Roger Waters Live Last Night in Glendale,AZ
The music he created which is some of the most iconic in 50 years was created with all members of Pink Floyd. One could not have done without the other.  Have to face facts. Once in a lifetime artists are eccentric. Their music was created by and...

orgillian197 - My suggestion for you is research artists personal beliefs before you buy their music or attend any live event. Do the same with actors before watching television and movies. Research CEO beliefs and positions before buying any of t...

Read about his childhood. His father was killed in World War II when Roger was 5 months old. As you research Roger you begin to understand why a man would grow to have the beliefs he did. Roger has resented the fact that he never knew his father ...

Going to a Roger Waters concert it entertainment. He is an actor on a stage. Nothing more. He is not going to change the course of history or effect the world order in any way. His music gives you the first hint as to what his show is all about. A...

Used to be a pass time for people with an interest in music and the search for ever improving reproduction.  Now the forums deteriorate like any other form of public facing media. A downward spiral of poor taste and ignorance.  Looks like this t...

Its not vinyl
I remember one comment made by another poster somewhere on the Vinyl vs Digital topic. Stated that it really comes down to preference. With the equipment available for both, they are both capable of incredible sound. I have owned both and have to ... 
Where to invest the most in the "digital chain"?
I purchased DB Audio modified Mac mini and his DAC with all options. I also have an Audio Research CD player. The Audio Research and the DB Audio system are close but my preference goes to the Mac mini + DAC. I have used a streamer linked to the i... 
SkyfiAudio
I purchased a mint Audio Research CD player a couple years ago which arrived exactly as advertised. It is still performing as they advertised. The packing and shipping was without a problem which I can not say about other experiences. The price wa... 
Politics and Music
CrustyCoot, Well said. I share your observations on 60's counterculture and the fact that there was an equal and opposing view very active at the time. That view did not cause the outrage that was covered by the press. Nor did that view create cov... 
Advice needed re: new CD player purchase
TO JJSS49, the ARC CD player I just bought is a CD2. Low mileage but all the advice on the laser and mechanicals is probably a good idea. I should probably just contact ARC to see if I can have the parts that age replaced. I also have an Audiophil...
