| How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is? @jl35 Thanks for the info. I like the Oppo because of its Tidal streaming capacity. What would you recommend for a better transport that can still stream? | |
| Is R.E.M. underrated by new music nerds? @rlb61 "Driver 8" is a great example of what you observed. That manic drumming for the intro and post-chorus compared to his straight-ahead bridge playing. | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? Ready for some blasphemy? I prefer "Mercy Me" over "What's Going On" -- and Robert Palmer's cover of it over the original. | |
| Is R.E.M. underrated by new music nerds? @dz13 Good call on the college radio explosion of the 80's and how that helped so many bands reach an audience hitherto dependent on mainstream radio for musical exposure to the masses. | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? @garebear sorry, i failed to mention any of those artists you pointed out. because they're not. Please read more carefully. Also, your label of "typical lyrics and thumping noises" sounds like what Boomers' parents labeled rock. I guess getting ol... | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? @dabel Good call on CH. One of the few mainstream Latino-rap acts there. | |

| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? @jasonbourne52 cool. Please post a vid of you mc'ing with a boombox and a mic. I mean, if it's that easy, any idiot can do it, right? | |
| Help with Yamaha 801 pairing You may want to spend some of that 2500 budget on a good phono stage. Post a question on the analog forum here and see what people say. | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? @ghasley nice. I was think the same thing | |
| Help with Yamaha 801 pairing Your 801 puts out 100w and is an underrated, overpowered machine whose biggest fault us that it can be a bit flat in its presentation. Its pure direct is a sonic delight. Owning one, however, I will say its phono stage is a weak point. There are ... | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? @mp5viking A brilliant description of rock. Well done. | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? DJ Kool Herc - house parties in the early 70s | |
| 50 years of Hip Hop- How Come? @dayglow i doubt many here have been exposed to a decent hiphop immersion. |
