| Who's Your Favorite Bass Players; Why? Normally I don't want to hear the bass player, just notice if he's gone. But there are exceptions:1. Scott LaFaro - because he is the greatest, most musical, most expressive, most talented player there ever was.2. Thomas Yearsley (formerly with Th... | |
| Are Zu Druids really good HE speakers? Miklorsmith,No tubes. All solid state gear. Maybe that was the problem. | |
| Are Zu Druids really good HE speakers? Tvad,Yikes! Good point. No harm intended toward unamed audio bud. I (me, I) just didn't get it. Perhaps I was experiencing an abnormally earwaxey kind of day. Yeah, that's it. | |
| suggestions cables for Andra by Eaglestoneworks Sounds like you have quite an awesome system. I too have speakers by EgglestonWorks, the Fontaines. These are the monitors which sit atop your Andra woofers. Personally, I do not believe all of the hype surrounding high-end cables: speaker, interc... | |
| Great sounding close to back wall speakers. My Eggleston Works Fontaines sound awesome at less than 24" from the wall (to the back of the speaker). But you'd have to find a pair used for your budget. | |
| Are Zu Druids really good HE speakers? A friend invited me to listen to his new Druids. He was thrilled. He felt he was finally "there". The smile on his face was as wide as the couch he was sitting on. His eyes beamed with joy and excitement. He was dumping his $10,000 speakers in fav... | |

| Looking for CDP w/tube output and upsampling I purchased a used Opera Audio Consonance Reference 2.2 CD player on Audiogon for $1000. However, I ended up listening to all of my jazz, acoustic, and other gentler music via the balanced outputs, which do not use the tube. And only use the RCA o... | |
| Subwoofers - 1 Martin Logan Depth or 2 Grottos? Thank you all for your help. I wish you all the highest fidelity. | |
| Where R U????? Null1, I lived in Toledo for 6 yrs, until 6 yrs ago when we moved to Atlanta. We lived in the Old West End on Virginia near Collingwood. I miss Fritz & Alfredo's, Timko's, Mano's, and the Middle Eastern restaurant (name?), the art museum, and ... | |
| Subwoofers - 1 Martin Logan Depth or 2 Grottos? My amplifier has pre-outs, but no inputs to the power amp so I cannot place the Vandy high-pass filter between the two to run to my main speakers.Anyway, I cannot centrally locate the subwoofer except for behind the listening area. My listening ar... | |
| Wife Acceptance Factor Luckily, I found a fantastic set of speakers on deep discount that also double as art (in my and my wife's opinions - EgglestonWorks Fontaines). So I deftly side-stepped the whole, "you're not putting that big ugly wrong-colored box in our living ... | |

| Where R U????? Originally Detroit. Hey Bigjoe, if Flint is the "armpit of the world", I guess that makes Detroit the a-hole of the world, with its constant flatulance belching from its smelly old smokestacks. But a great source for fantastic music. Now northwest... |
