Your favorite cd of Hammond B-3 organ ?
Booker T and the Drive by Truckers Potato Hole is a MUST buy. An awesome new release by a legend. 
Beatles Mono Boxes Good news more on the way

Beatles Remasters: Mono vs. Stereo Debate Thread
In my last post I should really say more natural LESScompressed sound of the older material - because they were already using tubes and analog tape recorders to perform audio compression - even in those days! 
Beatles Remasters: Mono vs. Stereo Debate Thread
Barrelchief, as of now, mono versions are only available by purchasing the boxed set. Originally limited to 10,000 sets in the USA, now supposedly issuing 50,000 mono boxed sets. Given that the MONOS seem to be in hot demand and are generally reg... 
New Beatles remasters
It is so dynamic and clear and exciting to hear the bass, different guitar parts, and Ringo's drumming Ringo is a much better drummer than I thought, and Paul is a much better bass player than I ever dreamed. The early albums have kick drum and ba... 
Why so few high end line arrays?
Darkmoebius,You are correct. You have to design line arrays carefully to take into account lobbing and nulls. They work very well when properly designed and will ensure a higher SPL reaches further out into the audience at a sports or rock arena e... 
volume level and xlr
It is possible your amp is expecting pro audio levels on the XLr and therefore it is atenuated somewhat when you use XLR with a device that does not output pro audio (+4 dBU).Roughly speaking, consumer uses cheaper components and runs at (10 dbV =... 
Why so few high end line arrays?
Tbg,This is audiogon. Laws of physics are very often suspended here. Our favorite products do everything perfectly with no drawbacks or compromises to our favored designs. ;-)For those with line arrays, this explanation is one of the simplest I ha... 
Smallest speakers that ROCK
Barefoot MM27 HxWxD 20.5 x 9.5 x 15.25 inches are small but can definitely rock. Heavy but compact and will really do justice to a drum set. 
New Beatles remasters
In any case the monos are freaking amazing, just need to light some incense and twist one up....Yes I posted on another thread - the Monos are the ones to go for unless you need audio compression to hear things clearly (if you are using an iPod o...

ATC SCM 11 Vs SCM 19...Need immediate suggestion
But I was just worried because an SCM-40 is a substantial floorstander to look at my room normally works best with big bookshelves rather than floorstanders So what I meant is LESS of a problem than other floorstanders, however, you still need to... 
ATC SCM 11 Vs SCM 19...Need immediate suggestion
Anybody know what ATC is using for cabinet materials? And the damping material internally? The SCM20 uses 18mm MDF damped with bitumen pads and double thick baffle and filled with acoustic wadding. Cabinets are made in Germany, I believe.The cabi... 
ATC SCM 11 Vs SCM 19...Need immediate suggestion
But I was just worried because an SCM-40 is a substantial floorstander to look at my room normally works best with big bookshelves rather than floorstanders ATC are criticically damped in the bass. You don't get big bass with ATC - wrong type spe...
