| Audio Points between monitor and stand? Thank you Ray and Krell for your replies.Thank you Ray for that most kind offer. I am considering several of his products, any of which I can return if not satisfied. So i'll be ordering the small ones to try on my mains, along with other larger o... | |
| Can "Dark"Sounding Speakers Be "Brightened"UP??? IME, I believe it might be possible. My soft dome tweeters are not bright sounding by any means. When on the wire merry-go-round I tried a few silver plated copper interconnects which did brighten up the highs. But compared to copper, I did not li... | |
| Audio Points between monitor and stand? Thank you for your reply Roxy54. I've heard the SP101 in action on a friend's speakers - remarkable. They are my long term goal to afford. But in the mean time, Robert suggested the tiny points between monitors and stands. My concern is that the m... | |
| Donald Byrd Odd, but as much as I greatly like him when accompanying other bands, I don't like any of his material as leader. I enjoy his sound and solos in other bands, but not his lead. | |

| Speakers to consider around 5k used? Where are you located? | |

| How to get the impact of a live concert? Ralph - Thank you for that explanation. Every time I read one of your technical posts I want to rush out and buy one of your amplifiers. Some day that just might happen! | |
| Best beer Recently had a La Trappe Quadruple on draft at a Belgian beer garden, Victoire, in Rochester, NY. Very tasty. | |
| R.I.P. Andy Williams I never liked the kind of music he sang, especially when sung by his peers. But every time he appeared on TV I was glued to the set. I found his voice very appealing and always enjoyed his performances. | |
| When was the last time you listened to live music? +1 Elizabeth.Got all excited about a bluegrass performance at local, historic, small theater (seats maybe 200?). Sitting in a back row I easily conversed with two of the performers on stage at normal volume. Once the show started they fired up the... | |
