjointed can you get? This is a one disc hatchet job of an original double CD release that I'd never buy to begin wit... |
