| Suggestion for more detail Poorguy,Have you listened to any of the really amazing Fantasy 45rpm Jazz reissues from Analog Productions? Some great sounding LPs like these will help you decide if it's a software or hardware issue...Cheers,Spencer | |
| Ode To Audio Clubs - Lunacy Loves Company Dirtyragamuffin,Cool, but you've got to work on that acronym, one more "S" and you've got yourself a NEWASS; talk about your system upgrades! | |

| I'm totally confused about Hi Rez formats Hands up for buying new vinyl. I recently bought new stuff from Elvis Costello, Jayhawks, Elliot Smith, Tift Merritt, and hope to soon get the New Allison Krauss and Patricia Barber. If funds weren't limited, I'd get the new Joss Stone, U2, all th... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? That would go fine with the Brittany Spaniel in my listening chair... | |
| I'm totally confused about Hi Rez formats Mgottlieb,From what I've read, more LPs are being sold than SACDs. If you think that vinyl is limited to "what was available in 1980, or reissues of it" then perhaps you the one "is just sticking your head in the sand. Or somewhere else." Plenty o... | |
| What is " lowball" search the archives, this has been recently discussed ad nauseum...Cheers,Spencer | |
| I'm totally confused about Hi Rez formats Rumor has it that Sony is about to stop or at least cut back on issuing new SACD software. There are other threads here discussing that aspect in detail. The biggest problem vs. CD is that there isn't enough good 2 channel sacd software. As alread... | |
| How are the blue note RVG CD's? FYI,Very nice photo-essay on RVG in the current issue of Tracks magazine(John Lennon on the cover). Of course, the photos are by Francis Wolff of Blue Note. Cheers,Spencer | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Zaikes,You are probably right. The reissue was pressed in 1995 and produced by Cuscuna, and doesn't have the bonus track. Nonetheless, it sounds pretty good, and I'd not have pegged it as digital source from the sound of it. Cheers,Spencer | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Zaikes,No, I haven't compared the two reissues. I ran into one used for $14, at Red Trumpet. It says Limited Edition, remastered by Michael Cuscuna on the label. Impulse IMP-170, 180g. It's no Fantasy 45rpm, but pretty nice.Rick was been kind enou... | |
| Amp help for the Maggies? Within your Budget, an Aragon amp would be the ticket. I've heard many Maggie setups, and bang-for-buck-wise, they are tough to beat. FWIW, agree with much of what Gregadd said about folks being too focused on power ratings, but when it comes to c... | |
| Comments on Thiel CS2.2 speakers It's really a parallel move to a different flavor. Have you not heard the 2.2s? They're very different from the 2CIs. The Vandersteens are warmer and more forgiving of moderate components upstream. The Thiels will provide more detail, possibly tig... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Zaikes, If you can find the Mingus, Mingus,... on imported vinyl, it's a winner! For me, now it's Yes - The Yes Album (rhino reissue)Jayhawks - Rainy Day MusicGrateful Dead - Skeletons From the ClosetPeter Gabriel - SoKeith Jarrett - Survivors' Su... | |
| Atma-Sphere M60 or David Berning ZH270? Laoyuap,Hopefully this will help...I own a Berning ZH270, and have heard both amps. Both are share many similar attributes in their sound, but for my ears, the Berning is playing in a different league than the M60s. Your observations about both ar... |
