Is Rap a valid musical form?
I say definitely it is.   Not my taste, but yes, definitely.  
Sale on Marantz PM Ki Ruby Integrated!
Wow.  I just ordered the CD/SACD unit, as a back-up for when companies drop disc players for streaming.  Thanks for the notice!

Beautiful Music That Reduce You To Tears
I tried to paste a link to Steve Earle doing Tecumseh Valley, failed at that, but think it's one of those that are asked about here.  For me it definitely is.   
Most highly anticipated LP reissues on 2022?
Steve is a well-known opinionated a-hole.  He has had tons of tragedy in life so one would think he could be a bit kinder and not so critical of others.  Again, his talent can stand on its own.  Envy, jealousy, what is it that motivates it?  Wish ...

The speakers finally got here Thursday night, and Steve and his partner showed up Friday to unbox them and place them in my room (thank you Steve).  I have been playing music all day and night through them since.  They have been opening up and set...

Not manufactured any more.
tomic601 I heard those original Beveridge monsters at Harmony House 2 in NYC when I was a graduate student, poor graduate student. Harold himself was there to present them, I was amazed at the sound. That store was magnificent. Joe Grado once came...

Replacing Von Shweikert's VR 2

Thank you Nonoise, an excellent review of the loudspeakers.  I am now even more eager for them to be here.  Soon.  I have three options for driving them (well, maybe 4), and will try them each in turn.  Three tubed, one ss.
