| Takes one to know one I think that the way music appeals to each person will always be a mystery. I remember The Band since the beginning, and I was never moved by their music, or looked at it as much more than well done and competent. Still, over the years, whenever s... | |
| Why are so many people trying to sell Harbeths? That makes some sense. At least their product is worth the price. You may remember Talon loudspeakers. They did the same thing. They got some good press and immediately doubled their prices. Their speakers weren't good enough to justify those pric... | |
| Very Bad purchase from upscale audio Acoustic Zen Adagio audiozen,That may be true for tubes, but they are jerks otherwise. They don't say on their website that their showroom is by appointment only, and when I called them on it, they were rude, and reported me to Audiogon (whatever that means). | |
| Why are so many people trying to sell Harbeths? That doesn't account for the extreme rise, and it happened well before last year. | |
| Why are so many people trying to sell Harbeths? Having had a very nice audition with the Harbeth 40's years ago, I was really impressed, and to this day, I feel sure that I would be happy with them for a long time if not forever. Having said that, I have been shocked at the price increases. I r... | |
| HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETER GABRIEL! I was just listening to "So" a couple of nights ago. Mercy Street is a great song as well. | |
| Anne Murray My gay sister told me years ago that she had a big following among gay women, although I 'm pretty sure that she's straight.She does have a nice mellow voice. | |

| Chinese Class A SS I own a Cayin 265Ai 40 watt class A integrated amp that I bought here a little over a year ago, and the build and sound quality are really impressive. Beautiful inside and out. Sounds different from my 300b for sure, timbres aren't as lifelike (su... | |
| How can Wilson Audio speakers sound that good if they are using OEM drivers? Exotic and new obviously doesn't equate to better sound. Vintage speakers from Altec and JBL etc. are proof of that. Besides, a loudspeaker is a system whose performance depends on a balance of driver, crossover and enclosure design considerations... | |
| Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? The OP probably can't afford a good one, hence all of the bitterness. | |
| Adona Isolation Platforms I've used an Adona rack for 8 years and really like it. People will argue about sonic benefits but I think it makes the background quieter, and the music seems more free from the speakers in my set up. They are also strong, and they look very good... | |
| Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? Looks like the only thing that "SUCKS" is the OP's dumb question. | |
| Shopping at Goodwill anyone? I go to several Goodwill stores here in AZ once a week, but no luck with quality audio gear. Most of my scores are mid century ceramics from California, great signed handmade pottery, and other decorative stuff from Italy and other European countr... |
