| Operas... Any fans? Aaron Copeland's "The Tender Land" Very accessible for someone who is just beginning to get into opera. Sung in English. Story is of a Midwest farming community, and a young girl's high school graduation/coming of age celebration. | |
| Your favourite recordings that everyone else hates Xiekitchen,You post made me pull out my copy of "Close to the Edge" today. After a thorough cleaning on the machine, you're right: HARSH! However, the emotional ties to my youth associated with that album, seeing them live on the tour supporting t... | |
| 3.6 Maggie owners input needed on amps........... Aragon amps mate very well with Magnepans. | |
| Songs of the sea and shanties How about Great Big Sea? They hail from St. Johns, NF and have recorded some great shanties and songs of the sea, using guitar, fiddle, bhodran, pennywhistle, flute. Their live recording "Road Rage" has some of their better material on it as well ... | |
| How do they MIC a symphony? Kublakhan,Funny you should post this thread when you did. On Tuesday July 22nd, I attended the Philadelphia Orchestra doing the Beethoven Violin Concerto with Itzak Perlman. They were recording the performance (probably for their archives), and I ... | |
| Time machines "Who's Next" For me it's 1975 all over again: Boston Garden The Who have just launched into their third song : "Baba O'Reilly". Moon is wailing on his drum kit, all you see is his head and his arms flailing around. Suddenly, he disappears, as does... | |

| Recommend aftermarket power cords on turntables? I use a cryo version Virtual Dynamics Power 3 with my Scout and have been quite happy with it. | |
| Surge Protection? You are the perfect candidate for whole-house surge protection. Contact your local electric utility or a qualified electrician about a surge device right at the service panel for the whole house. I had it done when I had the dedicated lines put in. | |
| Magnepan ribbons problems To follow up my previous post, the responses re: power are oh-so-correct. The MGIIIA (all 3.X series and up), demand power, current and finesse. I have driven mine with the Sunfire Signature, and the Aragon Palladium Monos, both put out >400 WP... | |
| Magnepan ribbons problems Cemil,What kind of power amp are you driving them with? I have a pair of 1987 vintage MGIIIA with the ribbon tweeters, and they have been replaced once since new, back in 1992. | |
| Rack/stand for VPI Scout Hi Winston,I did the following for my Scout: Salamander Archtype 2.0 with spikes, removed the top shelf and replaced it with a custom cut and drilled slab of 3/4" black granite. On top of the granite I use 4 Mapleshade Isoblock footers. Resting on... | |
| Building a dedicated room Dragon1952,Thank you man! I have not had such a laugh in a long time.When I first started looking at it, I was looking for an April 1st date on it. The clincher was the picture at the bottom of the double wide, and the delivery only in Appalachia ;) | |
| I need a female jazz vocalist. No Krall, No Norah Ella Fitzgerald. Get yourself a nice pressing of "Clap Hands, Here Comes Charlie", sit back, and enjoy the ride. | |
| Denon 103? Shure V15? AT OC9? guidance My choice of the 3 would be the Denon. I'm not familiar with the phono stage in your amp. The reason I state this is that the Denon 103 is a low output MC. Can your amp handle a low output cart? If you can stretch your budget just a bit you might ... |
