| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading Tablejockey, man, they want $500 for the copy of Layla you provided a link to at Better Records. I do all right financially, but not to that degree. The Japanese SHM SACD that arrived yesterday will have to do. "Little Wing" is really good as you ... | |
| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading Jond, we’ve similar tastes in jazz. I’ve all the Miles Davis albums you listed except the Collectors Items. The ones I have on CD aren’t K2 issues. They’re only identified as RVG remasters on Prestige. The Monk Plays Duke Ellington is similarly id... | |
| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading Cd318, it is a shame vinyl records have declined in quality and almost went the way of the dodo. But finding reasonably good recordings in any medium is still something most of us can shoot for without heading towards bankruptcy if out current sys... | |
| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading Audioguy. I'll add MA recordings and Acoustic Sounds to a growing list of sources for well recorded music.Maybe I'll even give Mobile Fidelity a second chance. I still get aggravated by their original "high (actually low) quality" Dark Side of ... | |
| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading Pgaulked, it sounds like you are on the right track and some research is required prior to making any album or CD purchases anymore. Years ago you simply bought what was in the racks at the record store. With Layla alone there are an incredible nu... | |
| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading Tomcy6, actually that is very interesting and I’ll do just that. I enjoy reading about things like that by people who know what they’re talking about. Over the past year or two I’ve stumbled across some sites and Youtube videos where people like M... | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? Tomic601, I have had some luck adjusting the speakers positioning, even though it’s a pretty limited amount I can move them around to make adjustments. I’ve had to put off purchasing any books or anything else for that matter outside of groceries ... | |
| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading Tomcy6, thanks for the heads up on the Steve Hoffman Forums being a good source for discussions of different album releases. When doing a search on "Layla" that was one of a numberof sites that popped up. Next time around I’ll follow your advice a... | |
| A philosophical question. That's the fun of it, to learn about and appreciate new things. Now if you miss out on Tommy James and the Shondells, no big loss, but other things might a big loss to never understand, and great things to appreciate if you do get to. Maybe the Se... | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? Tomico, I did find and download the Vandertones but have no idea what to do with them yet. Mostly what I am doing now is only moving the A3’s laterally from 7’ to maybe 9" apart and adjusting their toe in. There’s really no a lot of play in what I... | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? Insearchofprat, that sounds like a good practical way to systematically adjust my current speakers location withing the restricted location parameters I’ve got to deal with. I’m not sure all of my new components are broken in thoroughly. The Magic... | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? Tomico60 and asvjerry, OK, I did google Fibbo sequence and came up with the Fibonnacci sequence. I’m guessing this is what you are talking about. Said something about the golden rule be an example. My golden rule is do unto others....... and leave... | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? Tomic60, Fibbo you say? | |
| Anyone have this kind of problem with their amp? Jim, I've no helpful suggestions, but had that identical problem with my Phase Linear 4000 Preamp's right channel off and on for over forty years. I took it to three different repairman over that time, and even back to the Phase Linear factory, wh... |
