| what are you listening to lately? Marco,In order to keep the "Smoking Loon" wines a secret, I just got back from my wine store. I bought out their stock of both the Cabernet AND the Merlot. I think I wound up with about a case of each, give or take a bottle. Come on over, and brin... | |
| "Appalachian Journey" SACD RCprince,As soon as I hit submit, I went "gulp", Buchanon is a dead character actor. Meyer, Meyer, Meyer... Too much Smoking Loon Cabernet last night. Another post I called someone O'Connell instead of McConnell. | |
| Which artists do you just not get? Dcwinton,Interesting comments on the Dead/Phish comparisons. I am a long time Dead afficionado (since 1973), and done the whole taper thing, amassing thousands of hours of material. Dick's Picks and the From The Vault series are HQ godsends to fan... | |
| What was your latest LP find?? A VG+ "Belafonte at Canegie Hall" w/VG++ cover. Gave it a good cleaning, new sleeves, and a poly sleeve over the cover. Not a Belafonte fan, I confess I have not even played it yet. But, for $1.00 at a flea market, why not? | |
| Audio House Slap,Mine is in the living room now, with a scaled down 5.1 HT RPTV setup in the family room. The rig is reaching the point where I have to compromise the decor of the living room. Something I don't want to do. My ever-so-understanding spouse woul... | |
| Audio House Slappy,How about buying a house in your price range with a two car garage, keep the cars in the driveway, convert the garage into an audio room? Garages are an empty slate. If you are into DIY, you can put together a well insulated, good sounding ... | |
| Best speakers for $500 or less Second the SD 300ti. Perhaps even the Sound Dynamics RTS3,In a bigger size, Magnepan MMG at 550.00/pair factory direct. One of the best buys in audio IMHO. | |
| what are you listening to lately? Marco,Saw "16 horsepower" open one time for Bob Weir/Ratdog. Landmark Theatre in Syracuse, NY March 1999."Smoking Loon" gotta go get a coupla cases of that stuff. I Love the cork: WHOO,WHOO,WHOO,COUGH,WHOO,WHOO | |
| what are you listening to lately? Had some folks over last night to audition the new Dave Matthews solo effort "Some Devil"We also listened to a Rykodisc world music release "Music of Upper and Lower Egypt" Followed it up with Thelonius Monk's "Brilliant Corners" mono version on V... | |
| Anyone ever converted their garage? Thanks for the responses guys! Did you do the work yourself? I'm thinking the ASC Iso-wall, staggered studs, and removing, the doors and tracks. My biggest concern is going to be HVAC. I might be able to extend the ductwork, as there are two runs ... | |
| Best version of Sonny Rollin's Saxophone Colossus? Second the 45 | |
| Turntable stands Take a look at the stand I built in Virtual Systems. Easy to modify, quite heavy and rigid: "DIY Audio Rack ala Jeffloistarca" The trick (if you have an unsuspended table), as TWL says is to make sure you not only have a rigid structure, but one t... | |
| Philadelphia area audio club? Rushton,Dan, and others:I don't know if you've been following my Southern NJ club thread, but I am offering my home and system for listening and fellowship for folks on both sides of the river as well. I have heard from a couple of folks so far bu... | |
| New Jersey (Southern) Club? to those of you who responded about trying to get together, it looks like a weekend is the best. I will get some dates lined up and we'll see what works.If you are coming, please think about bringing some of your music with you as I thought we mig... |
